Seen Through Glass embarks on a journey to the Netherlands to pick up parts for his Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale, but along the way, he gets behind the wheel of the eye-catching RS6 GT. This beast of a car may look wild, but upon closer inspection, it feels remarkably similar to the RS6 Performance. Despite some unique visual elements like carbon fiber components and a bold livery, the RS6 GT's main standout feature is its manually adjustable coilover suspension. It's like wearing a flashy suit but feeling like you're still in your trusty old jeans.
After a pit stop at Sticky Works to collect repaired sticky buttons for his Challenge Stradale, Seen Through Glass reflects on his past ownership of an RS6 and the sheer joy of driving a V8 engine. The restoration process involves stripping back parts to bare plastic, repainting, and laser-attaching details for that factory-fresh look. Despite his impatience for the Challenge Stradale restoration, he seizes the opportunity to put the RS6 GT through its paces, questioning its usability as a family daily due to its weight and aggressive appearance. It's like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole - a bit of a tight squeeze.
In the rainy UK weather, Seen Through Glass tests the RS6 GT's performance, marveling at its power delivery and handling even in challenging road conditions. The ceramic brakes perform like a dream, showcasing their prowess when pushed to the limit. However, he raises a valid point about the steep price difference between the RS6 Performance and the RS6 GT, hinting that the extra cost may not necessarily translate to significant mechanical improvements. Despite initial skepticism, Seen Through Glass finds himself won over by the RS6 GT's fun and enjoyable driving experience, though he ultimately advises opting for the more practical RS6 Performance and adding personal touches for a customized feel.
