My 2 days old S6

[EdV10]

Just want to say hi to everyone. I'm new to this forum scene but i felt it is very nice to have so many people with the same interest and passion. Here is a few picture of my new car.

[Tiesto]

Nice to see a C6 S6 owner around here, your ride looks awesome.

[cerfus]

very nice, how do you like it so far?

[Overboostin]

great car! Can't even begin to imagine the gas mileage you must get, haha.

[skiroad'r]

mmmm Lambo v10. Enjoy it brother. Very very nice.

[Gigi]

Awesome ride mister!

Let me know if you want to swap for a week :)

[trapped]

Haha, Wow! thanks Kievskiy. I can only imagine a custom exhaust on that!

[Stampy]

That shizzy it hot man. Now go get it straight piped and post a clip dammit!

[speedydragon]

oh nice. Any plans for the vehicle?

[Digga]

Sexy! I just love everything about that car....

[EdV10]

Thank you. I love this car too.

[EdV10]

I've ordered a set of R8 style wheels for it already. Should be here next week.

I’ve to say this is the best car I’ve ever driven. I’ve owned a corvette Z06, BMW M5 E60, BMW 750IL E65 all were good cars but the Audi seems to really pamper the driver a lot more. All the designs and features are programmable to accommodate the driver’s preference. Even though it is not as fast as the M5 but the overall driving impression is better. The car is very civilized but when situation calls for it, the engine will explode upon demand, what a sleeper. The feature I like the most is the solar sunroof; it keeps the interior nice and cool even on a very hot day. One thing I just can’t understand is why Audi hasn’t heavily advertised the S models like the BMW M. It seems like more people knows of the M power than the S power.

Man, to pop the bonnet and see V10 would give me the giggles everyday. Very nice pc of machinery my friend........

to fire up the V10 and give it a bit gas gives me giggles all the way.... :)

We should all thank god that they don't. Then we would see Yuppies and housewives driving S cars everywhere.

haha.... I've never thought of it that way..... but yes i would totally agree with you.

[RomanA6]

1 word: SICK!

Gigi - looking great too!

Obviously you havn't been to the burbs of St. Louis. I see S4's on a daily basis and most of the time its a woman driving it! I especially get angry following a shiny brand new B7 s4 driven by a woman going 5 under the limit!

Congrats! And welcome to the Club. I've got an S6, same color as yours, but with a 20" rim package. I couldn't have summarized my experience with my S6 any better than you have above. It is an amazing car. I do not know what part of CA you are from, but on the 18th I'll be attending Audi Anonymous, a GTG for only Audis at the Irvine Spectrum at 3PM. Check out the thread under Southwest - Southern California section under Irvine Meet. It would be nice to see other S6s there. Again, congrats! Also, check out rs6.com where many owners of S6s, RS6s, etc gather as well. There is a thread regarding the meet on the 18th under the RS6/S6 thread.

maybe Audi doesn't want any ol' jackass driving their cars.


nice ride!

Great Answer. Isn't that why Audi is considered the "Intelligent" choice in premium luxury brands? Audi owners get it.

[thenicholsterr]

how about a picture of the interior?! :]

haha... i've been seeing SL63 and CL65 doing 50mph on the freeway here in Los Angeles. Makes me wonder what kind of decision making process did they made when they purchase that car or what kind of technic did the salesperson used on them. It is so funny especially when you see them buying a E550 4matic in Los Angeles....haha! Selling Ice to Eskimo!

hey Horch, thanks for the congrat and info. I'm from Pasadena area and i'll try to make my schedule to Irvine. I'll look for you if i can make it.

[EdV10]

Let me first apologize that i'm not a professional photographer....:) Hope you will like it.

[Horch]

Great! It would be cool to meet other S6 owners. Some of us are having lunch prior to the "Audi Anonymous" GTG. Here are some details. Start time: 1PM. I hope to see you there and your new S6. Don't forget to give him a name. That's Audi owner tradition.

See Links Below:

As for those who are.... here's the address to type into your GPS/google maps/mapquest/etc for Red Robins:

83 Fortune Dr, Irvine, CA

And just to make things a bit easier, I have the below two satellite images and a bit of explanation. As Red Robins is actually within the Spectrum mall itself, you can't simply pull up and park in front. Instead, I recommend that we all park in the lot immediately in front of Barnes and Noble, marked with red arrows in the picture below.

4matic= wannabe Quattro

Why bother with a Mercedes-Benz E550 4matic (I wish I was an Audi) when you can have the original - an A6 4.2!

You are very welcome! Which person did you brought it from.....? Did you get a good deal?

[trapped]

Wow thoes seats look amazing. I don't really like the new audi gauges, but still the S6 interior is awsome! Have fun with your S6

Also I'm not saying your a female Sputnik, but often I see women driving the s4's. The S and RS cars are amazing... (b5 on the way, maybe)

No i didn't see it that way.... i agreed with that marketing direction of BMW M power versus Audi S power......! It gave me a new point of view.

[SLEEPERS6]

EDV10, As a fellow S6 owner, let me tell you the car will get better and better. It will loosen up @ a couple thousand miles and exhaust rasps up a bit. Who did you get R8 rims from??

Oh thk god....! Before i decide to buy this car i went on utube to do some research. I just loved the sound of this car. After i got the car it seems to be a bit quite and got me worry. So i start to research for muffler system, but i am afraid that it will sound too loud at all rpm range.....particularly during freeway speed. Your information put a rest on my worries. Thanks SLEEPERS6

I got the rims from ebay, A company called alloyrus. Actually I just got the rims today. I'll try to post some pics.

What's the stock rim and tire size?
