Re: Official pics and info: new Audi RS6

I always had the hots for performance wagons and this one takes the cake. 580HP is just mind blowing. Hopefully the price tag won't be. That 0-200 time of 14.9 secs, must be a joke. It should be < 13 secs with that much power.

Awwwww maaaan!! This über-wagon is hottt! There isn't anything visually wrong with the exterior, it all looks so well sorted and aggressive.

And those numbers...rediculous!! Those factory times must be with a full passenger load and a cargo container on the roof. I just hope this thing isn't too expensive.

Re: Official pics and info: new Audi RS6

The power output of the car is quite impressive: 580HP and 650Nn

The acceleration numbers from Audi are too conservative.

Is it a tiptronic automatic transmission, or is it a DSG?

Re: Official pics and info: new Audi RS6

^tiptronic auto..

i hope the DSG comes with the sedan

Revealed: Audi RS6 Avant

Images of Audi’s new super-wagon has appeared ahead of the car’s unveiling at next week’s Frankfurt Motor Show. According to the guys over at Jalopnik, the new RS6 will be sporting a V10 engine with FSI technology and two turbos bolted on.
We recently reported that leaked vehicle chassis codes for the new Audi RS6 specced the output from its twin-turbo V10 engine at 571hp (426kW). However, new information from a source at Audi has put this figure in doubt. The reliable source claims that the 571hp will only be the specified figure Audi will market the car with. True output will be upwards of 600hp, with 610hp (455kW) pegged as the most likely figure.
It looks like Audi is taking no chances with the ultimate “wolf in sheep’s clothing” model and even BMW’s excellent V10 motor will struggle to compete with this kind of power output.

Re: Official pics and info: new Audi RS6

Screw the E60 M5 + W211 E63, C6 RS6 OWNS!!!

Wow!!! Simply incredible: The power, the design, the technology... Oh my... I think I'm in luuuuvvv.... Can't wait to see the sedan, since that is more than likely the only version of the RS6 we will be getting.

Damn. If true, those numbers puts the RS6 in a different price segment from the competition.

It probably won't be that high. Currency conversions are almost never accurate, as there are other factors that need to be factored into the equation, many of which we are not privy to.

Re: Official pics and info: new Audi RS6

Hey,

If anyone here would be willing to grab an english Euro spec(of course) brochure for the C6 RS6 for me and drop it in the mail, once they're out, let me know.

Thanks!

Re: Official pics and info: new Audi RS6

hottest wagon ever. the interior also seems to be miles ahead of the regular a6. love that fender too, it pays homage to the original quattro.

 

[warot]

Re: Official pics and info: new Audi RS6

Easily the best wagon money can buy right now... and easily my favorite Audi at the moment. Yes even over the R8.

Wow what a stunner. Thanks guys.

 

[Deutsch]

Re: Official pics and info: new Audi RS6

I'll take both an R8 and RS6 Avant. Thank you.

I'm slightly concerned how the flared, Ur Quattro style flares will look on the sedan. I also have to wonder why they didn't premiere the sedan alongside the Avant?

Sedan please!

Re: New Audi RS6

Beat E63AMG and M5 Touring!
GO GO GO!Audi RS6

Re: New Audi RS6

Uh oh, Audi has done it now. BMW and Mercedes will have to offer 600hp the next 5 and E. Ridiculous, but I love it.

This car is suffice to say beyond awesome. The look, power, and interior just a searing Audi effort. Look for the E63 and M5 to be beaten soundly by most accounts.

I'd like to see a 3.8-3.9 0-60 time from this, but it is few pounds heavier than the previous RS6. The sedan is what I want to see now.

Re: Official pics and info: new Audi RS6

I think that Audi has achieved a tour de force with this engine.
That V-10 puts out more than a Gallardo!! But of course it has more weight to carry.

Even though I'm not a huge fan of fast wagons, I'd pick then RS6 Avant over the M5 touring and the E63 wagon in a heart beat.

Now I wonder if this V-10 will ever find its way inside a Gallardo or an R8.
Does anyone here have any gossip they'd like to share?

Re: New Audi RS6

THE GREATE'S OF THEM ALL Can't wait to try this in person!

Re: Official pics and info: new Audi RS6

I was hoping for 800nm but 650nm is alright but not much better than E63. Lets see how its going to perform. Weight and Qauttro might be a disadvantage in high speeds. Time will tell.

and the price its exactly what I have said for a long time.
