...why daytime driving lights -just to atract attention...now turned off

God it is good though-lot more subtle than the previous model,speed is masked and the interior feels very special.

Congrats JBW

I keep driving past a black one at my dealer....the idea is growing on me. I have a 6+ at the moment, 5 years old this November, had it from new, loved every minute of it and I really don't know what to do. There's only one replacement that's for sure!

Enjoy and post us some pics if you can.

I've got an RS6 in Sepang for the weekend from Audi UK.
Massive power & ability; sense of detachment in driving feedback; great for motorways and country lanes but not a city car; Will drive the less torquey RS4 cab, as it seems to make most sense that I keep my existing RS6.

Two RS6's in the family is total madness ... changing the V8 for a V10 also seem mad .... I'd appreciate feedback if I've missed something ... your thoughts would be appreciated ...

Pics to follow once I have cleaned it -too busy at the moment-have you driven one yet -interior is very special and a step up

It is very detached compared with the previous model,but that seems to the way forward at the moment,and I do not want anyone to hear me coming from miles away-for that I need a lowered Saxo :)
Just as well petrol prices are easing !
