Wow.
What's an "every box ticked " price?

Without wanting to say I told you so, I always had this down as 100k give or take. I think that's a big ask. I'd sooner spec an R8 V10 plus.

Tbf, the std spec is very good.

It doesn't 'need' much else

Agreed, hard to resist at that dollar though!

My dealer said if I don't want to be screwed on resale I must select the Dynamic Plus package and sun roof.

He reckons punters don't care bout ceramic brakes but are willing to cough up £10K for 191mph bragging rights!

I would like winter tyres and wheels, a €4K option in Germany but not available here. At least dealer stored as per BMW. Does anyone have an Audi with winter tyres?

The carbon pack looks good but £4,250! What cost just to paint the Matt aluminium bits black at local body Shop? Just grill surround, roof rails and side window frames

The Dynamic Plus package for £10k is ridiculous !!!!

£4k for matt paint is also bonkers...you'd choose Audi Exclusive or custom paint for £2k over that all day everyday!!

And whilst its nice to have the carbon optics option, that's the only way to get black optics, so £4k for black optics pack is ridiculous!

Will be great Used buys in 3yrs, can see these dropping £50k in no time !

Interesting to see how the s6 holds up... 30k difference in price but the s6 is already bonkers fast on the road. Wouldn't take much to turn up the wick to 500+ so not a huge amount in it for most people.

Is this through your Audi dealer? I was told no dealer will store wheels/tyres.

Thanks

If you can find one which I suspect will be the issue. With this pricing, and Audi unlikely to make the error that they did forward ordering stock of C6, I can see them being a rarity. Add to that the appeal of the S6, and this stacks up less still.
