Nice car. I also have a '06 330 and as a former S6 owner looked into the RS6 but ended up finding a good deal on a 335 (which I can't yet figure out why it doesn't handle as well as the 330).
Head on over and check out the RS6 forum on Audiworld. After a couple of pages you will run away. |

the RS6 is a great car... if you can afford the extra gas and perhaps the slightly higher maintenance cost, then i say go for it...

I say do it if you got the money....RS6 is a monster and a very very unique automobile.

ughhh i was just on audiworld, in the rs6 section there almost ALL the posts are about repairs. ALL. here people talk about how the cars drive, there all they can talk about are the repairs theyve had to do to their cars, and how excited they are when audi comes out with a free recall. I really dont have the money for this car.....i mean i can buy the car, for sure, but its not like i have a job, im still in school.....do u guys think it would really be THAT bad

I wanted an RS6 SOOOO bad! I had a twin turbo Stg 2 S4. I met a gentleman at Sebring who said he just sold his RS6 and got a 335i. I screamed "Heresy", but; For all intents and purposes, just as fast, he said. Better car overall, less cost and BS.
I now own a 335i coupe. The RS6 cannot be after market warrantied and is blisteringly expensive to service. Is it a great car? F*** yeah! The OP has a 330? try the 335i... |

I think that the system that controls the active suspension (DRC?) on the RS6 is not covered by the extended warranties. This is usually a $4500 fix and is known to only last about a yr. There was some hoopla on audiworld that A0A is going to acknowledge that the units were defective and is going to reimburse the owners. I think that you have to find one with less than 50k to be able to get a good extended warranty and it would probably run at least $3500. I used to see a lot of them for sale right at about 50k which is when their is a major service due (read $$). Just to change O2 sensors requires an engine pull which is something like 12hrs for just the engine pull. |

Went to the dragstrip this weekend, not very fast. Best time was a 14.75 and trap speed of 95. Pretty sure car and driver timed it at 14.2, and i have an auto so its not like i shifted badly.
An rs6 would get in the 12's...and a 335 in the 13s. I need to get one of those |
