Not currently. I am aspiring. I got mine w/ 43k on her and it just stated falling apart. 6k and 5 years later all I've upgraded in the K&N kone w/ custom heatsheild and BA 4x6 euro's in the back. It's the slc and came with a great 2.5" stainless exhaust which sounds and breathes great (not too obnoxious). I also have BA pro series components for the front to go in when I get the dough for a nice amp. I just have too many hobbies.

RS6? right? S6 is audi no?

How do you like it? Thats the brandy new one that competes with the likes of the STI and the like correct? Somewhere round 250hp stock? Read its much more of a daily driver than say the STI...I have a 2004 WRX..the STI was SUPER stiff...I couldnt drive that everyday..

You are thinking the R32. That is the special edition Golf with AWD and theVW/Audi 3.2 L V6.

I have the S6. It is an Audi. But they are the same company. One of my favorites was an 85 VW Quantum Syncho. It was basically an Audi 4000 with a wagon body sold as a VW. AWD wagons are my preferred mode of transport. Great handling, Rock solid with snows in the winter and plenty of room for toys.

Now the RS6 is something different altogether. Think M5 killer with AWD. 450 hp twin turbo V8, AWD.......No wagon in the States however....

Yeah I thought thats what you meant...thats a MONSTER....you got cash I see....LOL......I saw the sticker on that and I almost fell over...could have a 911 almost for that...I did love my audi (had an a4 1.8T 2001 just got rid of it)....but I will tell ya...Subaru might have the AWD down slightly better....just an opinion though..

Don't assume too much on the cash side of things. The S6 was a long term goal and IMO the ideal vehicle. I had been a VW 5 door (wagon) fan all my driving life. 78 VW golf, 82 Quantum Wagon, 85 Quantum Synchro Wagon, 92 Passat Wagon, 99 A6 Wagon, 02 S6......

There have been a lot of winter miles in that list of vehicles!

S6!!!!!!! Nice!

Me want S4 wagon....someday.

Well it was a truly good long term goal...like I said earlier...its a monster.....how fast you taken it so far.....I wont tell. HA HA HA

Not nearly as fast as it can go. The fun part is the 30-80 mph sprints. And sending kids in Mustangs home with thier tails betweeen their legs at stop lights.

But seriously tooling up over Roxbury/Warren gap road on a Friday night with the snow coming down 2" an hour, with 4 Hakkas digging, is the reason I bought it. That is the best feeling I have behind the wheel.

But not these kids: http://home.att.net/~capriclubchicag.../x2/specs.html

In the 70's some Brits tuned their V-6's to 150mph and beyond and Zakespeed had one 3.0L way over 300 horsepower. Then the 2.8L motors were run in Formula 500 against V-8's and kicked butt....pity that the poor little buggers leaked oil when they were cold...keep 'em hot and they tighten up and scoot.

Mine was sort of average: 15's in the qtr but sweeter in the twisty.

The Capri's were fun to drive, but it was work, the harder driven, the faster. Impeccable manners at 10/10ths but a real b*tch under 7/10ths. Some of these modern rides, such as y'alls are using are far smoother....that Corrado fer instance....I felt like a good two weeks and there would be another 4-5 tenths in that little scoot!
