    Talking RS6 --> TDi

    Just a bit of useless information which I thought was quite funny.

    A friend of mine has a friend who owns a RS6. To keep filthy fingers off of his car he's got rid of the RS6 logo's and put a TDi logo at the rear. Hmm... I guess those alloys and the rims (etc. etc.) won't say a thing about what's really underneith the hood, right?

    I would love to see a "TDi" outrun a Porsche on a strip.

    I'm not so sure I would remove the RS6 logos and add a TDI instead..

    First of all, most Audi-fans would recognize a RS6 in a parking lot, even if it had a TDI logo on the back..

    After all, it isn't exactly looking like a normal A6.. With the chrome mirrors (and rails), dual enormous exhaust pipes and the RS front and rear..

    And personally I would stydy closely an A6 TDI if it looked as fat as an RS6 even if it was fake..

    I've seen a S8 with 1.9 TDI logo. It did NOT look good.

    Any car thieves will have no trouble in recognizing an RS6, I think the owner is only fooling himself.

    I know, it's easy even to tell the difference between a S6 and a RS6... And no, i wouldn't switch logo either.

    Someone said something like "anyone would recognize it in a parking lot", hell my RS6 (if I had one) wouldn't be standing still for a second..

    You'd need a lot of work to transform the looks of an RS6 into a stealth V6 TDI with "oversized wheels from a tuner" ...

    Probably the easiest/cheapest way to give it a lower profile/camouflage would be to give it the S6 look by replacing the wheels with the well-known 17" S6 standard ones and found some smaller circle exhaust-ends.
    That'd probably fool a bunch of "so-so fans" who'd wouldn't go any further to "eliminate" it as a member of the S3/S4/S6/S8 family (if they don't get too close).

    But you may not want to go that way... ;-)

    True true...

    But I stil think that the easiest way to keep fingers off of a car is to buy a simple sticker (which you do want to be able to remove =) with: "Nevermind the dog, beware of the owner!" :devil:
