I have owned (and LOVED) my 08' S6 for the last 7 years. Finally getting to see one of my favorite youtubers do a review of my ride has made my week. Thanks Doug! The car he is reviewing is missing a few plastic covers & stickers and is a low-spec version. The highest spec has full carbon fibre trim, rear heated seats, S6 branded (front) carpets and a couple other options. Regarding the transmission, when you switch to "S" mode, the transmission sharpens up, and that's when you get to those faster figures. Mine is stock, and I was able to do 0-62 in just over 4.6 seconds. The subtle styling makes this car blend in really well, but its always fun to be at the lights and see guys suddenly notice the "V10" badge and start freaking out. Maintenance is NOT easy; averages roughly $1100/year, so keep that in mind when pricing. I got mine with low mileage 7 years ago, and I've taken proper care of it since, so I know everything is tip-top. I would be reluctant to buy a high mileage one of these without knowing completely how well the previous owner had taken care of it. The walnut blast alone is about $900, and I've had to get it done twice now with relatively low mileage (only use 94 octane), so keep that in mind.

My friend bought a 07 S8 V10 just yesterday and today here I find a video of a similar car. I got to drive it around for an hour or two in various road conditions and I have to agree with the transmission draining power, and how quiet the car is, not revealing its V10 notes easily. However I found the handling amazing. I was driving uphill so understeer wasn't a problem but along with its aggressive sport mode for the air suspension, the large all wheel drive sedan felt like it has been thrown into the hairpin sideways, feeling like as if the car was hopping on its outer wheels with minimal roll during turn and launches violently as you floor the gas to exit the corner. It just felt so fun and satisfying. My friend's car have some malfunctions in the engine, which I am afraid he must require the engine to be dismounted in order to just access the engine. Everything in the engine bay looked so cramped, not as much as the S6 though.

Doug, Great review of the S6. I've been a happy owner of a 2008 S6 since 2009. I think you overlooked what has been in my ownership experience an important, very useful "quirk," and that is the fold-down rear seats, which make the trunk space large enough for adults to lay down in, or haul a road bicycle, for example. I haven't seen a comparable newer performance sedan with fold-down rear seats, a feature that I've utilized quite often. Secondly, as you discussed the slower standing start speed, I think it would have been worth mentioning that the all-wheel drive adds roughly 90 lbs. per wheel. So, you're constantly carrying the added weight of approximately two extra Doug DeMuros, give or take, something the M5 or E63 does not. IMO, it is very difficult to find a comparable replacement. I can't justify buying a newer sedan and burning depreciation when my S6 is still such a fine performing car, solid interior as you describe, great leather and seats.

Owning a 08 audi a6 for over 7 years I always loved the audi c6 platform and after this video literally bought a 08 s6 with 69,5000 miles 0 accidents one original owner for $15,800. Turned out it was also a company car like my A6 was when I got it. Came with a full miltech performance exhaust. 44+ service records. Radiator replaced, water pump, drive belt, cam shaft adjuster gaskets, valve cover gasket, new Michelin sport tires, new brakes and rotors, intake gasket and new lower and upper controls arms . Ran a full scan with VCDS AND literally 0 faults from engine to interior modules to comfort features with zero issues. Was extremely luckily to find one in this kind of condition also I bought it in Dallas so no rust either and was garage kept and now it is still garage kept. The good and guess bad thing is I won't be driving as much starting spring 22 will be living and traveling overseas for a while so sad I won't be able to drive it as much but great because less wear and tear and keeps the miliage low
