    Default I'm Baaaack - Audi A6 Content

    Well, I finally have the car together enough for some nice photos. Some around these parts will remember my previous car, this was my B5.5 Passat: Jordan R. - Alpharetta, GA, was out of the game for a while, but finally back and going strong.

    The new car is a 2006 Audi A6 4.2 S-Line, Black on Black, I bought it last June in Chicago, drove it down to GA where it sat for a while as I was figuring everything else out. Suspension was installed back in December, and then a few months were spent on the stereo (still needs some work, so no pictures of that yet).

    Now for the info...current mods are:

    Suspension
    - Airlift Slam Series Struts (Front and Rear)

    Management
    - Accuair E-Level w/ Rocker Switch
    - (2) Viar 444c Compressors
    - (2) 3 Gallon Tanks

    Wheels/Tires
    - 20 x 9.5 et35 Carlsson 2/6
    - 235/30/20 Hankook V12

    Engine
    - Custom Exhaust w/ 4'' Double Walled Angle Cut tips

    Exterior
    - OEM S6 Black Optik Trim Front Grill
    - OEM Filler Plate custom painted by OEMPLUS Brilliant Black
    - Debaged A6 and 4.2 Logos (Audi rings coming off the back next)

    Interior
    - Black Suede Wrapped Headliner and Pillars
    - OEM S6 Black Overhead Lighting Consoles (Front and Rear)

    Stereo
    Arc Audio PS8 Processor
    Arc Audio KS1000.1 (2 - one for each sub)
    Arc Audio KS300.4 (2 - one bridged on midbass, other for midrange and tweet)
    Arc Audio ARC15 (2 - Subwoofers)
    Hybrid Audio L1R2 (tweeters)
    Hybrid Audio L3SE (midrange)
    Hybrid Audio L6v2 (midbass)

    I think that is it for now...all the management is hidden in the spare tire well, will get pictures of the trunk stereo and management once it get's cleaned up a little.

    I was down in Daytona this weekend for a show (Spring Break Nationals) and we went out on the beach for some pictures. All photos taken by Tony Nguyen (CarbonGS), so here they are:























    As always comments are welcome and criticism...also welcome, just most likely ignored It feels good to be back!

    Yea...they were nice and clean when it was inside:



    ...but after driving on the beach, I wasn't about to start trying to brush all the sand off, shine them up, just to move it for more shots at different angles and get them covered in sand again...

    Its just the roof line that is unattractive to me. If it was another Audi, I would love it.

    Looks good Jordan. Not my type of modding...but see your still doing the same clean VIP style as all the previous cars.

    On a side note...you need to stop buffing your paint with a rotary. It shows. lol

    Thanks for the compliment.

    As far as a rotary...I didn't...car was sitting in the shop until Friday at 3, drove 500 miles, sprayed it down at a self wash in Daytona then a quick Show Car Mist and a quick Ebony polish by hand. It needs a real detail...that was the second time it had been "cleaned" in 10 months of ownership. Lol.

    Your Passat definitely trumped this car, man. I'm glad you did chrome wheels over painted, although I'm not too keen on the style. This car is ok, but the Passat was your shit.
    FOR MORE INFO, CLICK THE PIC!!!

    I loved the Passat...and got very close to building another one, going all out, similar style to the old one, but crazier all around, but decided it would most likely never live up to the old one and decided to do something different.

    As far as the wheels, they are definitely a polarizing style, Carlsson stopped making them in the late 90s and I have not seen a set in the US for at least 10 years (not saying these are the only ones, just saying I personally have not seen any) so they are a unique wheel, which in the VW/Audi game is hard to do at times. I figure I will roll them for a while and change it up when I get bored. The Passat had 5 sets of wheels through it's lifetime and I don't expect this one to be any different. For now they sit where I want them to and I am not tired of the chrome yet...so we shall see.

    I loved the allroad, sometimes wish I had kept it and built a monster out if that 2.7T motor, but I wanted something classier for this build and have always loved the C6 A6 stance on air.

    No such thing as too low

    I never really noticed this roof line until you pointed it out. Doesn't change my opinion of the car.
