I remember back in the days when the C6 RS6 was launched, I thought that there was a typo in the horsepower. They must mean 480hp, I thought. But nah... 580! Those were the days. Imagine that meeting among Audi engineers back then. "Lets put a Lambo V10 in our estate.. And then add two turbos on it.". Insane. Those days are long gone.

Perhaps because of that enormous Lamborghini engine in combination with the Quattro system , its just pure madness .

Yes, it’s true… I owned a RS6 … compared to the E55 or M5 V10 the RS6 seemed a little bit boring, because Quattro and Automatic my grandma could be fast with it. And the high weight of that fat engine in the front of the car made that you only had fun on the Autobahn not curved streets… my RS6 had 598PS on the dyno in stock, but if I changed the map for 800€, it was another car!!! Boost was taken higher from 0,6 to 1,1 bar, and it was real fast… I didn’t had it on the dyno with that new map, but it went very fast over the 300 km/h, an the speedo was at the end over 340 and GPS said 329… and there was more possible… a killer …but the cars from today like M5 or Porsche turbo s are much faster…
