How fast are the new S6 on streets?

exidisjon · 05-09-2009, 03:19 AM

I met someone today with the new S6 and the car was screaming...He had a lambo decal right under the v10 sign on the side of the car. The car was screaming crazy...I was right next to it and was going to give a thumbs up but the guy smirked at me..I had no intention to race..Than he downshifts and does a few jerk to show that his car has power..So a that point i didnt really want to check out his car no more so i floored it. The S6 couldnt catch up? I floored it before him but he floored it right after i did thinking i wanted to race him. I was gone and got out at next exit, he follows and highbeams me and gives me a thumbs up and pops a u turn. LOL
Im running only JB3 and DCI. I really didnt think i had a chance but was suprised how i left him behind.
Now my questions are if it was a honk clean race would i have a chance winning? The car sounds like a beast does it really have the gallardo engine ?
How are S6 compared to the 2001 RS6.? Are S6 fast as the M5's and E55's?
Dam i was drooling at his car, the engine tone was nothing ordinary. Sounds like a exotic..

Are you serious?

I'm only going to provide the link because I'm actually curious how fast the S6 is.

You can do the math, if you know your own cars stats.

You've got 1 thousand posts, you should know better.

may be it's because quattro = lots of drive train loss + heavy body weight...

It is a Lambo V10 sorta but severely detuned. Old RS6 would still win and M5 too

MrRoboto · 05-09-2009, 11:36 AM

S6 0-60 ~5.1 sec. Not surprised you were able to beat him with a few mods. RS6 is a different story.

exidisjon · 05-09-2009, 02:07 PM

Wow they are pretty slow compared to the sound and v10... Sounded like a beast..

My old man has an s6...it's quick, but it's a big car. Certainly nothing outrageous.

You're kidding of course. If not, then why are you wasting time with people like that?

Either I'm getting too old, or this place sounds more and more like a kiddie playground everyday. Probably both.

I'm probably not as old as you but it's definitely the latter.

5.1 to sixty
it will get killed my a 135i,335i,WRX,
The car actually sucks Monkey balls. I have driven it and it does not handle great its overpriced and the rims are disgusting IMO.

dude don't you have like 22 points on your license and were complaining and now your posting this lol

Quick1 TO BE · 05-16-2009, 01:30 AM

when my 135 was in service, they gave me a loaner an 08 535 fully loaded and i raced an RS4 and he couldnt pull away and at somepoint i had to ease off a bit so i wouldnt hit him.. i was shocked that i was able to hang with him like that
