Ordered My first Rs!!

Post by parmd » Sat Jun 22, 2013 9:31 am

Good Morning All,

my names Parm and after 7 odd months in my 911 turbo my wife's nagging finally convinced me its was too small of long journeys with my 6 & 8 year old boys. Only choice was a fast family car and going by the under estimated S8 and S6 performance figures I went of a Daytona grey RS6 C7. Sure it's going to be a hoot and the kids will be further from ear shot!!
Does any one have an idea of what the real world 0-60 etc could be if the S6 & S8 are so much quicker than their book values??

Cheers :bigwave:

You didn't fancy keeping the 911 and getting a run around as well?

Hoping to have a drive of one when they land, will probably take the plunge next year, though don't think I'll punt on a new one.

Lol!!! No the 911 had to go as I couldn't get the kids in the back (comfortably) so I did 2800 miles from new since Jan just driving to the gym and back !! Plus I love the look of the new RS6, it's very aggressive
