Collecting MY 2018 Audi RS6 Performance in Ingolstadt | Daniel Cronin

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

Really loving your reactions and feedback to this car and its specs! Cant believe it already has more than +1.500 views!

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

Well that escalated quickly...51k views! Thank you so much!

[@alessandropantaloni239]

Daniel did you take a look at the new one, I m really interested in your opinion.

[@noahk6255]

AWESOME spec!!!! I'm so jealous lol... Looking forward to the moment when I'm collecting my first own Audi from Ingolstadt. I've been there with my family collecting cars already (although not as cool ones as the RS6) but man it must be such a cool feeling to drive your own car outside of the hall.

Für mich als riesiger Audifan einfach eins der schönsten Autos (Audis) ! Glückwunsch:)

Danke Yannick! Für mich auch ein absolutes Traumauto - ein unfassbares Auto, in dem man die DNA der IMSA GTOs und Pikes Peak Monster spürt, sieht und hört. Zumindest ist es für mich so! :)

Thank you so much - I will. Incredible car and thank you so much for your support! Can't put in words how excited I am about this!

[@just_motoring_australia]

love it, that's my dream car! I'll get the light grey though with the black diffusers :) you're a happy man!

@@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor Thanks heaps for your reply, keep us all posted with your car, for now I drive a BMW 120i e87 (the handling is just..oh you have to try it) and the Audi S5 V8!! (such a nicely refined beast i'll say) Planning to get it wrapped as well, blue and black!

@@just_motoring_australia Thank you! Will try and produce some new content over the weekend if time permits - the car is now well run in and I can rev it - finally! Nice car line-up you have there! The S5 is quite a beauty and I bet the e87 is a fun car as well!

[@chrisp9759]

Is there a specific reason, other than the PS that you chose the RS6 over an S6? Looking at an S6 Avant myself.

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

Great question...both cars are amazing cars but I've always had a thing for the RS6 and some of its predecessors - the RS6 C7 is just such an incredible car. I think the S6 is brilliant, but the RS6 is just so much more to my liking. I think the S6 is very understated and a great fast car, the RS6 is just way more of an animal and just seeing it parked outside makes me smile - and dont get me started once the engine fires up! :)

[@naturecollision]

how much with extras in this setup? and how much with maxed out extras? how much insurance and tax /annum does austria charge for this sweet toy?

[@philippspringer3855]

Absolutey gorgoues spec! My Dream car. Only thing which is missing is the bang & olufsen sound system ;)

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

Thanks! My first RS6 (take a look at the video with the white RS6) had B&O and its a great system, but I decided that the Bose system is more than sufficient and it is - I have difficulty telling the difference and its a huge price difference as well. But as always at the end of the day its always down to personal preference I guess :)

[@TheG60528XiJinPing]

Daniel Cronin I prefer the sound system under the hood anyway 😉

I'm curious how much would an RS6 cost where you live? we have 100% customs on cars, my RS3 cost me $115K!

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

We have quite high taxes as well but not as high as you describe it to be - you can take a look around here to get an idea: www.dasweltauto.at/detail/968048004?brand=audi&fuhrpark=true&modelgroup=audi-rs3

[@alessandropantaloni239]

a bit of advice if i may. Full titanium akrapovic line and then its perfect. ps i got exactly the same, full black just amazing. well done bro best car in the world.

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

Thanks Alessandro! Do you have a video of your car - would love to hear it! Certainly is the best car!

[@wilduntamedphotography1260]

Cool congrats, great choice, picked up my perfromance in june this year. Also in mythos black, but without CC-Brakes but the full carbon exterior package where your's gloss black. I am so happy, it's a fantastic car and your's looks awesome too. Have fun, take care and stay safe ;-) best wishes from Switzerland

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

Congrats on an amazing car as well! I bet it looks stunning with the full carbon package! Just an incredible car!

[@wilduntamedphotography1260]

Thanks man, yes it absolutely is :-) Just incredible, you're soooo right! The carbon package is awesome, even on a black car where I have not been sure about the visibility on it.....but it's super cool. Only thing I miss a bit is your CC-Brakes, I should have ordered these as well. Not that the steel brakes are bad or so, but some more "reserves" are always good.

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

Yeah, the CC-Brakes are really an amazing reserve - especially if you use the car in Germany...mine is good to go 305km/h, so it kind of makes sense...in a way... ;)

[@danielfl.9347]

What is the drive in period on this engine?

[@danielfl.9347]

Oh, you said it in the video. My bad. Congratulations on the car. Stunning!

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

According to Audi 1.500km. The first 500km I was advised not to rev higher than 3.000, then 4.000 from 500 to 1.000 and 4.500 for the last bit. And I was advised to modulate the revs. By now the car is run in and I hope to make a new video within the next few days!

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

@@danielfl.9347 No worries :) Cheers Daniel!

[@AlboNickPlaysMC]

Ceramic brakes don’t make you stop any faster, they just handle constant stopping better

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

And you are of course correct - its just a good thing to have on german Autobahns, where you often accelerate and decelerate.

[@TheNick9910]

anyone else spy that amazing exclusive blue _5 sportback as he was leaving the building?

That seems to be there permanently - it was also there when I collected the White RS6 a couple of months ago...

@@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor prolly ,in my personal opinion i would have bought a second hand one at half the price then gotten the new c8 rs6, but i appreciate that you took time to answer , still are you thinking about doing a buyback when the new one comes out? dream car upgrade? :)

[@Omgiamsotriggered]

Fyi ceramic breaks dont break any better than the normal ones, its a general misconception... What Ceramic brakes actually do is they overheat less, therefore they allow repeatead breaking over and over again, such repeated breaking in 95% casses occur on tracks where you break in every corner, so the only real purpose of these is if you're gonna track this car. For real life scenarios where you will cruise with this car on autobahn you will never even get to use the 10% of the ceramic brakes, and they cost ALOT (I heard some manufacturers can charge up to 10k$ for them). So people if you're not gonna track your car save yourselves some money because you dont need them and its an overkill, except if you want brag rights to say that you got ceramic brakes, in that case its up to you.

[@DanielCroninThePitchProfessor]

Valid point - but I do like the idea of having breaks to my disposal that don't fade as much - specially on the german Autobahn, were when having a little fun you do tend to accelerate and decelerate quite a bit...and then take the weight of the RS6 into consideration and you will see it makes sense - mind you, this car is the unrestricted version that goes 305 ;)
