SIGHTING: Audi RS6
First one I've seen on the road, going down 405 in Bellevue. The frown comes in when I saw the owners. A couple in their 60s, maybe 70s, driving about 58, 59, in the typical old person fashion: slow, scared, and stupid. What a waste of a sweet, sweet car. It's my favorite car under $100,000. Oh, I also saw a new S4 a couple weeks ago crossing 520. Another skilled ride. Man, I wish I could afford me one of them Audis.

I definately agree the RS6's are very nice. I could only dream of being able to own one. Who cares if that is only a tiptronic, just the joys of being able to own an RS model. As for the S4 the new ones have shoes to fill with from the previous S4's. Though previous models were all turbo's and now going to a N/A engine we shall see how the market goes. I have driven a 2001 S4 many times and they are quick little suckers. After being modded you better hold on. With the new one around 50k lets hope the price comes down.

Yup Audi's are sweet and "iseerings" would know, wouldnt ya Pete? (he drives a 200 Turbo, very nice car when it works properly and his brothers S4 is the ****) I also agree that the price should come down on the s4. So now we gotta find an RS6 thats really being DRIVEN.
ps. Peter, Subaru AWD > Audi quattro.

I dont get what whitelegacy98 means by "works properly" the car has over 300,000 miles on it without an engine rebuild and it is a 1991.It is still going to with no end in sight. It still produces full boost and handles well even in the mud to a certain point. MTM is developing a RS6 that has over 500hp now and soon reach over 600hp. Audi's are very reliable and for whitelegacy98 to say that subaru>audi is debateable it depends on many aspects. (i.e. price, performance, reliablity, chick magnet etc. if you kow what i mean the list can go on forever.)

LOL, ok let me take care of these one by one
First, your not producing full boost right now because something is broken, thats what I meant by when it "works properly"
Second "handles well in the mud" iseerings, If remember correctly (and I'm pretty sure I do) you got stuck. We had to call a tow truck and your just lucky you didnt get busted by the cops like that toyota tacoma (its amazing how much of what the officer saw we could block by where we stood)
Third, your right, Audi over Subaru is very debatable and its wise for you to not get in to it here (just like I wouldnt debate it in audi world) we'll just leave it with "mutual respect"
Finally, you know I respect your ride, hell I have to, its a helluva lot faster than mine
(for now). Nothin but love bro, ride on!
p.s. I'm lookin forward to the drive on friday (hells yeah for caravaning) :banana:

Hey Akiata, I did not hear of any show that is going on. Is it a car show? If you give me details that would be sweet. I was just going up there to pick up a by-pass valve.And drive down to portland with one of my best-friends. But it would be awsome to hook up with you and achtuning. Please keep me informed i will be online all the time. As to like when you will be at achtuning and what is going on with everything.
PS I drive a pearl white 1991 Audi 200 20valve

UPDATE: sorry mind blanked on this one. Were you talking about the www.importrevolution.com event that is being held at the Tacoma Dome from 4pm -11pm. If so, do you know if achtuning is showing in that? I am willing to go to that if i am able to.
