@@BrandoDrum Thats literally why they work so closely together with ABT Tuning, VAG has emission restrictions because they sell allot of cars world wide (like all big European automobil manufacturers). Only small manufacturers who sell a limited amount of vehicles like Ferrari or Koenigsegg can do whatever they want with their engines OR the more "enviroment friendly vehicles" they can sell the more V8's/V6's they're allowed to sell. So since VAG has a couple of fast and "exotic" brands under it's belt they had to make sacrifices like preformance restrictions, rev-limiters, GPF-filters, etc. To be able to keep Porsche, Lamborghini and Bugatti fast. Solution? ABT Tuning! Since they're independant they can legaly remove all that crap and tune the heavily restricted Audi engine to it's actual potential since they qualify as a "small manufacturer", it's a loophole and thus a win-win for both companies. Thats why they deliberately make them so easy to ECU Tune.
My God the RS6 looks sooooooo good. Insanely stunning design!! Definitely my pick of the 2, even though you'd still be winning with the E63S. Both cars are absolutely sensational
Great video guys. This is by far the most excited head 2 head you've ever done so far. I have massive respect for the E63S, but I think the RS6 did a great job, being a non-Performance version (otherwise it should be compare to the non-S E63). Having said that, I really do think the RS6 is the best looking car on the planet. Thanks again!
RS6 is “being a non-performance version”??? May I remained you that, originally an A6 rolled off the assembly line when no one even thought about producing a highest performance RS version(being S version a higher performance of A6). So, what RS is then(I know about the pointless plus one though!)??
I actually saw a RS6 earlier today on the fwy, it was that exact color if I remember correctly, what a beast wow. I’d take the RS6 between these two simply because I own an GT63S, two different monsters is better than two of the same monsters. 🙌

The alpine b3 touring is pretty sexy. But yeah, hard to beat the RS6 in terms of aesthetics, though the Merc here isn't bad either. I would even describe it as majestic (well at least a non-pink specced one).
The music effects at the beginning gave me flashbacks to that amazing Jon Bois documentary on the Mariners. Also these cars are sick. Glad the RS6 is awesome for the 14 people that will buy it out of the 14 million that wanted it.
Those pink accents look like a celebration after the lady gets divorced and gets to keep the AMG while the guy is still paying for it!!! Absolutely tasteless.....
Finally! finally, someone showed the world that even though Audi is always at the bottom of the score board when it comes to German performance cars and their spec sheet in comparison to the "M" and "AMG" family in their stock form, all it takes is a Tune!

I recently rented an Audi A4 S-Line premium for a quick 3 day trip from North Carolina to Long Island, NY, about 700 miles each way and it was so much nicer then I anticipated. I have owned a 2022 Jetta, a 2016 Passat R-Line and I was expecting the Audi to be a mox of these two but it is so much more. Power from the mild Hybrid A4 made it fun enough to drive and made passing on the highway effortless. I looked down and saw triple digits to my surprise way to often. I am 6 foot 1 290lbs and I was comfortable enough to drove the entire 12 hours, even with a bad hip and a my back being out. The heated seats helped and I really felt fine after the trip. The Audi was optioned above its price with all the tech, sound system, screens and 360 camera. The interior lighting was classy and non intrusive and even had door sill lighting. Cargo space was fine for 2 people and luggage. It all fit in trunk and Ianaged 36mpg on my trip. I went from Huntington L.I. to just into NC on one tank and had about 80 miles to empty when I refueled. My wife liked it so much we are thinking of trading in her Civic Si for one, the used marked is fair, with A4 S-Line premiums 2022 with 40k miles going for low 20k. Just thought I would throw some realistically car priced opinions out there. I also loved my 2016 Passat Rline. That car is limousine big, huge truck, good on gas and rides sporty. So there are options.
I hate wagons, if your a female, I might understand why, but if your not you better have a good reason like your wife forced you to buy it over a non wagon, or she will kill you because you have 6+ kids that u need to fit, or if your a British ahole of course

@@BrandoDrum Thats literally why they work so closely together with ABT Tuning, VAG has emission restrictions because they sell allot of cars world wide (like all big European automobil manufacturers).
Only small manufacturers who sell a limited amount of vehicles like Ferrari or Koenigsegg can do whatever they want with their engines OR the more "enviroment friendly vehicles" they can sell the more V8's/V6's they're allowed to sell.
So since VAG has a couple of fast and "exotic" brands under it's belt they had to make sacrifices like preformance restrictions, rev-limiters, GPF-filters, etc. To be able to keep Porsche, Lamborghini and Bugatti fast.
Solution? ABT Tuning!
Since they're independant they can legaly remove all that crap and tune the heavily restricted Audi engine to it's actual potential since they qualify as a "small manufacturer", it's a loophole and thus a win-win for both companies.
Thats why they deliberately make them so easy to ECU Tune.
My God the RS6 looks sooooooo good. Insanely stunning design!! Definitely my pick of the 2, even though you'd still be winning with the E63S. Both cars are absolutely sensational
EuroCharged Canada, that tune was 🔥🔥 800hp & 900lb-ft
feel like tuning my AMG now
So they Q’ed it.
Whoever put pink on that Merc should be charged with a crime.
Pink on any car should trigger an automatic confiscation and permanent revocation of driving privileges.
@@fivespeed3026 no man the pink is kinda great
It's just a color, get over it 🤦🏻♂️
@@SERGG02 it’s “just a color” would never be spoken by a car guy. Color is significant. Even resale values are partially dependent on color.
Agreed
I’ve always wanted the E63s wagon but after watching this, I NEED it!!
It wouldn't take much at all for an RS6 to pull the front end with that massive weight transfer. I want an RS6 so bad.
I've watched this multiple times without regret, I love this episode
Absolutely best and most accurate comment: ”Ooooooh, testosterone...”
I love that Audi but the Mercedes is definitely a solid choice.
Can’t go wrong with either one

@@osiris654 For 90% of the planet, that is a lot for a car.
@@osiris654 weird flex but okay
Great video guys. This is by far the most excited head 2 head you've ever done so far. I have massive respect for the E63S, but I think the RS6 did a great job, being a non-Performance version (otherwise it should be compare to the non-S E63). Having said that, I really do think the RS6 is the best looking car on the planet. Thanks again!
500+ HP = Non Performance... hahahaha
@@davidestate yes in the previous model there was a performance model with more hp
RS6 is “being a non-performance version”??? May I remained you that, originally an A6 rolled off the assembly line when no one even thought about producing a highest performance RS version(being S version a higher performance of A6). So, what RS is then(I know about the pointless plus one though!)??
Hey Friend looking forward to next upload on your channel ✌🏿#Audigang
Audi fanboy things 😂😂😂😂
I actually saw a RS6 earlier today on the fwy, it was that exact color if I remember correctly, what a beast wow. I’d take the RS6 between these two simply because I own an GT63S, two different monsters is better than two of the same monsters. 🙌
Every time he turns a corner, there’s a new Pope! 🤣
I didn’t understand that comment
@@nathanwoods2088 Whenever a Pope dies, all the cardinals get together to select a new one, and when they do the signal that to the crowds with black smoke from a specific chimney in St Peters square basilica in the Vatican.

That was the funniest comment by James in a long time :D
Ah, the RS6. Has there ever been a sexier looking sledgehammer?
Yup. That Mercedes.
Panamera ??
@@tsukamano Ew no.
@@ivanjovanovic362 nah, rs6 looks better. Merc just looks boring
The alpine b3 touring is pretty sexy. But yeah, hard to beat the RS6 in terms of aesthetics, though the Merc here isn't bad either. I would even describe it as majestic (well at least a non-pink specced one).
That Audi is just perfect ❤
The music effects at the beginning gave me flashbacks to that amazing Jon Bois documentary on the Mariners. Also these cars are sick. Glad the RS6 is awesome for the 14 people that will buy it out of the 14 million that wanted it.
That RS6 launch with tune. 🤩
Omfg the way that Audi launched after the tune just killed me🤣 wheels looking like they coming off the ground
Uuuuhhhh am pretty sure they did
LITERALLY 😭😭😭
fam i seen every episode, major old school top gear energy, LOVE FROM DUBAI!
That was the most fun anyone has ever had in a car. That is why I like watching these two guys.
The best duo of car reviews
Those pink accents look like a celebration after the lady gets divorced and gets to keep the AMG while the guy is still paying for it!!! Absolutely tasteless.....
The Audi is just jaw-dropping holy smokes
Finally! finally, someone showed the world that even though Audi is always at the bottom of the score board when it comes to German performance cars and their spec sheet in comparison to the "M" and "AMG" family in their stock form, all it takes is a Tune! Ever since the emission sandal, vw/audi have been "de-tuning" their car HEAILY. Way more then MB or BMW. i witnessed it many times as a vw/audi tech. and a Audi S4 owner. Throttle house I take my hat off to you. Another amazing video!
This is awesome! I was lucky enough to have the 2021 E63S for a week to review. Brilliant vehicle!
You're seriously using Throttle house to get more subscribers on your own channel? I hope they are friends of yours. Otherwise, real pathetic/dick move.
An attorney just traded his 19 e63s less than 9000 miles and bought new 21 X7 because he needed to trailor his bikes to the mx tracks and needed more room.

I don’t get it can you explain it ?
@@Paidinfull416 when a new pope is selected, a chimney in St Peters square puts out white smoke. Black smoke during the selection process.
@@Paidinfull416 "I don't know how much smoke it's putting out, it feels like a lot"
It is a lot, so much so that you could elect a pope with it - see @TMM13 comment
@@Paidinfull416 When a new Pope is being voted in there is a chimney at the vatican that has smoke coming out of it. If the smoke is black, there is still no new Pope, but if the smoke is white, a new Pope has been chosen.
EPIC LINE!
I recently rented an Audi A4 S-Line premium for a quick 3 day trip from North Carolina to Long Island, NY, about 700 miles each way and it was so much nicer then I anticipated. I have owned a 2022 Jetta, a 2016 Passat R-Line and I was expecting the Audi to be a mox of these two but it is so much more. Power from the mild Hybrid A4 made it fun enough to drive and made passing on the highway effortless. I looked down and saw triple digits to my surprise way to often. I am 6 foot 1 290lbs and I was comfortable enough to drove the entire 12 hours, even with a bad hip and a my back being out. The heated seats helped and I really felt fine after the trip. The Audi was optioned above its price with all the tech, sound system, screens and 360 camera. The interior lighting was classy and non intrusive and even had door sill lighting. Cargo space was fine for 2 people and luggage. It all fit in trunk and Ianaged 36mpg on my trip. I went from Huntington L.I. to just into NC on one tank and had about 80 miles to empty when I refueled. My wife liked it so much we are thinking of trading in her Civic Si for one, the used marked is fair, with A4 S-Line premiums 2022 with 40k miles going for low 20k. Just thought I would throw some realistically car priced opinions out there. I also loved my 2016 Passat Rline. That car is limousine big, huge truck, good on gas and rides sporty. So there are options.
My love for Wagons will never die! 💪🏾
Mfwethu im the same!!
100%
💯sir
I hate wagons, if your a female, I might understand why, but if your not you better have a good reason like your wife forced you to buy it over a non wagon, or she will kill you because you have 6+ kids that u need to fit, or if your a British ahole of course
My next car! Probably going with the Audi next summer but they’re both incredible.
I think I might recommend a tune, no reason
My father bought the E63s last year after our Cayenne died, best decision he ever made in my opinion
Good choice literally better than an e63 in almost a barely noticeable performance that u can fix with a stage 1 tune
@@adamlohr4287 Not really, the E63s has 1820 liters worth of space in the boot, the RS6 only 1680 liters. Also the Audi is wider if I remember correctly, which is quite an disadvantage here in europe, since everything is a bit smaller than in the US
Don’t buy it just lease it in my opinion
"Every time he turns a corner, there's a new pope!" Best line so far.
Literally.......where do they come up with these unforgettable jokes(that make you wonder)
watching from the philippines, love your channel guys! the best!!! keep it up.
I remember first time I got my Audi S3 tuned from the standard 265bhp to 380bhp...I grinned the whole drive home and refused to get out of 2nd gear because of the sheer power it delivered.
This is my favorite episode ever.
when you guys argue about the cars before the racing, gives me big Top Gear energy
yep felt that to
I like the banter between these two, fun to watch
I completely agree with Thomas the E63 AMG S wagon is the best all around car on sale today
I'd disagree and I would say the new m340i is the best overall car on sale today
@@shak2186 unless your in the European market they don’t sell it as a wagon in North America
@@shak2186 e63s is better in every way, it is in a digferent league, can't compare them lol. However if you can't aford the e63s the m340i is a great choice to

Just entered the Omaze donation for the Audi RS6 Avant. It is by far my favorite vehicle to ever be made. I entered because I recently had my car in a fairly bad accident and it continues to have issues. Having the car of my dreams would be the greatest thing ever. I’ve always had a big passion for wagons. However, if any of my donations don’t lead to getting anything from the sweepstakes, at least they all go towards a good cause. Throttle House is absolutely my favorite channel to watch on RUclips for everything I need to know about cars. I am a huge car person and I have a huge passion for cars. Keep up the awesome quality content you guys bring! I love seeing y’all’s videos and I’m pretty sure I’ve watched every single video you guys have ever published.
😂😂😂 James’s face after his win on the dragstrip was hilarious. Love the channel guys
I think this is the best video this channel has ever done, just exceptionally fantastic.
The w212 refresh e63 s wagon is the best wagon you could buy....the quality is better than the new ones and the noise is better too...
but no drift mode.
That still of the RS6 launch just haunched back like a leopard was just wild
The Audi looks are far more appealing then the Mercedes
Not with a new design because in the amg the design it’s last design but with the new design Mercedes will eat Audi in every way and that’s just what it is end of it
