1st Drive 2021 AUDI RS 6 AVANT | *Top Speed | *C8 RS6

[@ThisIsMTH]

What a great looking car this is. I wasn’t expecting to say that, but everything looks ‘right’. It’s got this segment sewn up.

[@JoeAchilles1]

Yeah this and the ALPINA B5 Touring

[@minga007]

@@JoeAchilles1 Joe, if you want more subscribers you must stop being a BMW fan boy, because 1st. you are not a Kid any longer and this is NOT an Alpina B5, is so silly to say that.

[@martinofleeds]

Alex Pino I agree to be honest.

[@paredding]

Just come across this channel; I really like this car - looks like the modern re-incarnation of my C5 RS6. All the ones in between just didn't have the presence that this does like the original did in 2003 - they have really made the arches look purposeful again. And to do 30mpg average is impressive, better than my R8 and a whole load better sounding. Also having a quick look back to the C7 RS^, this C8 makes that look really quite plain externall, like an S version of an A6. Cheers. PS Reims is pronounced like 'ran' with a nasal n and s on the end...those crazy French And PPS half yer luck Audi UK paying the Flexiplus Eurotunnel - that big $$$ :-)

[@danielfinch362]

What an absolutely beautiful looking car.

[@JoeAchilles1]

[@Amit_l92]

I’d take this over an M5. Audi have killed it with this one. What a beast! 🔥

[@卓尧杜]

Amit kill the M5 in terms of what?

[@markking9435]

Design I would say 👍

[@cyrose1935]

I'd take this over an M5 too as i prefer Estates. For outright performance im sure the M5C and E63S would take it though

[@helloworld-bu1vk]

cy rose Yeah, if you want the stock performance then they outperform the RS6 but if you compare the complete package (interior/exterior + sound + power) the RS6 is way better in my opinion.

[@Amit_l92]

@@卓尧杜 Love the M5 too but for the complete overall package the RS6 wins.

[@RNX09]

Nice one Joe, I’m keen on these RS6 videos! As a 2018 B9 RS4 owner this is the big daddy!

[@DeltaDubai03]

This car is so good it could be a BMW, lol. When I see how good the videos are on this channel and how they improved over time, the initial car presentation is an example of the improvement, the increase of subscribers is well deserved. I said that before and I'll say it again, this should be a 500 k channel ramping up to 1 million and more. Well done Joe.

[@stephenlane9127]

I'm really enjoying your KZbin work Joe! always look forward to sitting down and chilling out watching your videos. Please do more Porsche, BMW & Aston content ...

[@JoeAchilles1]

Thanks man! Not sure Porsche want to give me a car, I've given up asking Aston 😂

[@DeltaDubai03]

@@JoeAchilles1 Don't give up. With the increased number of subscribers, you might get a different result. And if they still do not want, why wouldn't you try the Smoking Tire (Matt Farah) or JayEmm on Cars way, i.e. getting cars from subscribers/car lovers willing to let it for a review.

[@stephenlane9127]

Joe Achilles hang in there. If Paul Wallace can get a brand new Vantage for 6 months of testing, you definitely can!

[@chrislaws4785]

I know EXACTLY where your at, i use to live in Mannheim Germany and travel down to Stuttgart and Karlsruhe and on down into the black forest all the time. I loved the roads around there, i rented an Audi once to go on vacation and it was always just a joy to drive around. Out on the autobahn id normally get up to around 230 Kmh which was just absolutely fun as hell.

[@GY9944]

"I wonder what the fastest anyone has ever been on a Euro Tunnel Train" - Jeremy Clarkson I couldn't help but think of this during the train part of the video lol. Solid review Joe !

[@WiZe1972]

Despite being an Audi sheep (watch my channel), I have to agree with you on the seats; upper portion should be adjustable and I’m struggling to find a good seat position on both the RS6 I filmed for my channel and my RS5 Sportback. Beautifully made video, can’t wait for the next one 👍🏼

Great first drive. Discovered the high sided vehicle trick for the tunnel too late, after it ate some wheels a few years ago! Jon Olsson has just had his new RS6 boosted to 800+ bhp!!

[@BM_PAZ]

That car is an absolute monster...

[@Skylinedb]

You did not change the lighting scheme in the menu, you blinded the oncoming stream with the headlights, so oncoming drivers blinked at you with a high beam. The menu has a choice of left-hand traffic or right-hand traffic.

[@shaheenevans]

This would sound so good with after market exhaust - great spec, very classy combo, your becoming Mr Audi now instead of Mr BMW!

Love the deep grumble, it definitely sounds nice just needs an aftermarket exhaust to open it up. Hopefully Akrapovič will come up with something.

[@jephtawallace2135]

Daniel Sadjadian What do you think bout an exhaust from Milltek??

[@DanielSadjadian]

@@jephtawallace2135 Miltek sound phenomenal, but they are crazy loud. Most (if not all) of their exhausts come with decat downpipes. May be better to get Akrapovič with sports CAT downpipes, should sound pretty good.

Daniel Sadjadian Thank you man, I really appreciate you reaching back out to me, blessings!

[@ggeorge6221]

@@jephtawallace2135 If you have to decide between those two i'd personally go for milltek because it is waaaaay cheaper than akra and the sound is better imo.

I currently have a 2014 Audi S8, APR down pipes, aftermarket thicker bigger cold air intakes, Milltek unresonated exhaust and a APR stage 2 tune!

[@marcr.6191]

I am also currently evaluating which should be my next car (M5C, RS7, AMG GT4D) and I have to confirm that the seats in the M5 are the benchmark. Though the outside looks of the new RS6 & 7 is stunning, ergonomic seats are vital for me. Therefore, I will probably go for the M5C

[@tan9640]

Park this next to an M5 or E63 and they’ll blend into the background. The looks are just on another level.

[@PhatTok]

Not the M5 because it brings the historical pedigree with it. The audi fully touch interior is awful work with, we have an a7.

[@tan9640]

Phat Tok I’m talking purely exterior design. Personally I hate how Audi have removed the MMI swivel button thingy

[@PhatTok]

@@tan9640 I know it's such a pain in the ass and it has put me off them all except the s5 or rs5. I have a soft spot for the m5 and knowing the machine it is, it's no.1 for me but for a fact when it comes estates or avant Audi are way ahead of them all, they've got the design element bang on.

[@tan9640]

Phat Tok yeah I think if I had the money I’d still go for the m5 as it is an m5 tbh

[@MM-zc9uq]

Looks absolutely stunning. No way on earth I could ever afford it. At least with the beamers you can get decent monthlies... Still entertaining to watch!

[@shaneisaacs666]

A total beast. A difficult choice between this and the M5 Comp.

[@KyzerGB]

Cant afford an Rs6 Avant. So I just bought a 69 plate S5 in same colour. Best colour I think . They had a nardo grey in the showroom and it just stands out like no other car. Why have a super car when you can have this. Just looks amazing and loads of room . Audi rules the road on looks. Even the old rs range of cars still look great .
