A few pics of my '03 RS6
Some pics of my '03 RS6. Here's a list of the mods:
REVO Flash: 515 hp/500 lb torque
19" rims (R8 knock-offs)
A6 RNS-E Nav + Bluetooth
Euro Black Optics package
35% window tint
I think that these mods help make this '03 beast look more like today's super cars. Most folks who see it think it's a 2010 S6, and then they look closer and are very surprised to learn that it's a 6 year old car. What do you think?

RS6 question
First, nice car!
I have been considering a '04 RS6 for a DD, but my mechanic is steering me away because he thinks Audi's have electrical issues... Any truth or known issues with these cars??
Thanks,
MG

No electrical problems here either at 52k.
The C5 RS6 was produced in the U.S. only one model year-- 2003-- and only about 850ish were sold, so you don't see many on the road. (The next generation (C6) RS6 was recently produced outside the US this year ('09)-- and it's a beast with 570+ hp-- but this car (I've read) will never make it to the U.S., at least not anytime soon).
I like the extra 65 horses from the REVO flash, and so far the tranny has been perfect. The car feels stronger/faster from 40mph-80mph. It's not a terribly expensive mod --about $750-- so well worth it in my view.
I think a well-maintained '03 RS6 is the absolute best bang for the buck in the sedan world today. $30k will get you a nice one. I'd recommend spending an extra $4-5k to get an aftermarket warranty just for peace of mind... Even at $35-$40k the car is still a steal for what it give you.

Thanks... need more help
Hi again,
Sorry to jack this thread, but need some more guidance from the RS6'ers before I go out and buy one of these beasts...
Wheels:
If I purchase one of these rockets, I'm going to need a set of dedicated winter wheels, so need to understand fitment. Does the RS6 use the same wheels (offsets, size) as the A6, S6, A4, S4?
Thanks,
MG

MG,
Go here for answers to all of your questions: RS6.com. The short answer is no, fitments are different for the cars you mentioned. I use the stock rims for winter use with blizzaks, and I run 19" R-8 knock-offs the rest of the year.
