Hi all, Just joined and thought i should add some pics of my toy (read pride and joy, loved more than i love my kids, but dont tell em that :p) Got a list as long as my arm of things i want to do/going to do to it, but so far only got round to putting coilovers on and lowering a tad, and fitting lambo discs all round. Next up will be a full catless miltek exhaust system and then a engine & gearbox remap.
I spend all my money on drugs, women and fast cars, the rest i waste.

Nice cars the RS6, very quick. Are you sure it needs modifying?
Great colour too!
But never joke about loving a car more than your kids......
I'm aiming to be a legend, and I will be!

thanks for the comments guys!
As for the gearbox remap, its a auto box (RS6 only came with flappy paddle auto's) so you can change the map on them, main advantages are a smooth change, holds revs better and also able to make it drop into 5th @ 30mph, so it can sit at about 900rpm for round town poodling. I am already good friends with Rich, and discussions are well underway regarding the remaps!
As for the 'do I need more power' part, it already pulls about 450bhp as standard, the remap isnt just for power gains but for a smoother power delivery and fueling to increase mpg, tho more power is never a bad thing!
As for the kids comments, obviously it was an attempt at humor, although the kids cost me more and give me waaaaay more headaches :p lol
I have owned it for nearly 2 years now, without doubt the best 'all round car' I have owned.

Yeah unfortunately it would seem 'traditional' BMW drivers have moved to Audi's now (no offence intended to any BMW drivers, but you know what i mean).
