RS6 performance must haves

Post by Twitchernator » Fri Jan 08, 2021 10:07 pm

Looking at purchasing a 2018/18 RS6 performance. It’s got:

Cost options:
Parking pack
Red brake callipers
Audi smartphone interface
Elec pano sunroof and elec blind
4th year warranty

Non cost options:
Nardo grey
Valcona leather - black honeycomb with rock grey stitching
Gloss black styling pack
21” 5 v spoke star design gloss black anthracite alloys

Any key options or packs missing? Seems on the light side option wise, or do they come pretty much fully optioned up?

Does anyone have a link to the RS6 price list from this era?

Thanks in advance

Mine has dynamic pack and HuD as well. Not sure what dynamic has, but that car looks like a good spec. Panoramic roof is main option to have

Would avoid OEM 21”’s. Loads of posts about them being ‘bendy’

Jas 👍
718 Cayman S - Manual box, PASM, Sport Chrono… it’s a joy.
RS6 c7 - a beast but now gone.
RS4 b5 - wish l’d kept it…

Thanks both for responding. However, not going to buy it now, despite speaking to the dealer at 6.30pm (car only arrived with him this afternoon) and him subsequently sending pics and docs to me at 8.30pm with an agreement that he would give it quick wash in the morning and FaceTime me to do a walk around vid (and if happy I would pay deposit), he messaged at 9.30pm to say it was now sold! Bizarre but it was well priced and good on him if he sold it with a few hours of taking into stock.

I think the 21” performance wheels don’t have that issue.

Thanks for comments above. Yes, would be interested to know if any others coming to market.

The dealer has called me this morning and there might still be a deal (he is not 100% sure about the other buyer despite taking holding deposit). Seemed a good price hence it went quick (50k miles and £52k price, does need a service soon the as was last done end of Feb 20 and done just over 11k miles since - dealer says service not required for another 7k per onboard system, is that right (or is the schedule every 12 months?). It needs mot soon as will turn 3 yrs old.

Anyone got a link to the original 2018 model year price list?

Wattsm666 my bad :bash: . You are correct. PE 21" don't seem to have any problems, it was the optional 21" on the standard RS6, which I think are cast. These seem to be bendy...
