Spy Photos: Audi S6 Based Mule

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="70371"] What is Audi cooking with this Audi S6? When we first saw this Audi S6, we reacted on the sound it made. It was very loud but didn’t look that different when it was coming towards us. But then when we saw the back of it, the more central mounted exhaust pipes really made us understand why it was so loud. [gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="70385"] As we can see, the pipes look very provisional and there is also a strange b...

[gallery link="none" columns="1" size="full" ids="68956"] words: Bill, photos: Chris Mangold What is it about wagons that have gripped enthusiasts but not the general auto-buying population? Perhaps it's due to  very lackluster wagons out there and the stigma of a mom-bus that soured prospective buyers but some companies fought back including Audi. Stuffing V8s into wagons has been around for years but Audi seem to have hit the sweet spot with the C5 S6 Avant. That fabulous 4.2 growl and ta...
