Picked up the Audi S6 today. Currently the rain has changed to snow. Will take photos when weather permits. Seems I will need to get a degree in computer science to operate this thing. I drove 30 miles before I figured out how to adjust the volume for the radio. The volume adjust was on the steering wheel which was the last place I looked.
Not driving too hard yet as it is recommended to drive easy the first 500 miles fro engine break in. I found out that a RS6 is planned. The same engine as the S6, 7, and 8, but it is tuned to around 600 hp.
My 1995 Buick has the volume and other radio controls on the steering wheel. Love it.
And I forgot to mention: May 30, 2013... snowing in the Colorado mountains.
Congratulations. Looking fwd to the pictures; it’s just starting to be convertible weather here in Central Oregon.
It used to be that you’d know the cars controls in the 15 minute drive home from the dealership. I’ve got 6 manuals for the 335i BMW. Each deals with a separate part of the car. Two engineering examples on my BMW: I had to call the dealership when I stopped to get gas on the way home as I couldn’t get the “key” out of the slot. (It’s not really a key, I’ll have to post a picture) You have to push in twice to release the key which you really don’t need to put in the slot - you can have it in your pocket to open the locked car (just touch the door handle) or start the engine. There are sonar radar ports in each exterior corner of the BMW that beep inside the car for parking. Different sounding beeps for front and back. Different speed of beeps too + a solid tone if you are really close to an object. In reverse the exterior mirrors also automatically point down to curb level. I have “paired” my iphone with the car but I’ve only learned half the controls on the dash/steering wheel/column and I’ve had the car for 2 months.
