k out of my way'Ive fell in love with the RS6 ever since I was a passenger in the first RS6's.
They have immense power but the current one has left me abit cold it looks too heavy, but this one has just got it back to the groove on things!
The New RS4 and the RS6 are great lookers definately on my lotto win

It seems so stupid that Audi have culled the saloons from the RS lineup. They look so much better than the Avants. Not everyone has a dog, a pram and a dribbling toddler to cart round!
Mind you, this just looks ghastly full stop. Another hideously overstyled piece of tat from Ingolstadt. They need to have a word with the designer here. Audi's design language seems to have moved over-blinged, 'look at me' rubbish in the past few years. Compare this piece of guff to the older RS6 to see what I mean.

I LOVE that the new RS4 and RS6 are only available in estate form.

Don't like the 'Quattro' bit on the grill - seems a bit naff. And why does a car with 515lb ft of torque need 8 gears?
Apart from that, looks great - although I really don't like those flared wheels arches - they're just waaay over the top.....
Did the C6 have bulging arches? Must have been subtle if they were?
Starting to look more and more like Darth Vaders helmet from the front which isn't a good thing to me.
Like the engine tech but 30% increased efficiency on the old one is hardly unexpected when it has lost roughly 20% of its capacity and cylinder count. So should scrape into the 20's now?
The interior looks a nice place to be though

Eh? For people that dont want an RS4 avant there is the RS5, and for those that dont want the RS6 avant there will be an RS7 coming later.Besides, fast Avants have always been Audis "thing". It seems quite apt to me that the M5 is (currently?) saloon only and the RS6 will be avant only.

Most people do though and looking at the target market for this type of car, there's no point in offering a less practical version. Oh and Audi have obviously though that a saloon version would effect RS7 (and RS5) sales, which it would as an RS6 saloon would be cheaper.It will even be easier to sell when used as it will appeal to more people.
Do you want any more reasons?!
