Almost spit out my coffee reading this at the office....and I agree!! They took all the worst style elements from the Z serious...(a seriously butt ugly car) and decided that they would propagate them across the rest of the line. I love the E46 body style, but the E90 is.....what is the word.....HIDEOUS

 

I agree. I love Audis but I can't stand the new front end. Why do they always have to change things? If it aint broke, don't fix it. I'll keep with the last body style. It will be good looking for years to come.

 

Hi abacab, you're giving very good advice, I agree.

The RS6 is easy to chip and mod if you want, and who wouldn't. I don't know about the E55. I do know that the E55 has one hell of a "nanny" in it's management system and I'm not sure if you can bypass it or not. I don't think you can.

Either way you are in the high 11s in what looks like (almost) a stock A6 4.2. (I saw one debadged on the freeway once and I had to look twice to figure out what it was.)




I love the RS6 over the E55 in just about every way.
I'm also considering the trade-up.
I like the ebony pearl or daytona gray pearl.


What do you think?

 

I like the daytona grey with the dark interior. Now I just need to get my cash flow situation where I want it and make the move. I've got a cousin that is a car dealer. I'm going to have him place the call for me and see if dealers can get a better deal from other dealers. One would think so, but on an RS6 - I don't know. Anything is better than thinking that I paid full price. I could wait for one to pop up in a dealer auction, but it seems unlikely that I would get the color combo that I want in such a rare car - without waiting forever that is.

Very nice!

I see that it's at the same dealer where I got my S4.

There are a few RS6's a little lower in price.

I saw a Daytona Gray Pearl for about $60,000.00 with 30,000 miles on it. With the Silver interior and Audi Certified extended warranty.
I think if you can get one for about $55,000.00 and around 30,000 miles, buy it.

 

Just checked AutoTrader...25 RS6's listed...$77k to $15K...but really there are only 2 at $15k and I dont think you can trust those.
All the other RS6's are between $77k and $55K. I emailed one of the listing parties at $15k to find out if the car was legit. Waiting for an answer.

 

I found the ones your talking about Abacab.
Looks shady!

I called the phone numbers, and didnt get any answer

How interesting though. I bought a salvage title NSX once for 20,000
and it was a good enough car...but the descriptions the guy gave about the cars raises my warning sensor

Im sure you know what I mean, but please tell me what happens.

 

They have not answered....I don't think they are going to... Strange that they would put in such a glowing description of the cars, when anyone that knows anything about cars would know that they were so underpriced that something was up.

I saw a silver RS6 today.....man it looked sooooo sweet!
I also saw a red NSX today...dont see too many of those here in ny. I really liked the styling on those when they came out, but they look a bit dated today.

 

I saw these a while ago. Some say that the NSX is gone for good. Others say that Acura is bringing it back.
