Guys, he's clearly talking used here.

You can get an 07-08 S8 for well within that 60k budget. You can also buy a used S5 within that $60k number.

With that said, they are completely...

C6 S6 Intake Manifold Replacement

My '07 C6 S6 (with 32k miles) has been developing a progressively rougher idle on cold start. Two weeks ago it started throwing a check engine light (CEL).

I brought it to the dealer and they...

The digital speedo seems to show 188. And fwiw, the 2013 GT-R does 0-60 in 2.9s which, while only .5s better, is still a light year away.

Thanks for sharing this link though, that's cool to see.

I don't think you have to worry about an S6 being tracked. It's just absolutely not for that. I always run my S6 "at temperature" - no short runs and I occasionally run it to the redline.

I can definitely recommend the APR 93 Octane tune. It feels good - the exhaust seems like it's gotten louder, if that's possible.
