rs6 spotting

I just went to go pick up my car, and i took it for a crusie after to try out my pedals i put in yesterday, and my speakers. I was driving on 41 and saw an audi, which at first i thought was the a6 4.2 but when i got closer and saw those exhaust i knew it was the rs6. The speed limit was 55 mph and he wasnt even going 50. He was driving slower than everyone else on the road. I wanted to tell him nice car, but he would never look over. The car looks amazing thou. The front grille is really aggresive. My first time to see it driving in real life.

I like them. I like the feel of the pedals without the rubber cushioning, and you get better grip. I had problems with my foot slipping on the stock ones when it rained out. These grip nice. If you are thinking about getting em id say go for. They looki real nice too.

The RS6's seem to be popping up everywhere now.

Such a hot car.

I swear, I was driving next to one going uptown, from the westside highway with wide open traffic, and the guy was a white male, around my dads age, and he wouldn't open it up for shit, I stayed in 3rd going 60+mph and let the engine sound but he wasn't phazed at all. He wouldn't even look over to me. Why buy such a beast and not let it stretch it's legs.

Some people buy their cars for bragging rights or just because they like them. You think every 60 year old Ferrari owner lets them rip every time they go out?

heh, get used to it. I don't think the RS6 crowd are really the type to actually use it. A friend of mine has one and drives it like he's driving miss daisy. A shame not to chip a car like that.
