    Talking NEW OWNER AND MEMBER

    Hi! I am a new member here and I've had my Daytona Grey RS6 Avant for a few weeks. I'm based in Sweden.

    Just like I raced my RS4 I plan to race my new beast as well at Nürburgring.
    If you can help with what tires to get for the ultimate performance as well as brake pads (Pagid?) I'd ve very happy.

    The car was debadged when I bought it, but I re-badged it since I really like the red color in the logo on the Daytona Grey.

    Here are the pictures Erik took of my car last week.

    We took this last picture just to p**s a few americans off. LOL!

    Congrats George!

    Save your seating and mirror settings, then it *should* now function, that it now knows which setting to return to.

    Turn your adjustment selector knob to the right mirror (rather than centered) and it should go down when you engage reverse.

    Drilled rotors were standard on later US cars. Earlier ones came without.

    George,
    Congratulations my friend. I sure wish you could bring to Shelby/Charlotte next time you are in town so we could meet up. Oh well… I know you are going to enjoy it. I can not wait to see pictures.

    Does anyone dare take on the task of cataloging the RS6's with location? :MTM:

    well, this I tried first because that's the same way all my S cars worked, but no go. Couple calls to the dealer - result being "Recaro seats have no memory option so the right side mirror will not tilt down with reverse gear ...."

    I will follow up with them on Monday.
