Afternoon All,

Currently I am very lucky to have been loaned a C6 from Audi and I must say what a car!

Following a chump in a M5 this morning and happend to pull alongside a the lights, now it's not normal for me to get involved in such things!, but seeing as he was up for a challange I thought I would see what it was really like......Well why I did I bother?, in Sport mode I took off and although I could hear him scream the backside off it he just kept on going backwards

At the next set of lights he gave me a nod and then lowered he head and shook it and his car.

What a great way to start a day.

I found the the C6 does not have that 'boyish' & 'hands on' feel of the RS4, but it has a superb gearbox & superb ride comfort coupled with astonishing power, especially with a Stage 1 remap to 700 bhp.

Wnelson .. Will you be buying a C6 ?

With the current economic climate and first child on the way, uncertain! But I do love that burble when it shifts gear!

And with the Miltek exhaust, that burble is accentuated. Even before the engine is started, I'm amazed at the number of stares I receive, and when the ignition starts, the background noise gains even more heads.

Driving on French country lanes, the C6 is just awesome. However I am considering a different type of car to add to the garage .. a V6 Clio, RS Focus, Clio Cup, Mitsubishi Evo or even a B7 RS4.

The C5 and the C6 are both fantastic, and I know a B7 would great too ... I'm being accused of 'fantasy shopping' but I know each car has its own merits. By driving different cars, one appreciates the differences !

Hi Jeremy,

Did you have the Cat back Milltek or full system?

Kind regards,
Nigel

V good question to which my guess would be 'full system' but I will check ...

Apologies .. I am wrong ... I have a "Cat back" ..

I presume that means from the Cat Converters backwards .. what is the difference for the driver ?

Cost. Noise.

Noise levels very acceptable. Drove car 700 miles from UK to France .. sheer brilliance.

Around the country lane the sounds are fabulous ...

Think I'm sold on the Milltek then!!
