- We review the $120,000 2021 Audi RS 6 Avant Wagon to show the world how to slide under the radar at 180MPH. Get ready for extreme detail and engineering explanation of all of the work that goes into making this land yacht fast and smooth. With supercar speed, it is easy to forget it's a pure sleeper luxury car underneath. Other options are, Lamborghini Urus, Porsche Cayenne, Audi RSQ8, AMG E63S, or a boring old M5 Sedan.
Have a need for some serious work or to buy an amazing car?

Can't wait to be the 8th owner of one of these in 11 years.
Imagine how laggy the infotainment will be then
Why not get a base one for a $109? See 1:33
The air ride suspension should be cheap to replace by then to.
Hahaha your a brave man
and then 11 years later all ICE cars are banned
16:13 - "My favorite part about this car is watching that number climb" as the speedo edit makes it go from 60 to 59 lmao
it's not an edit bro, it's a new negative speed sensor bukkake
He did not want to incriminate himself. Just innocently driving along at the speed limit
That is how it looks like "on a road in Mexico"
Did not want to be on record as a Super Speeder.
@@firstlast9504 Well, they missed something this time.
Finally a car that can fit my Costco 80" Hisense TV for my wife's boyfriend's fitness room
Audi understands their customers well
That's a lot to unpack
Yes, that big of a TV would be hard to unload.
wtf
@@noid900 What, your wife doesn't have a boyfriend? Get with the times you racist bigot.
I canceled my doctors appointment to watch this, hope I make it to the end.
When you need to fit four adults in comfort, with their giant heavy duffel bags in the back, while driving faster than anything else on the road. So, ultimate bank heist vehicle.
and the mechanic launders the money.
Yes, in the Netherlands where I live, the RS6 is the most used getaway car bij criminals. I am not kidding!
The insurance costs go through the roof because they get stolen for that purpose.
These cars are meant for the german autobahn offc. No problem doing 200+ for an hour (or two) in all comfort if you are travelling outside of the standard commuting hours.
I was thinking it would be the perfect Canonball Run car
@@BigfootUnibrowMan Good point. You can fold down the seats to fit a huge aux fuel tank and let the self-leveling suspension sort it out.
thedownwardmachine there would be more than enough room for a huge aux fuel tank even with the back seats up.
I know everyone is doing 10min videos, but I always prefer your longer videos.
I am with you on that. This is a great length.
After watching for years i forget that it’s usually 20+ minutes. If anything i want even more content
Mark you said you "Don't understand the wagon worship." As a dad with 2 kids that hates SUV's, this gets my pants tight. The practicality of a wagon with added car handling is the reason we love them. This is why I have a golf sportwagen 4motion with a 6 speed manual. The last one to come to the states. I'll keep it forever or until someone else releases a fun wagon under 40k. Which will be never.
I get it. Id feel the same if they had a 750HP minivan for the stupid factor.
@@savagegeese dodge hellavan is coming. Pepper your angus
Same reasons I got my BMW E61 wagon. Fits 2 kids in the back. Easy to throw a stroller or dog in the hatch. Drives like a 535i sedan. Doesn’t look like an X5.
People who have the space for multiple vehicles will never understand wagon worship. If you need one to do everything then wagon's are where its at. Mark has what, like, 3 or 4 cars?
@@bradcomis1066 I have 3 cars now. But when if I had to go back to one and had limitations on it having to do everything, that would be an impossible choice to make. I doubt Id spend 120k on one car, unless I only physically could only store one car. Id rather have some piece of trash family hauler kids could cover in boogers, be a selfish prick and get some lime green sports car to show everyone I dont need a strong hairline.
I love seeing Jack's ear to ear glee as he absolutely whips this car about
Oh he's a completely monke but it's so great. He's about my size and mentality too so I love seeing him wip around cars id enjoy
How did you comment on this 4 days ago
I've seen that a few times this last couple of days... Supposedly _DAYS-old_ comments, on _HOURS-old_ videos. Something fishy going on at 'HQ' (to beat cen'sor'ship). Defo...

“What if you were late to work” lmfao
I imagine that people who buy this new and have the cash handy to mod it too, they are not late to work, they have people there waiting on them to arrive to give out the orders.
Literally laughed my ass off at that!
Thank you for making these types of videos where you go in depth into all the egineering even though they don't generate as much views as an "emotional" video by Doug and co.
Sorry but doug ain’t emotional, he is kinda weak imho
@@111tombomb Emotional as in conveying how you feel when seeing and driving this car. You can hear it in his voice, how excited he is when he goes into all the little details of his "Quirks and Features".
@@kanonenfutter8433 sorry, he has the same voice in every video and car he does. He barely drives them. I guess it comes down to taste and preference but I rather see car being driven at a certain pace with nice cinematic shots and someone who actually knows about it rather than giving it a “ cool factor” score and all that BS. Savage Geese is one of the best if not the best technical reviewer out there. EVO, Carfection, The smoking tire, Chris Harris on Drive etc... are much better and make a lot better use of content. Doug attracts people that don’t know much about cars and dumbs it down for them to understand, that’s why he gets so many views. I guess it comes down to preference and how you like to learn information.
@@111tombomb Jake Tran made a video that proves your comment otherwise.
What's your dream car?
Other People: Lamborghini, Viper, Ferrari, etc.
Me: Station Wagon...
samee
Lamborghini Stazione Wagoni?
me too. Would take this over anything flashy like those
You people are weird.
Same. I prefer RS6 over 911 all day
I will be able to afford this when there is a 200k mile salvage title available in ten years time. Can’t wait.
it's going to come with repair bills enough to make you go bankrupt 😂
@@thatcopenguy Driveway trophy 😎
Makes a sexy lawn ornament tho
"What if you are late for work?!" I would never make to work in this car because I would be on every news channel gettin chased by cops, while laughing maniacally...
😂😂😂
Love that Tachometer edit. Grears go up Speed goes down :D
Does it maybe display remaining speed to time leap velocity?
Except at 15:58 you can see it's about to tick to 3 digits on the heads-up display. I don't know why they don't turn these off since it's hard to blurr out. :)
@@richardnavratil9661 Yeah, these edits are comical, and here especially since these two total car and video editing buffs didn't think of the HUD.
But also generally: The idea that you can always dodge accusations if you edit the video is silly. In case common sense is not enough, you can make clear mathematical deductions from RPM and gear displayed there which would hold up in a court of law if someone made the effort. And the theoretical it's-all-CGI dodge shouldn't be of much use because there is no motive for faking it subtly towards being incriminating and it also works the other way, because if they employ CGI that makes it look relatively convincing, then they could also use that CGI to edit out speeding evidence.
This makes less sense than the f-bleeping trope.
If I made videos like this and really cared about potential issues with speeding, I'd definitely put some effort into it so that it is convincing. ... And not even mock it by making it extra-obvious with that slow downcounting. - They're like: Look, we edited this to not show the real speed. - Lawyer: I wonder why. 🤔
That feeling of a heart attack bringing this thing into an Audi Service Centre.
Too right! I have a B9 A4 and I feel that way!
@@jmakhlouf422 2.0 TDI is most reliable
Having had 5 audis, a3 8v a4b9 a6c6 a6c7 a6c8 I can only say holy shit you're right. The newer these get the harder they are to actually fix even by the technicians themselves. ymmv
that's why i would never buy a german vehicle, yes there are "some" decently reliable ones out there but everyone that i know that has owned a german vehicle has nothing but issues, dont get me wrong there beautiful cars but i dont want to take out a mortgage to fix one of these. LoL
@@Alva2323 a colleague had a new Q5 that they had to fly someone over from Germany to figure it out. She had a loaner for two months of her lease. Which was good for her miles. No audis without a warranty.
The Black paint and the front end styling gives a strong Darth Vader Vibe.
That's the nickname for the blacked out RS7.
Sounds just like him too
Just never drive it in sand and it will be fine.
It only needs screaming sound of a Tie fighter
VAG and people assigning Star Wars shit to it.
Love the edit on the Speedometer keeping it at 60
You also forgot to add 💯% power 80% torque
@@frankmartinez1656 thanks fam, I'll add that to the list
15:57 The car has a HUD...
@@Xoron oh nice, good eye, didn't even see that. I keep forgetting those HUDs are a more common thing now
@@Xoron Exactly, you can see it's about to tick to 3 digits on the heads-up display. I don't know why they don't turn these off since it's hard to blurr out. :)
So glad we got a proper length film. 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
Perfect explanation..."No Compromises". Basically, your saying wagons are COOL because your not following the crowd, yet still get all the performance, practicality, German engineering and amazingly good looks. This is the most thorough RS6 Avant review on TH-cam. Thanks guys!!
German engineering is all good until you have to work on it
@@freakyfrank1549 Yep
Just something about wagons I cant warm up to
@@weirdshibainu Hence, unique. I get it, but a few trips to western Europe may set you on pre-heat. Prague is littered with high performance wagons that look awesome.
@@brimopm I don't know. I've seen the porsche wagon and the volvo wagons in the metal....just not my style.
Watching these two scare the shit out of each other never gets old.
The drama comes when something breaks!
So true. I rode in a freind's approximately 15-year-old Audi A6 wagon. It was obviously a beautiful car . . . when new. But it was a pile of expensive repairs waiting to happen at age 15.
@@arevee9429 you’re argument is a 15 year old car
Sounds like you can’t afford one
That's y u should lease it
No drama if you can afford the car you can afford the repairs...
A “refined luxury missile that looks like a hearse” - absolute gold!
dang this boat sounds rad as hell flat out at a blistering 60mph
Jack's laugh and looking like a kid is just icing on the cake. What a car, what a review channel!

Throttle House
@@ultraguy8771 throttle house is undefeated.
Chris Harris, Doug Demuro and Throttle House are all cringe.
throttle house is incredible
16:14
Amazing car. Torques, RPMs increasing, sound of engine getting louder but the car keeps steady at exactly 1+/- 60 MPH. Truly a wonderful machine.
@@ES-qe1nh Not if you put a giant pink racing stripe and 22" rims on it
@@ES-qe1nh That's going way too far, very poor taste. Hentai is disgusting
remember in Season 9 when Tony got this for Carmela just to find out that AJ had also bought himself one, and then Tony couldn't remember which trunk he'd put the body in, that was such a funny episode
Where’s the gabagool?
Jack is having the time of his life behind the wheel. Meanwhile, Mark's face says "I'm going to be sick". What a car! Thanks for the excellent review and as always I appreciate the insightful banter.
A car James Bond would be proud to drive home from the hospital after his vasectomy.
3:58 y’all just bullying the piano black in that shot 😂
Yeah, gotta wipe down with a swiffer pad every day
LOVE the mph graphic you guys show the revs INCREASE but mph DECREASE, LOL....so fast you're traveling "back" in time, LOL
"What a Fool Believes"
"This is It"
Subtle guys, very subtle. lol
A true land yacht
The leather wrapped, titanium pair of scissors (for the state trooper who is about to turn your drivers license into paper dolls) is a $795 option.
I don't care, they don't own me. I drive illegal and run from the law all thw time
Let me guess: the seven timing chains are in the trunk, upside down, between the rear steering hydraulic pumps, air suspension auxiliary compressor and rear differential mechatronics controller. But hey I don't need to worry about it because it's built to last the lease lifetime.
Ahahahahahahahah, yup, you forgot to add the requirement to fly in Hans the mechanic in order to replace the seven chains since no one in North America can do it.
Yes yes and yes. Crossovers be damned! This is what we need!
We need more wagons in general? Or wagons that cost as much as a house?
@@JustaPersonTryinToHuman365 wagons in general, they just make so much more sense than crossovers.
Gotta appreciate the behind the scenes research and planning Mark and Jack do before they even shoot (let alone all the excellent editing afterwards).
The mechanical section where they’re under car going over the technical stuff; the fact that they can absorb all this technical info and then be able to talk about it for us to consume and understand without reading from a script, while also meshing so well with each other, not just reading tech specs/numbers from a sheet is what made me notice and appreciate that effort.
Yeap. Excellent stuff.
4:58 I know it's a panning sliding shot, but looking out the windscreen feels like the car is on a turntable.
Good 👁
I’ve officially done something I’m proud of in my life and that’s being early on one of savagegeese’s videos
17:25 Shifted 6 gears flat out. Holy shit. That is 140 right there.
That's exactly what I was thinking, crazy fast
I was counting as well: 30-35 mph from that corner and then 15 seconds flat out. Wow, thats licence-pull x 2 territory in our country...
@@JJVernig I actually did the math using gear ratios, it's somewhere between 135-150mph. I wasn't sure if these were 155mph limited like in EU so I estimated on the lower side.
I'd buy this in a heartbeat "IF" I could afford it. I guess my peasant blockers will suffice in my Sienna for now.
That engine sounds amazing!The audio quality sounds fantastic in the driving portion of the video.
Finally... So happy to see you guys review my car. Thanks for the accurate, informative, entertaining, and Legal (never cracked 60 mph) review.
OK you guys started to give me an actual headache when you went into the engineering of this car. But then I actually listened to you when you started talking about how the different systems work together and I was amazed with the depth of what you were saying. Thank you very much for this review, it is far and away one of the best car reviews I have heard in years you guys have definitely got me hooked.
I love how Mark's words are interrupted at 17:36 by the power of this wagon
Looking forward to view the local farmer’s goose/jack cam fly-by compilation
Loved the technical explanation from the Shoppe on this - clear and easy to understand but also made me appreciate the engineering that went into this car, to which I otherwise would have been oblivious. Thanks
A lot of research went into this! Love these engineering details and video presentations, thank you!
Exactly what I've been waiting for a proper review of the RS6
the number of systems to control the steering reminds me of how modern fighter jet flight controls are completely controlled by computers too to approximate what the pilot is inputting. pretty dope
awesome car and review. the technical reviews you guys put out is the best part, keep it up!
The level of cinematography in this vid is just extraordinary especially for the RS6 Avant which is something very special
Can I just take a moment to appreciate the work that goes into your videos: I am not sure viewers appreciate the amount research that goes into making such a video, sourcing videos and graphics from manufacturers, editing etc, incredibly smooth, compliments.
I mostly follow European Tubers because there is more emphasis on tech and engineering vs entertainment. I appreciate that might mean a smaller audience but you guys really are the benchmark in compressing relevant information into a 20-something minute product! I love the dry nature of your videos!
@Bravo Mike ...+1 Agreed, ,, savagegeese is the Gold Standard.
What an incredible machine! Way ta go savage, keep bringin the noise!! Awesome review.
Went to England a few years back...thought I had died and went to wagon heaven. It was glorious!
This Audi Sport-Hearse is literally to die for!!!!
Jack knows Smoooooth music! Koko is proud of you from above!
Awesome car and awesome video! Love this length for these videos. 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
I go back to this video, just to watch Jack and Mark giggle during the driving segment. Pure automotive bliss... incredible machine.
17:32 best uncut take, gets my heart racing
My man ran out of breath after like 5 reps, lol. I'm kidding, you Patagonia Boys are golden 👌🏻
Your channel is the best!
Keep going

That intro got me pumped for this video 💪🏻
One wants a car like this because of the combined sense of prestige and exhilaration. That is quintessential to all German brands…!
It's great, always great. On his own, Mark sometimes used to get a little dark - always on point, but well....couldn't always watch when I was a little dark myself. Jack brings balance and allows Mark to have fun too. One of those 2+2 = 5 equations.
Jack telling us we're gonna fall asleep to the upcoming content in this video. This is what im subscribed for.
That's it! I'm done.
I was waiting for this review for a while ... and it's here!
THANKS!!!
And thanks Mancuso for this car!
Great video again guys! The total package, I need this car in my life
Yacht rock reference... y’all make me weak. 🤣
I am so fascinated by the fact that you both still have licenses :-). Great work as always. Thank you.
What makes you think they have licenses?
Ive seen many complicated cars, but this Audi is out of this world
Video Quality is great guys. Keep up the good work 👍🏽
Speedo edit was everything lol
Day 11 of asking sg for an audo rs3 review. This was good though
You'll be asking for many, many more days because it ain't gonna happen before Audi starts importing the car to the USA.
@@harryspeakup8452 what you mean? The rs3s been on sale for a while now in the states?
You and Jack have great banter...Such fun guys
Definitely the coolest intro so far. Tomorrow Island from DEX 1200 is a sick way to start the video!
One who buys these cars, is not going to be late for work. The work waits for him/her.
This is a pure example of why you guys are so underrated. Such a great job briefly explaining the very technical aspects of the car. Yet still fun to watch you guys tear it up while trying not to reveal your over the speed limit. No one does better car reviews than the Savage Geese!
one of the best car reviews ever!
I haven’t watched this yet but I already liked the video 👍🏼 Keep up the awesome reviews guys
They're only going 59 to 60mph!! @16:10 amazing! lol, some good video editing! Somehow the speedometer also disappears :D
They missed one at some point in the video.
21:50 that's a really cool shot.
Nice review guys! The speedo hanging at 59mph was pretty funny!
Really don't understand why it's so hard to get your head around fast wagons. All the practicality of a sport sedan, but with the storage capacity and versatility of an SUV. The perfect one-car solution. The real question to ask is why anyone ever buys an SUV...
I do valet and parked one of these and was like damn this is nice. Then I looked at the price...then was like damn it's not that nice!
I don't care what you say but this multi link is the best suspension in any modern car and the epitome of German engineering.
There are so few things in life as enjoyable as binge watching Savagegeese videos on a Saturday night!!
I never thought of my manual transmission 480whp E61 as a 'simple' car. Thanks guys for putting that into perspective.
This is my favorite car… IN THE WORLD
Interior impressions: Michael McDonald..lol..was Jack rockin out to "Yamo be there one more time"!?
You guys are incredible. THANK YOU!!!
Revs go up, superimposed speedo goes down...The epitome of editing - well-done boys!
As usual, watching a Savagegeese video with this kind of quality is just refreshing. Car wise, I find this vehicle very interesting, I know it’s not American muscle but it drives good in almost every condition and it’s not compromised like Jack said. The best option for somebody wanting the space of the SUV without the bulk of it.
@Jose Acuna .. Agreed. . Audi RS wagons are Uber Ski kombi in Europe. .. Make mine Stone Grey metallic...

You guys make the best reviews
What i'd love to have someone review, is exactly how much more trouble and expense there is, when something breaks on an Audi RS6, vs an AMG wagon, vs a modern volvo. do you save anything in ownership costs, with a V60 or V90, over the more expensive marques? with the twincharged T6 4cyl, i can't imagine the volvos being significantly less high strung than the bigger AMG/audi engines, relative to displacement
