Well this is a pretty low riding station wagon I mean just look at how low its sitting!
Now I am gonna start giveing the cars my score. 1 is real bad 10 is Excellent. ( P.S. Anyone can give the cars their score if they desire. So my score for this is a 4.6




(from Audi Press Release) quattro GmbH is now launching an ultimate sports version of the RS 6 developing 353 kW (480 bhp). The RS 6 plus is equipped with features echoing the world of motor sport and comes with new colour concepts.

With an output of 480 bhp, the RS 6 plus generates 30 bhp more than the standard Audi RS 6 version. The peak torque of 560 Nm is achieved across a range that now extends from 1950 rpm all the way up to 6000 rpm – in other words, the engine speed range across which this enormous traction is now available has been increased by a further 400 rpm.

The secret to this optimised performance is a new engine control unit. In order to maintain stable thermal conditions in the light of its uprated performance, the technical specialists from quattro GmbH have positioned two additional radiators behind the intercoolers.

The road performance is unequalled by any other model in the field of competitors: a mere 4.6 seconds elapse for the standard discipline of sprinting from 0 to 100 km/h. The Audi RS 6 plus hits 200 km/h in just 17.3 seconds.

Technology for the sports driver

The DRC suspension has already created a sensation on the Audi RS 6. DRC (Dynamic Ride Control) involves diagonally linked dampers with a central valve that reduces the rolling and pitching movements of the vehicle body by means of the damper characteristic, without the use of electronics.

Further specific features now underscore the professionalism and sports character of the Audi RS 6 plus.

The Audi RS 6 plus has perforated brake discs; these are visible between the five arms of the larger 19-inch cast aluminium wheels.

Buyers of the RS 6 plus can in addition order sports suspension plus, at no extra charge. With variable damping, firmer spring/damper settings and a body 10 mm lower than the RS 6, its road behaviour and responsiveness are even more active and sporty.

A counterpressure-optimised sports exhaust system with matt black, oval tailpipes acts as a forceful mouthpiece for the lusty sound of the eight-cylinder engine.

The trim strips and roof rails, likewise in matt black, outwardly visually underline its enhanced sportiness.

Inside this car, aluminium pedals signal the special sports emphasis of the Audi RS 6 plus.

More equipment, more individuality

The new equipment concept is a major plus point. The Audi RS 6 plus has black natural leather seats and carbon fibre trim strips as standard. Customers can choose between all standard exterior colours of the RS 6 – or between the Blue, Silver and Black/Cognac packages that are available at no extra charge.

The Blue equipment package comprises the special colour Sprint Blue, pearl effect, for the body; the seats are in black leather with silver-coloured Alcantara centre sections. The blue threads in the carbon fibre inserts echo the body colour.

The Audi RS 6 plus with Silver package has the special body colour Silver, metallic, and the black leather seats contrast subtly with the Alcantara centre sections, which are also black. The matt brushed aluminium trim inserts provide a note of contrast here.

The Black/Cognac equipment package looks particularly stylish. The exclusive body colour of Ebony Black, pearl effect, harmonises perfectly with the trim strips in black piano finish. Cognac-coloured leather seats with black piping accentuate the interior.

Even the vehicle identification number emphasises the fact that the Audi RS 6 plus is something utterly special. Its last three digits are reproduced on a plaque inside the car, displayed on the centre console. No more than 999 of this version will be built.

The Audi RS 6 plus can be ordered now, exclusively with Avant body, for delivery from the end of April. The recommended retail price inclusive of VAT is 101,050 euros.

:lol: Its a twin turbo! Damn I need to read these reviews carefully then Well the I guess I give it a 7.8/10
 
Why would just the turbo merit a higher score? Personally, I'd score it higher if it was N/A rather than turbo and had that much power

I dont know why but a super charger would be probably be nice on this car.
 
Ok pimp racer, you go from 4.6 to 7.8. How the hell do you come up with these ratings? Just curious.

Incidentally, evo magazine gave the car 5 stars(the best rating):

"The punch available at autobahn speeds is in a different league, especially above 130mph where the merely very quick cars are separated from the bonkers-quick variety. Push the throttle at an indicated 150mph and despite the chunky kerb weight of 1865kg the RS6 actually kicks down a gear and punches for the horizon with serious determination."*taken from evo 069

Yep, this car is in supercar league.

Personally, I love this car. I think it looks amazing. Audi started the whole turbo charged quattro avants way back with the 200 in the 80's. This spawned all the S and RS models S4;S6;RS2;RS4;RS6 etc. It also made way for all your crazy bonkers mitsi and scobbie jobbies. Respect where it's due.

The RS6 has phenomenal performance and exclusivity since only 999 are being built. Considering the size of the car, it's quite a shifter. And faster than some Ferrari's and the like. Plus you can do 175mph with a fridge in the boot!

As you can probably tell I like Audis and would do anything for a car like this. In terms of a rating, well i'm talking a 9+!

BTW, there are people who tune these monsters. Back in evo 058 the magazine tested the MTM Audi RS6. They upgraded the avant to 536bhp @ 5880rpm with a max torque figure of 531lb ft @ 3160rpm. Top speed was 195mph with a 0-60mph time of 4.1 seconds. Amazing! Here's a pic:
