A6 2.7TQ impressions

[Phillips, Kevin]

We are talking very light heartedly about 0-62mph times that are incredible
and actually unnecessary, even dangerous in 99% of drivers hands.
What size are the nuts on top of the wastegate, 470 ohms for the MAC14
???????

Not that very long leap.
The 1991 200 20VQ needs 6,6 seconds to sprint to 100 kmh from standstill,
and
topped out at 242 kmh.
The 1991 V8Q needs 7,6 seconds to do the same sprint and did 244 on top.
The 2001 A6 2,7TQ does the sprint test in 7,5 and tops 245.
As you can see, the 200 20VQ and even your V8Q blows the doors off the A6
2,7TQ in the sprint test, but in real driving the A6 may be faster, it is
after all 10 years newer, and as Audi uses as a motto: Vorsprung durch
Technic; Advantage from technichs.

Btw; The S6 takes the 0-100 dash in 5,7 secs and is governed @ 250 kmh.
Same time for the 2001 S4, while the 2001 S8 cuts off another 0,3 in the
sprint time, to 5,4.
The RS4 is just a bit slower than the time it takes to transfer Your money
to
Audi's account when you purchase it: 4,9 seconds. All cars stops at 250 kmh.

All these figures are Audi's official figures for the German spec 6-speed
sedans.
