I received a call from a local dealer a couple of weeks ago. They had one of these in stock and invited me to come check it out. I presently drive a '21 Porsche Turbo S Sport Turismo, so I'm definitely a high-performance station wagon person. So we went out for a test drive. I've previously owned an RS7 so I was pretty familiar with many aspects of the car. The salesman was disappointed that I wasn't blown away by the acceleration, but it actually didn't feel quite as quick as my present car. Still, it was plenty fast. It had the optional steel spring suspension, so it was neither as comfortable nor as adjustable as my present car. With the engine where it is the car will still understeer when pushed hard, just like my old RS7, which also had the sport suspension. Still, my present car will be going off warranty in another 18 months and I'm keeping my eyes open for a replacement, so this was a very interesting prospect. Until. I started talking numbers with the sales manager, who informed me that they were asking $50K over sticker, which brought the car over $200K. They offered me a "discount" of $15K (I've bought cars there previously) but that left us at $35K over MSRP, so just a little shy of $200K. That's the price range of my present car, and in my eyes it just didn't measure up. I like the stealthiness of my present car, whereas the RS6 is much more "look at me." The 22" wheels of the RS6 seem like overkill, and could I ever find snow tires for it? So my take on this car is that it is indeed a very fast wagon. At MSRP or close, I think it's a good deal. But for almost $200K, not so much. Looks like I'll be keeping the Panamera, and perhaps looking into an extended warranty when the time comes. Or, if M-B brings back the AMG E63S wagon...
@awesomeingsauce3 ай бұрын
I got an offer at MSRP for a 2024 RS6-P AE... just find a better stealership to work with. Bought my 2023 RS6 at MSRP, brand new. I laughed at the couple stealerships in Cali I talked to first, who had $75k markups. Yeah right. Maybe for the RS6 GT, but not for a regular model. I even said no to the RS6-GT because we only get the ugly white trim here in the US. Not worth it, unless you never drive it.

Am I the only one who thinks this car is just a bit too excessive for everyday use? I mean, it’s cool, don’t get me wrong, but: - A 625hp V8 is never going to be exploited in daily use. Heck, you can barely use 300hp in most situations. The fuel economy must be horrid as well - and yes, that still matters, even in a performance car. - Those wheels and that front grille. Way too huge, I agree with Doug, they just shout ‘LOOK AT ME!!!’ - The price - $125k USD is just too much for a car that isn’t a sports car. Would you really beat this thing up in daily usage when you are terrified of the smallest scratch or blemish on the paint? If I had to get an Audi x6, I would go for a used S6. The V6 is more than powerful enough for everyday use, and it’s not rare or special enough to worry about getting damaged.

11:32 - pure VAG. Audi, VW, Porsche - you even have blanks on on-screen buttons :D so you know you'd cheaped out on your RS6 :D

Unfortunate you don’t focus much on the driving segments as much anymore from my perspective. Not 1 pull, no highway ride, just went around the block for a few minutes and called it a day.

Doug forgot the suspension settings In The touch panel, hence it’s harsh by default; The balanced mode makes it very nice

The person buying this could also buy several nice cars immediately after. It’s not supposed to make financial sense at this level.

One of the best family estate cars My wife been driving hers since 2022 Audi did fantastic job with its RS6 platform It’s nice to see Audi still keeps RS6 clean and not too flashy like some other German performance cars

Why not do a comfort suspension setting that is comfortable? And non-comedy wheels.

The wheels are 3” too big at minimum. You could make the ride so much more compliant if it wasn’t riding on rubber bands

The RS6 GT speaks to me. I've been quite bored of the Audi formula for the past almost 10 years. Audi was at its most drool worthy when phrases like "Twin-turbo V10 out of a Lamborghini" were a part of the conversation. I find the current lineup exactly as you'd expect them to be. They need their wild card design.

I will say & something I think that you and other car reviewers miss is that most of the road harshness in these cars is caused by the insanely thin sidewall. If this car had 19s (Or hell even 20s) this car does ride so much better AND is able to put the power down better. Its one of those tradeoffs that most people don't even realize they are making unless they switch to aftermarket wheels.

that white colour scheme on the RS6 GT is a clear nod to the IMSA GT quattro race cars of the 80s, and also some of the rally livery used in the earlyl 80s. Shocked you didn't know that...

I’ve been an Audi enthusiast for over 20 years and yes, I’m only 33… But it’s crazy to see where the brand in the technology is going. I’m not sure if I like the look of this car but I do like the performance.

This is my ultimate dream car. Of all the cars that have ever carred, this would be my #1 choice to own. Actually, the 2021 Avant would be, but still.

The RS6 is my current attainable dream car. Attainable in the sense of I would be able to afford a 2021 version in few years as it depreciate.

This is a cool car. But then I know that the Volvo V60 Recharge exists, and it kinda makes me want that car more. Hear me out, they are both sport wagons, and the RS6 is certainly quicker, has more HP, and might be subjectively more attractive. But the Volvo is almost half the price, still gets 0-60 in 4.1 seconds, gets 41 miles on battery, and I suspect feels much better on the road than the harsh RS6. I understand the people will want the big V8 and Audi people will Audi, but for a high end family car with an emphasis on performance, the Polestar Engineered Volvo V60 seems like such better value than this.
