Is fast, but not fast enough.
Audi RS6 Avant driver reportedly caught going 133 MPH with nearly 2,000 pounds of pot
If you read publications about cars long enough, you’ll no doubt catch on to our pro-wagon bias. In fact, if us auto-journo types ran things, SUVs, CUVs and sedans would be banned, and all passenger cars would either be mid-engined, 500 horsepower coupes or 600 hp wagons. With manuals and roll up windows. No, really. This is the type of thinking required to join our vaunted profession. However, one of the many reasons we want mega-burly wagons isn’t to haul one ton of dope around.
Seems that a twin-turbo, Lambo-V10 engined Audi RS6 Avant (good for at least 580 hp) was busted outside of Seville, Spain for not only going 133 mph, but for carrying 2,000 pounds of pot. Twenty-seven bundles of hashish to be specific. Value? €120,000, or about $180,000 USD. That’s a lot of grass, man . And probably about one thousand pounds more than a RS6 sedan could have carried. Er… umm… we mean… “Bad RS6 Avant, bad!”
What police chase??? It’s an Audi, you would be stupid to try to outrun the police in an VW product… the chances are you would get up to top speed then your check engine light would come on, the engine would stop, as you apply the brakes to slow down your master cylinder springs a leak, you apply the hand break but then the cable snaps, you finally manage to stop by going into a field, you try to get out of the car to run but your doors locks break and you can’t get out, you try to break the window with your legs but the air bags all deploy and at the same time the car catches on fire while a bunch of police man stand around getting high off the smoke caused by the burning hash that is now burning in the car with you!
never mind it said he got caught; i just thought it was a police chase becasue he was going 133mph. why would he go that fast if the cops aren’t chasin, you would be attracting unnecssary attention with all that weed??
