1st the car was in my # 1 color choice blk on blk, & has almost every option I wanted 2) It's my daily driver and shifting continuously gets quite monotonous
3) It's every bit as fast as the 6m, My friend Mario ran his SC'd E55 against his friends m6 w/z51 & Then I ran against Mario w/ the same exact outcome.

Though I will admit I wish I could have both A4 for (traffic day to day ****) and the M6 for racing, A4 does leave a little something to be desired.
Over all I'm extremely happy w/my Vette

The C6 is every bit of a performance machine; A4/A6/MN6.

Here's a video of an A4 with a ProCharger D1 and bolt-ons (10.4 @ 135 mph)...STOCK internals! Currently, he's running 10.22 @ 141 mph.

He doesn't say, probably in the 650rwhp range. He's pushing 12 PSI on stock bottom, pretty ballsy! Well, next time I'll ask him to slow it down a bit...you should see mine, I get moving so fast my paint starts to peel away.
