V8 S6, some kind of scion, C63 - no glory, just funny
On the way to work ended up at a light in center lane with black 08? Audi S6 on my right - (V8 in any case) which is a pretty nice looking car by the way. Wasn't planning on doing anything - was just looking, plus I didn't know much about it's performance at the time. Then on my left a silver scion of some kind pulls up - and I see him keep inching up, sort of anxious appearing and I thought, whatever, this guys trying to get me to go. Then I realize he's looking over my hood at the S6! Like I said, I hadn't been planning on doing anything but mind my business, but that sorta irritated me (I know, it's a really juvenile reaction 
). So I switch ESP to sport, still not sure if I'm really going to punch it I don't even force it into 1st, and wait for the green light. S6 and other car accelerate briskly, not all out though, so I keep pace. S6 starts to speed up - and we're coming up on the speed limit already. So I do the mature thing ... I punch it. Took off on em both like an f-n Taipo Dong 2 missile! Like I said no glory, but hopefully the dude in the scion learned that he needs to KEEP HIS EYES ON THE AMG next time! LOL

I like the way Audis are styled too, they are just not as fast as their competition these days. They have the RS 6 in europe and I believe those come tturboed, makes no sense why they wouldn't offer them here...

I was mostly trying to show the Scion driver what's what - as far as Mercedes AMG vs Audi S. Didn't really want to rain on the Audi driver's parade too much. No one was really going all out anyway

Probably because the 450hp 4.2L V8 twin-turbo'd C5 RS6 wasn't exactly a hot seller.

I'm not 100% positive, but it definitely had a V8 badge behind the front wheel, and I'm pretty sure it said S6 on the trunk lid (but I didn't spend much time behind the vehicle 
) Other than that it was black and larger than my C63.

Last gen S6 (in wagon form ONLY) -- and it didn't have a V8 badge on the fender
B7 S4... which has a V8 badge
C5 A6 4.2... it's possible the guy's a poser and put on S6 and V8 badges... there's at least one guy around here who's done that.
