RS6 vs RS6+ difference ?

Post by rsrodders » Wed Aug 10, 2011 10:04 pm

I'm hopfully Buying a RS6 C5 very soon, but was wondering what are the specific differences between the RS6 and the RS6+, and if i did go for the + am i able to tune it as much as the RS6.

Regards
Clive

It's essentially the same car. The plus has a tune that gives it 30hp more, but no more torque. The tuning potential is the same.

But if you are going to denature the car, then might as well get a standard 6 and save yourself some money. The plusses will grow in value but probably only if they are unmolested.

lowered suspension (spring ?!)
additional cooling
remap (+30BHP)
RNSE DVD Sat Nav
Natural Leather
Exclusive colours (Sprint, Metallic Silver)
Optics
Titan Wheels
Sports Exhaust (bit louder than stock)
nice little Plaque and exclusivity
only 04/54 plates

If you have a decent budget, go for a Plus

my old silver one is at Nick Johnson ... I bought it off the original owner (forum member on here) ... spent thousands on it getting it 100% perfect. Its got 104k on the clock but has NO WEAR whatsoever

he's had it for sale 8 months, so im sure you could strike a deal !

Sorry for the thread hijack, but I was wondering what you think of the revo map and the power delivery? Do you have a keyfob to select maps?
