If you're considering an Audi RS6, then you already know what you're looking at. This is an extremely clean example and I encourage anyone to come see it for themselves. I will try to be as descriptive as possible, but please feel free to reach out to me for any specific questions/conversations. 


First, here is what Car and Driver said about the RS6 when it was released in only 900 units to North America: 

To use the new 450-hp Audi RS 6 as your grocery-getting daily driver is to use a broadsword as a butter knife. Looking very much like your average Audi A6, the RS 6 is glorious overkill.

Audi claims this 4050-pound all-wheel-drive sedan--third in a line of RS hot-rod Audis and the first to be sold in the U.S.--sprints to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds. That's faster than the Mercedes E55 AMG by almost a second and fractionally faster than the manual-transmission BMW M5. The Audi easily reached an indicated 174 mph on the unlimited portion of the A92 autobahn near Munich. And so easily and with such supernatural stability does it maintain that speed that we found ourselves noodling with the navigation system while our co-driver bumped against the speed limiter. The limiter is set at 155 mph for all markets, so our test car had either a lazy limiter or an optimistic speedometer.

Either way, 155 mph or 174 mph, it doesn't really matter. Germany is the only place we know where one can fully exploit this car's greatest trick--providing great speed along with great composure.

What we have here is a grand German game of wonderfully irrational one-upmanship. Mercedes offers 349 horsepower in the E55 AMG? BMW has 394 horses in the M5? Then Audi will produce 450.

In the engine room of the RS is a hot version of the 4.2-liter, five-valve DOHC V-8 that powers the A8 and the upper-level A6. It has been worked over by Quattro GmbH. "Quattro" is usually a reference to Audi's all-wheel-drive system, but here it applies to a performance arm of the company that is to compete with the M group at BMW and Mercedes' AMG.

I purchased this car in April of 2012 with approximately 58,000 miles from someone who took meticulous care of the car which was used as a second car. I'm now selling because my commute has tripled to an average of 50 miles per day and I need a more fuel efficient vehicle. The following is a list of tasteful modifications and maintenance that have been done to the car. It really is perfect for someone who wants a perfectly sorted RS6. 

WARRANTY: Fidelity Warranty Services - Platinum Warranty. This is the best company in the business and owned by JM Enterprises (Largest Lexus Dealer/Distributer on the eastern seaboard). This covers just about anything is an extremely valuable for a car like this. There is a $100 deductible and all repairs are done OEM. The warranty was purchased on 6/3/11 for 3 years or 36,000 miles. The expiration is 6/3/14 or 87,998 miles. 

Upgrades (OVER $15,000 in upgrades):
Stasis Ohlins - These are the best coilovers you can buy and were installed about a year ago...incredible handling and ride quality. Fully adjustable for height/compression/rebound. I will say that there is a slight rub in the front because the car is lowered and the camber is set to reduce tire wear. I've also just installed control arms to better reduce 
REVO Stage 2 - Precats gutted and coded out
MTM Torque Converter - This is HUGE if you have done research on this car. The transmission is the weak point in the vehicle and the torque converter significantly improves the long-term health of the transmission. I want to point out that this car has ALWAYS been respectfully driven and there are absolutely NO issues with the transmission. I'm happy to take the car for an PPI or put you in touch with the mechanic locally that has worked on the vehicle for me. 
Milteck Catbach Exhaust System with Black Tips - This car sounds amazing with an incredible exhaust note. It is not at all loud with absolutely no drone. 
Hotchkiss Front & Rear Sway Bars
Stratmosphere Diverter Valves
Apikol - Rear differential mount and differential carrier bushings
Laser Interceptor - Double Front and Rear
Hard Wired for Valentine 1 & Small Display - DOES NOT COME WITH THE V1

Sound System ($5,000 System):
The car's sound system has been totally upgraded - over $5,000 in cost.  The Pioneer Avic-Z140BH head unit is wired for GPS/Navigation and Bluetooth for handsfree cellphone capability which works better than most OEM systems (you can see the picture of the mic next to the Valentine One). Car is wired for iPod/iPhone but you can also wirelessly play music from your iPhone music library or Pandora! 

Further, I have included a backup camera which the pictures show as well. The sound system includes 2 amps for amazing sound to drive the Focal front speakers and JL rear speakers and 2 10" JL subs in the trunk. The work was done at Audio Creations in Boca Raton...they are known for high-end custom work and fabrications on $100,000+ cars. The sub does NOT vibrate the car at all as it is a ported box through the arm rest...extremely tight sound and amazing clarity. At my price the system is included....Otherwise it is negotiable depending on price, etc. 

Maintenance ($5,000 in recent work): 
New Tires: Continental DSW with only 3,000 miles on them.
Refinished Rims: Wheels were refinished about 10,000 miles ago and are in near mint condition. Only 1 minor chip. 
65K Maintenance: Included transmission fluid change, spark plugs, filters, etc.
Timing Belt Change: This is a $2,000 job and included timing belt, tensioner, roller, idler roller, camshaft seals, water pump, coolant, etc. 
New Alternator: The work was done under Fidelity Warranty Services.
Brand new brake pads

Overall Condition: 
The Avus Silver paint is nearly flawless for a car this age. It has always been garaged and waxed. Paint is "deep" and one of the best Audi silvers to option. There is a small scratch on the rear-left bumper with a picture attached. The leather is in great shape and extremely supple/soft. The pictures make the leather look tremendously worse than they really are. I was "worried" as I purchased this car sight-unseen, but was very happy with the condition of the leather in person. The pictures make the leather looked "cracked" but they are simply wrinkles because the leather is so supple. Overall the interior condition is great for a car this age...most Audis (VW) have issues with the "soft keys" and matte paint around the door grips, etc., and there is definitely some signs of wear on these. I can send close up pictures of anything that is requested. Again - the pictures of the interior actually make the car look worse than it is in person.

Porsche wins the 2015 24 Hours of Le Mans

Sun, Jun 14 2015

The question going into this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans was whether or not the Porsche 919 Hybrid would be able to combine its qualifying pace with race reliability. After battling neck-and-neck with Audi's R18 for most of the race, the answer is a resounding yes. Not only did Porsche drivers climb the first two spots on the podium, they did so without any major mishaps on track. This win is the first overall trophy for Porsche since 1998. Audi previously won the last five races, and 13 of the last 15. Corvette also returned to the winner's circle, with the No. 64 C7.R taking winning the GTE Pro division. The victory is the first class win for Corvette since 2011. KCMG won the LMP2 class in ninth overall. With 45 minutes to go the No. 98 Aston Martin crashed out of first place in GTE Amateur, giving the class win to SMP Racing's Ferrari and second place to the Patrick Dempsey Racing Porsche 911 RSR. For the full list of official results, click here. The GTE Pro class proved to be just as exciting as the P1 class, with a four-way battle for first after four hours into the race. For most of the race, the battle at the top went back and forth between the two German manufacturers. An tire puncture in the No. 7 Audi gave up the lead to Porsche, and moments later a crash forced the No. 8 into the garage. But a three-minute replacement of the front and rear bodywork kept the Audi in contention. As the race wore into the night, Porsche maintained a slightly faster pace than Audi. Nick Tandy took the lead on Lap 253 early Sunday morning, and car No. 19 never gave up the top position. The win is the first for all three drivers of the No. 19 – Nico Hulkenberg, Earl Bamber, and Nick Tandy. A lap behind in second was the No. 17 Porsche. The Audis fought reliability problems late in the race but still finished third with the No. 7 R18. The GTE Pro class proved to be just as exciting as the P1 class, with a four-way battle for first after four hours into the race. As the Aston Martin cars dropped away, the lone Corvette Racing entry took over, followed by a charging AF Corse team Ferrari 458 Italia. The Corvette and Ferrari continued to trade places in the final hours until gearbox trouble forced the No. 51 Ferrari out of contention. It was eventually passed by the other AF Corse car, No. 71. Nissan experienced all the pain of a first-year effort with its front-wheel-drive GT-R LM Nismo.

Spyker C8 Aileron to come back with supercharged power?

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

The new B6 Venator wasn't the only vehicle on display at the Spyker booth at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. The company still has its C8 Aileron on offer, and Road & Track has word of a potential powerplant upgrade for the long-running machine.
Since its introduction in the year 2000, the C8 has used a 4.2-liter V8 engine sourced from Audi, which, in base form, offers up 400 horsepower. Though it's a great powerpant, that's simply not enough power in this day and age - after all, if a car is going to be called super, it needs to offer more ponies than something as mundane as the Ford Mustang GT.
According to R&T, John Walton, Chief Commercial Officer at Spyker, indicated that a new engine supplier may be in the works. "[The Audi-sourced V8] really hasn't got enough bang for the buck. To be honest, every supercar needs to have something that begins with a '5' today. That's why we're supercharging the car in the future, which will take it to over 500-hp," said Walton.

2019 BMW X7 vs luxury SUV rivals: Comparing specs and photos

Wed, Oct 17 2018

Today we get our first-ever look at the first-ever 2019 BMW X7 crossover. We've actually already had our first-ever drive in an X7 Prototype. And so, we thought it appropriate to follow that up today with the first-ever X7 comparison of specs between BMW's first-ever three-row crossover with legitimate room for seven and its many high-dollar competitors. On paper, the 2019 X7 definitely seems to most closely align with the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class. Their similar dimensions, interior space, engine choices and price would certainly imply where BMW placed the target when developing X7. We used those same elements to determine three-row vehicles likely to be cross-shopped or that should be cross-shopped. These include the Audi Q7, Land Rover Discovery, Volvo XC90 and Lincoln Navigator. Yes, the latter is a truck-based SUV as opposed to a crossover, but tell that to all the people lining out the door at the local Lincoln emporium. They do not care, and neither shall we. We also included the 2019 BMW X5, which was completely redesigned for this year and therefore not the first-ever. That makes it less appealing? Either way, lining the new X5 up with the SUV that leapfrogs it atop BMW's SUV hierarchy should provide a good idea of just how much more you get by going up a model number. Engines and model lineup Again, the X7 aligns closest with the GLS, offering a base six-cylinder in its xDrive40i model and an upgrade turbo V8 in the xDrive50i. The Mercedes engines have greater output, but the GLS still accelerates slower than the BMW. As the 2019 X5 offers the exact same engines, we would also expect the X7's fuel economy to be superior to the GLS once its estimates are announced. It should be noted, though, that the GLS offers a high-powered AMG model whereas we anticipate the X7 to offer a plug-in hybrid model comparable to the X5 upcoming xDrive45e model. The other luxury SUVs diverge in their engine choices and model lineup. The Audi Q7 offers a base turbocharged four-cylinder, as does the Volvo XC90 in its T5 model, which we left out of the above chart entirely for space reasons. That the Q7 3.0 TFSI supercharged V6 gets the same fuel economy estimates as the four-cylinder is proof positive that engine is purely around for its lower base price.
