**better RS6 spy pics, AND E63 QUESTION!!

hey guys,

i was checking out some car sites and saw some better rs6 spy pics and i have a question. heres the link btw.


http://www.worldcarfans.com/spyphoto...red-spy-photos

ONE QUESTION- since theres rumors that the rs6 will be cranking out anywhere from 500-600 horses from the TT, my question is will there be a e63 TT?? if there is, will it be expensive and exclusive like the clk BS? or will it be the normal 85-90k msrp? sorry for the dumb question, but this is a benz forum, and i have a benz question!

There is no plans for a W211 E63 TT. What engine will wind up in the next generation E-Class AMG remains to be seen.

i have to say that i'm quite disappointed in the looks of the new RS6. way too tame w/ no aggressive wheelarches like the old RS6.

In my opinion the RS6 is busted, the new RS4 is a sweet looking and sounding car, but then again its not that impressive from a drag race stand point. `

The final version will look much more aggressive. This is still just the prototype as the car will not be in dealers for another 12 months. I will be putting down my deposit as soon as the dealer is in a position to start accepting them.

As to the poster who describes the RS6 as "busted"- a twin turbo V10 putting out 550-600bhp with AWD allied to a DSG gearbox is clearly going to be the benchmark car for the segment.

I agree that the bodywork isn't final at all. If the RS4 is any suggestion, those fenders will be significantly flared out, and hopefully the LED's find their way back to the front end because I'm definitely a fan. If they offer red interior, I will be on that list. Its either that or an RS5!

All Audi needs now is a 600+ hp RS8, then the job will be complete.

even if Audi RS6 produces 500hp in stock trim.

Having 2 little turbos goes along way. Tuners dream!!

Just see the latest developments with the BMW 335i Procede V2 (close to 100RWHP and torque over stock engine) just with tuning and exhaust.

If and when this thing is released, we better have a better answer than the current E63.

that's what i was thinking. a german built v10 with a set of turbos, should be really beastly. that's why i was wondering if benz is going to step up, but we have to wait and see.

My dealer mentioned to me that in 2009 MB is planning a supercharged E63 engine. I don't know how true that statement is but that's the one I'm waitng for.

Hahaha I wasn't gonna say it, but yeah what the hell is this guy still doing here, and still pretending he has a 997TT???

All jokes aside, I'm still skeptical about aftermarket support for the RS6. Audi tuners are notoriously conservative, and extremely pricey. The $20k blower kit for the R8/RS4??? Are you friggin kidding me????? You can put a blower on a Z06 for $5k. Seriously what are they doing, making the impeller out of platinum?
