Default 255 bhp?

The current Avant A6 has 255bhp. Does that amount of hp feel sluggish or under powered for such a large vehicle?

Anyone have experience with this car?

Thanks,.
JJ

Stock the A6 2.7t had 250hp and its for sure not slow. I think you will find 255 to be plenty while crusing and you will be able to get off the line pretty quick as well.

I would say the parts are stronger than the a6... that is really the only great part about the avant. The extra HP isn't that great but is a great car to mod. I just got a 2001 a6 2.7T tipronic now with 320 HP chipped. It is a fun car that grabs eyes from people the age 16-80?!?!?!?! I am currently 20 and almost own my audi!! Def get one for the looks and how it rides smooth at 130 and u don't notice!

Wammy,
In a new A6, wouldn't a "chip" void the warranty?

Cheers,
