Holy mula, that's one helluva car :D It was the station car, looks pretty similar to the RS4.

Ahh yes, the biturbo-powered station wagon. As an American, which would you prefer? A BMW X5 4.6is or an Audi RS6 wagon?

I think there are also RS6 wagons AFAIK. Maybe it was a RS4 with a RS6 sticker on it, is it then considered rice? ;)

RS6 no doubt. Faster, more cargo room, more people room, handles better, faster, probably better gas mileage, and it looks 10x better as well.

I mean, who gives a flip about a poser X5 when you can have a barn burning RS6 Wagon :D

RS6 or X5?

well, for PURE LOOKS, (meaning putting reputation and mechanical attribute aside) I will definitely go with the SUV X5. Station is just not my thing.


but, knowing RS6 is a hp beast, i will gladly pick it over any X5. (even if BMW drop the M5 engine to it)


on the other hand, a RS6 vs 5series Wagon vs MB E Wagon would be a better comparison.

1) The X5 look ok, but it's "looks" inhibit any actual usefulness inherent to an SUV (like passenger/cargo room).

2) I don't think that NE1 would look down on you for having a badass station wagon like the RS6 or RS4. Hell, I'd take either one of those over ANY SUV except for the Touareg with the TDI V10 :)

3) The RS6 vs the 5 wagon and the E wagon would NOT be fare. The RS6 would would *&$@ each of those in the a$$ and not even have the god damned common courtesy to give them a reach around :p

Guess what movie that's from :)

that's why I said for PURE LOOKS.

yeah, but what if the RS6 doesn't have the V8 with twin-turbo, 450hp and superb handling capability? I much rather take the S4 sedan.
well, the point I want to make is, Audi alone MADE Station Wagon looks good and sexy. I can't really say that i like any other station wagon... Legacy Outback? looks so so. IS300 wagon? looks odd and too expensive. 3 series Wagon? i will take a ci thank you very much. and E class wagon is just soccer mum look. unless they make the E55 Supercharge AMG wagon.... :)


3) The RS6 vs the 5 wagon and the E wagon would NOT be fare. The RS6 would would *&$@ each of those in the a$$ and not even have the god damned common courtesy to give them a reach around :p

oh, forgot to emphasize the comparison is just by looks. or, A6 Avant vs 5 Wagon v E Wagon.

Saw today again a RS6. It sneaked up behind me and "vrooooooooooooooooooom", I put the pedal-to-the-metal but guess what, my Toyota Carina 126hp old-granny-car was a snail.
