Red Audi RS 6 GT Spied in Real World

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="101213"] No doubt one of the most hotly discussed and anticipated new models from Audi has to be the RS 6 GT Avant. Audi grabbed plenty of views on the car when it launched its heritage-focused striped prototype via PR channels, and just three color options on their Audi.de web configurator. However, talk of owner specified builds (at least for Europe) did come up in that launch process, so we're wondering about the potential when we see photo...

Audi RS 6 Homage to RS2 Turns up at Amsterdam Motorshow

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="99029"] The Amsterdam Motorshow is going on right now and, without it being a major market auto show, you wouldn't expect us to sit up and take notice of cars on display there. Frankly, it's the first time we've made mention of the event on this blog, but an RS 6 Avant on the stand of Netherlands-based GP Products did just that. https://www.instagram.com/p/C5L9NhPq6bF/?utm_source=ig_embed&ig_rid=c3c1d11f-3c08-4bb3-927a-056ebb3aa4d3&...

Find of the Day: Goodwood Green Audi RS 7 at Audi Norwell

[gallery link="file" columns="1" size="full" ids="97750"] There's tasteful and then there's Goodwood Green (a.k.a. really tasteful). It's hard not to love Audi's take on the iconic British Racing Green theme that's a little darker and a little more gray. This green hue dropped in the early 2000s on cars like the Mk1 TT, RS 4 B5 and RS 6 C5. It remains 20-something years later one of the more popular Audi exclusive colors, so when it pops up on a new RS 7 we sit up and take notice. [gallery lin...

Find of the Day: Nogaro Blue 2021 Audi RS 6 RS Tribute Edition (1 of 25)

[gallery columns="1" link="file" size="full" ids="97580"] As most RS 6 enthusiasts can tell you, Audi of America built just 25 RS Tribute edition RS 6 Avants back in 2021, then promptly locked out its iconic Nogaro Blue paint from future RS 6 production. That lockout stood until MY 2024 when the color was reopened, though the rareness of Audi exclusive production slots has kept many further cars from being produced at this time. It’s rare that these cars come on the market, but we w...

Find of the Day: OEM Plus Green A6 allroad on Cars & Bids (Spoiler Alert)

[gallery columns="1" size="full" link="file" ids="87556"] In the Audi lineup, the C8 A6 allroad is an unsung hero. Crossovers tend to get all the volume, but the A6 allroad takes up a special place. Its presence allowed the RS 6 to be federalized, and it's a substantive long roof in its own right, with turbocharged V6 and adjustable air suspension. And at about half the price of the RS 6, it's a veritable bargain. So is it an RS 6-light then? Well, in some specs that's a reach but in the spec o...
