Default RS6 Last edition 476 hp V Max 175 mph

A limited edition of 350 units (RS6 Avant) will go for sale in Europe.

No pics yet...but the color combination looks really good!<ul><li><a href="http://www.rs6.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&amp;threadid=3308">RS6 Last edition</a></li></ul>

Default Wow, so it has enough HP for over 190mph, but they've increased the limiter all the way to 175mph?

WOW! &lt;/sarcasm&gt;

Default About 155 MPH.

USA speed limiter is usually 153MPH or 155PMH.
You chip the car, and the speed limiter is no longer there. Fast fast fast!!!

A bunch of S4 guys have confirmed "dead on" GPS accuracy at high speeds with the B5 S4's speedo.
