Hey Gents,
I need a new daily driver and I see myself inside a C6 S6. Its in my dreams now and I never even drove one. Love the engine, fit/finish, seats, subtlety… This would replace my 05 Acura RL which is becoming boring : and approaching 200K miles (love the AWD tho). It will probably last for another 100K or so but I’ve had enough. I’ve already kicked it out of the garage to make room 8) lol.
Would $15-20K get me a strong S6 that I take to 200K miles over the next several years? I see alot available at the price point. I tend to hold on to cars for a while and I can do all of my own maintenance/repair to a certain extend. I am aware of the FSI issues and carbon build-up but what about everyday driving reliability outside of regular maintenance? I’ll probably budget to yank the engine to replace a few parts (since i have no lift yet) but overall how has your experience been with this car as a daily driver?
