    To a 2015 Audi A6 3.0T Supercharged Premium Plus with Bose, 20 inch sport package, and Full LED headlights in Moonlight Blue with Nougat Brown Interior

    0-60 in 5.3. Not a bad grocery getter.

    Never said speed demon. 5 seater grocery getter is what I said and a tune will easily bring that number way down.

    Speed demon is my car. You won't keep up.;)

    Audi is very conservative I would not pick a fight if I were you. By the way the Audi is an 8 spd.

    That's a fact. Their real world numbers are always better. Over deliver and under promise.

    Always been a fan, they are such sick cars.
    I don't think some of these guys understand what a vehicle you have there.
    I'm very jealous. I wish and pray I could have an RS5 but i think Id save some cash money and SPS Revo program an S5 :cool:

    My friend has an A8 and Its so sick, love the size as an everyday driver.
    I'd drive any model
    I put a down payment on a used S4 when I was 21 and ended up buying a new Tacoma, that car would have been fun :(

    What is with these Ram and Tundra guys thinking their trucks are fast? They aren't nor are they meant to be. Most family sedans can knock them down in top trim.

    You are NA, you would be lucky to get 30 rwhp for $1 grand which wouldn't make a huge difference in a 2.5 ton brick. He is forced induction, $500 in a pulley he gets 30 rwhp or more with a smaller set up, another $300 in tunning for 93 octane and he doubles that in a car that is half the weight. Even stock with your 1k in mods I bet he pulls you through the quarter.

    Don't mod your truck, put some exhaust on and go to Home depot or tow a boat or something, it isn't made to go fast.

    Who quotes 0-60 times honestly? What is your 1/4 time that is a better measure? NM, looked it up 14.1 @ 99 where the Audi is 14.0 @ 101. That is the regular cab 2wd version. What is your RT? Ext Cab? 4wd?

    Nice car OP, really dig Audi's.

    When I was still doing communications for the pro rally and the Climb to the Clouds the Audi Quatros were unbeatable running a 2.3L 5 cylinder even the back yard guys were getting 400 HP and the big boys 550 HP Audi's performance hides quietly behind a pretty face.

    That's why I love them. They have a sophisticated subtle look compared to other high performance cars and you would never know the capabilities of one until you drive it.
