Very very nice!

Congrats.

Geor effing geous :love:

Legen - dairy.
Saloon definitely looks best +++

i finally get to see it :)

congrats for the C6, it is indeed a really great car, i am too very happy with mine and it is what i expected it to be, which is the combination of the D2 A8 and C5 RS6, it's just what i want from a car.

I agree though that the bucket seats aren't quite as comfortable as the sports ones, but they're absolutely great when driving on twisty roads, they're neither easy to get in and out.

All in all, let's enjoy these last V10 that were probably the last ones made +++

Tidy
 

I would love one of these, but the wife would ruin it with pottering around town.

So when does the detailing commence?

Great read Ian. There was me thinking I took buying a car seriously. What an amateur I am!!!

Cracking vehicle too.

Indeed. The big block 'just pour in more fuel' attitude to motorcar manufacture is dying. No. I mean dead.

I don't want to debate the pros/cons here about the current quality of Top Gear, but I did find Jeremys back to back review of the I8 and M3 interesting.

Hybrid / Electric technology is feeling ever closer, and its interesting it seems to be gaining traction at the performance end of market, as well as the eco city car end. Just look at Tesla. And that's come to market really very quickly in the grand scheme of automotive evolution.

I didn't really see that coming to be fair, so I wonder if the classic performance car setup will change quite quickly over the next few years....?

The current RS line up, all have stop/start, cylinder shutdown and other annoying interferences which just don't sound right on a performance car.

I bought this C6 specifically as I do truly believe its one of the very last no compromise, performance over emissions cars that was designed for driver experience over everything else

I know the C7 is on paper faster, more economical and got loads more toys. But, in the words of my local Audi Dealer - Modern Audis got no soul - and how you artificially inject that going forward I don't know.

Maybe you simply need a good blast of liquid T-rex flowing through the cars veins to give it some bite.... and the C6 sure has that... :D
