Did you notice it on the gauge cluster it said average mpg was 13.4, that'll be tough to swallow coming from your TL, I know I was getting 24mpg or so with mine.

5.2L V10? I didn't know they made those engines so big...
Do you actually feel the power, or does the weight of the car negate that power? |

I guess it depends on what you looking for. Are you looking for a 4 door sports sedan or a sporty powerful highway cruiser.
Using the IS-F for comparison only cause I know the information and don't have to look it up Audi S6 --- Weight = 4486lbs; HP= 435; TQ= 398; 0-60 = 5.1sec BMW M5 --- Weight = 4012lbs; HP= 500; TQ= 383; 0-60 = 4.8sec Lexus IS-F --- Weight = 3780lbs; HP= 416; TQ=371; 0-60 = 4.5sec Three completely different cars for sure so it comes down to what are you truly looking for at this point if you have even figured that out yet. |
Ugh, grey leather. Otherwise I love it. They have a lot of presence on the road when they're washed and waxed to the 9s.

You will love your new car. It's all good. :O
V10! |

I don't know something about a car that weights basically 4500lbs just kills me. Especially when it has the worst HP/weight ratio of anything you have considered.

In my opinion the exterior of the S6 is just plain bland. The M3, M5, M6, and IS-F all look better in my opinion.

Any updates on your car shopping ttribe?

That being said, I'm not giving up completely, just moving a little slower. Trying to better nail down all the features I want and keeping my eyes out for the best possible deal. So, if you guys run across something, feel free to let me know. I'll keep looking some. |

Yet I agree with him. Dont be mad that we called your Audi family bland. :D :tomato: |
It's alright man. You will find a better one with more research time. :thumbsup:
|
This is my opinion on the looks part
Audi S6 - Pretty bland BMW M5 - Aggressive Lexus IS-F - Meh.. Bland |
i say M5 FTMFW !!!
|
Don't rush into anything - there's plenty of cars out there for you.
Glad you liked the S6 though! Audis are truly fantastic. |
Any of you guys who've been following my mid-life crisis live in, or near, Montclair, CA?
|
It's about 30 miles away from where I live. What's up?

but, I can only partially tell the condition from its pictures. Do you know anything about these guys? Any chance you might be in the area to do a little reconnaissance (I don't want you to make a special trip)? |
Awesome car with a good pricing..
Hmm.. I don't really go out to that area, but I can maybe possibly make a special trip for you.. It's only 40 minutes away from me. :O If you would purchase it, are you going to fly out and pick it up yourself? Just curious. |

I recommend Audis a lot but I mention just about every time I'm biased. When people don't do that, it grinds my gears. |

PM me, if you want me to help you out in any sort of way. I'm down to help out a fellow AZiner. :) And I personally think E AMG is no match for M5. M5 FTMFW. |
