Woolly steering on an Audi? But surely the fancy lights make up for that? Imagine how stylish you would look if you remember to signal as you're understeering into a ditch.

Great competition I play it

JayEmm on Cars substitute the word ‘wild’ for ‘anaemic’ and you’d have a more accurate video title.

You have got more chance of catching the coronavirus than winning a supercar with BOTB.

JayEmm on Cars I get that you need sponsors but BOTB cheapens your channel. You lose kudos for it. BOTB is just one big pipe dream rip off.

😂

Well, it is now!

actual lol!

Catering - check! BiFi-Roll is on board 😂😂

Yeah I mean no HUD or 360 cam in a car like this as std? Alright 360 cam I can live with as an option. But no HUD for £90k is criminal

Yes but not made anywhere near to the standard of a German!!!

@@mattdaines8054 you sure? Toyotas and their luxury division, Lexus have consistently done fantastically in reliability surveys.

@@aaronhussain3873 Ford, Vauxhall and Peugeot usually do better than the German makes in reliability surveys.

@@mattdaines8054 pretty sure chevy (corvette) and higher end toyota (lexus) are just as high quality as ze gehmanz

I agree, haven't driven many of the RS range at speed in various situations I think they can all be tamed within the first drive. As fast as they are, they do get boring.

Not just you getting older, that's just how it is now. A 300bhp Toyota starlet say with a big turbo will feel like an absolute rocketship even though it's going much slower than this thing could

The old cars where faster it’s al because of air quality regulations. Audi does not want a scandal again. Think if you bring it to a tuner they might get it back to what it was before.

@@cheezy2455 This all depends on where you live. Yes there will be 1000hp+ rs6's out there, just like the last model. ABT is making 50 RS6+ models with 705hp, and they will do 200mph. Get your wallet out.

We dont wanna end up like Paul Walker in the Carrera, but Yes those true cars RIP Paul Walker.

Chris Milligan exactly. Of course it going to shirt like that at low speed in the sharpest mode.

Like it or not, this is still just a family car for wealthy people and will mostly be driven at low speeds.

@@user-li1mj1jx2j You just wont notice the ones that are hauling ass, cause if you blink you wont see em.

futility of human endeavor yes in comfort mode

I have a B9 S5 SB and the calibration is very similar. It's either way too tame or way too aggressive, there's no normal middle ground.

oh yeah that blue RS2..what icon

Exactly. Powerful saloons and estates do not seem to have the luxury of "plenty enough" power anymore, they seem and look high strung.

The back of this wagon is pure sex, the rear quarter panels just keep falling out, and out, giving it a super low and wide look, and the lines on the hood, when covered in the silver/grey metallic paint are absolutely stunning. You need to take a look at this car in that flat metallic silver/grey color. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d7JnpK5myr6yZmw.html It is beautiful, best avant ever made imho, and i own a b8.5 avant, on bags and 20's.

totally agree, this new C8 looks far too overstyled

My friend had a C7 RS6 and I have this C8, both of us agreed the C8 looks much better than old ones. I love the aggressive look of the C8 and this is what stood out from the M5 and E63s, which both of them look like a standard 5 series and E class from some angle. Don’t forget you are paying £100k+ for the RS6, you want to make sure the design is on point and stood out from others. You don’t want to pay £100k+ car without looking like a £100k car

TD Immanuel new exhaust regulations sadly

Akrapovitch will solve this

Reality is often disappointing

It sounds like a diesel for me

@Uncle Joe S suits the car 😒

I would love to but Mercedes don't even answer my emails!

JayEmm on Cars that’s not like Mercedes, at all........ I had the unfortunate experiences to visit my local Mercedes Main Stealer, for a couple of years (oddly enough on topic) whilst running a new E63s W212. Every time I collected the car there was an issue. In the end I was dreading taking it, I didn’t like them and it felt like they didn’t like me because I wasn’t prepared to lay down roll over and let them tickle my tummy like most other punters - whilst they chatted shit to them with excuses. So...........COME ON Mercedes give the big fella a platform with your products/services & prove us wrong that you’re not the arrogant & aloof Motor Company that a lot of people have you down as. For the record Mercedes Benz marketing people. I know your reading this (manufactures have people in place to trawl social media sites especially up n coming future Influencers), the engine in my 5.5L V8 Twin Turbo hand built by Francesco (can’t remember his surname) was a masterpiece. He was obviously on a run of form when he put it together and I think he squeezed quite a lot more horses than the 585 it was meant to be putting out! The ball is in your Court Mercedes. I’d much rather have Jay inside the tent pissing out, than outside the tent pissing in - yes I know cheap shot at German “specialist” films. At least I didn’t mention Mouths & Shitting though.........Boom I’m here all week 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

@@JayEmmOnCars If, you're name's not. Shmee 150 and on the list you are not getting any. AMG Merc's

Just take some of the lug nuts out of the wheels, you'll get that feeling back.

Your not slipping under the radar at 190mph, no matter how subtle you look.

The old one literally looked like a normal a6. Nothing in your face about it.

@@lukaposeidon8490 The A6 was fairly in-your-face anyway, plus the RS6 had various spoilers added.

@@julianevans9548 No my dude. Audis in general aren't in your face, i shouldn't even start talking about the a6. Looked pretty but nothing exciting. But talking of this new rs6. It's a lot more in your face, but still not like the gt63s amg.

Julian Evans true that, the first and second generation were still a bit of sleepers. Nowadays everything has to be so shouty. It’s a shame in my opinion, nothing as cool as a wolf in sheep clothing

It is supposed to be in your face, that’s the whole point.

Why should they. Everybody is entitled to their opinions and they asked him his. He didn’t pan it but gave constructive criticism. It’s not like we are living in Nazi Germany you know.

it's winter playz I agree!

Wrong the Alpina B5 & B6 Bi-Turbo touring tested at 198mph, while there are other wagons that were tested over 200; BMW M5 touring 205, Bently SuperSports Flying Star 205, or you could get the ABT Audi RS 6 avant.

Detonate Klubstompers ABT is a tuner so it’s a tuned rs6 and not longer a stock one like a Alpina. Didn’t know the Bentley is a station wagon?

@@klubstompers There ain't at BMW M5 Touring. The one and only 200 mph factory Touring stock car is the BMW Alpina B5 Biturbo Touring.

The E60 M5 had a touring version

@@JayEmmOnCars Yes, it had, back then.

A 160hp Mk2 Escort would be so much more fun to drive than this.

I wonder why Audi didn't add the switchable RWD mode like you get in the M5 and E63s.

M5 wagon?

@@AirsoftUK909 Because that is not how Quattro works.

@@klubstompers quattro just means 4wd ..Audi have a number of different set ups ..they tend to use the Haldex set up on S models and the Torsen system on RS models ..torsen can send 100% of the torque to the rear wheels if required so theres no mechanical reason why they couldn't do it...my guess would be that as they always plonk the engine over the front wheels a fully RWD RS6 would be a pendulum

​@@dagnut I thought Quattro could only do a 85 15 split. I didnt think it could completely unlock the front from the center diff crown gear, and that Haldex could only send 100% to the rear? I know haldex, which has never been used on an rs6, or rs for that matter, can send it all to one axle with esc, but didnt think it could send it to front or back 100% with torsen?

RS7 did terrible job at Sport Auto Hockenheim GP track test. Understeer comes as standard in this one. I wouldn't expect any better from an RS6. Allegedly it feels way better on the road, but still less engaging than a Mercedes counterpart.

Thanks!

Detonate Klubstompers that’s why everyone who doesn’t have their own double clutch box uses it, it’s not perfect though, you need to make sure it’s in the right gear before nailing it.

merc and bmw have even worse options and look shit and gay inside and out

@@kodz12345 how old are you? Have got any fluff downstairs yet?

Go to an Audi dealer and ask to sit in this car, i guarantee you, that you will like this interior. As far as the "my way or the highway", there are a ton of interior specs you can get this in, with different materials and styles when ordering this car. I dont see how BW or Benz would be any diff?

@@klubstompersI've been in the regular A6. I hate the stepped dash on the passenger side. I know all the German manufacturers do the same and I think WLPT has made this worse. But come on, Audi and their exhausts are taking the piss

All new cars are a joke in pricing, the further from a shopping car the worst the pricing gets.... there’s a LOT of well off people and a lot of finance. Normal wages just haven’t kept pace.

Not sure I'd call it a joke per se but the level of equipment you DON'T get is.

Wait for the 3 year depreciation gap then prices will be more realistic

@@staceymcgrath3376 this is true, especially since this model is arguably less desirable than out going model, so I'd bet this could loose more money over the same amount of time.

Resale of the audi is significantly better than the E63, that much I can tell you

Is resale on a brand new model calculable?

@@markjohnson8352 it's based on evaluation of past models and such

@@JayEmmOnCars Thank you.

@@markjohnson8352 finance companies of course have to do the maths to work out what to charge for their PCP and lease deals

James Dean is many things, cameraman he is not

Are they hot on that? I dont even drink so it didnt worry me!

It gets views sadly

Thanks! Meet ups are hard but I am thinking about it

Meet up, YES. Make it so JM :-)

I've got a longer version coming for you to enjoy

Actually press cars can be great buys - they are used but they are also maintained to a ridiculously high standard.

For me yeah either of those. I mean the Panamera started off as a joke. But it's a really good car now that looks good. I'd choose it over this......not that I ever be in that position

invisiblekid99 Nor me, I’d be happy with a 330d touring with a few miles on it!

Got to stand out! I actually drove two different RS6s in the week - a Nardo Grey fully loaded one too

JayEmm on Cars thanks for replying. Really appreciated. I subscribed. Keep up the good work. This is a goals car. Totally agree about the screen for the temperature gauges. Hate it. Cheers from Canada.

@@AlexSami-qw4qu thanks for subscribing!

Yep, Audi just like honest content from passionate petrolheads, they're great people to work with

@@JayEmmOnCars It so funny sometimes when you have worked in the business and see those little details sometimes. There is a new car and on each channel. they tell you the same technical details, the history behind the idea, what the goals are the car wants to achieve, how better this and that feels because it`s improved by x percent, how light the this and that is now because it lost 5 pounds. It`s kind of reading down the press release or mirroring the press presentations you have before lunchtime. One guy talks, videos, and graphics are shown - and that`s what you hear from 85% of the journalists later on. When I see that pattern its kind of boring and eye-rolling moment. So I am very pleased for more "unconventional" reviews.

There is mention of the hybrid system at the end I think. The vibrating throttle pedal was simply annoying.

@@JayEmmOnCars Sorry if I missed that bit, it is why I was very happy with the C7 this model will be sanitised by its smart electronics....I think.. but I will wait until I get my invite... :-)

Sorry chap, check again - it's a twin clutch in the Bentley

@@JayEmmOnCars indeed my friend, i just checked , my bad ! I was convinced they now had an 8speed auto ! Keep up the good work!
