I believe the slight upper "lip" on the trunk is the spoiler. Oh yes, awesome car with an awesome price.

Nope...the best sleeper would be the avant (wagon) version of this car. Imagine blowing the doors off a corvette with a kiddie seat in the back and a load of groceries.

Man NFS4, you've got some original titles.

You come up with that all by yourself?

 

[StageLeft]

Excellent, Smithers.

 

[sohcrates]

Yes, the RS6 is going to be incredible

But, as far as styling, it kinda shows that the A6 design is getting outdated.....

Still, any car that you can get optional 19 inch rims on from the factor is pretty sweet.

Audi had hoped to make this an M5 killer...but if the new M5 gets a v-10, i think it's gonna make the race that much closer

That is some damn serious M5 competition, and about the right price point too.

that car looks sweet, but i would stil take a M5 over it any day.

I beleive the latest Topgear Mag (july 2002) or was it the month earlier had a review on teh RS6..

they gave it some good reviews on it.. mind you it no longer understeers at high speed like its brother the RS4.

I will try and find teh video of that RS6 test drive by TG

 

[yakko]

I want a few.

 

[Don Vito Corleone]

I wish Audi would make their super high-performance cars with real manual transmissions rather than manumatics. Otherwise this thing looks incredible.

Translation: It's needs a Nissan badge on it

If they let me have a year with that car I'd seriously consider vital organs too.

Does the Bugatti have a back seat? Can it haul the little ones home from soccer practice, or the groceries home from a day of shopping?

When you get your first million dollars, I say forget the Bugatti, and instead buy yourself a clue.
