cruiser647 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Saw this in black on the A1 at Sandy/Biggleswade this morning. Damn thing is too quiet, even on a very light throttle. And matey didn't enterntain even with my window slightly down. . Bloody Audi owners......... The previous gen RS6 sounded much deeper, even on a very light throttle. (even at idle it hinted at what was on offer!!) I'd have to change the exhaust if I owned it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hashluck Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 New RS6 is a V8 not a V10 and it shuts half of those down at low revs so that might account for some of your disappointment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant I saw the C6 RS6 with the V10, not the newer C7 V8. And I really love the deep C5 RS6 V8 twin turbo sound. Makes a proper sound that a fast car should.

hashluck Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Ah OK. I did drive the V10 at launch and was underwhelmed on many levels/ C7 V8 promises much. RS prices really creeping up ever higher though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 RS prices really creeping up ever higher though Yeah, before you tick the options boxes - $225,000.00 Aust. for the new weapon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
