[AndyBG]

Sedan..., finally !

Great !!!

[Aronis]

oh. My. God.

LOL.

Nice car.

Next life

[MrBucket]

oh man that is amazing looking

[Carl Lassiter]

Good find, thanks for posting.

The sedan looks great. I see they've used a regular A6 grille and badging to try and disguise it but no mistaking it with the extra air intakes for the brakes.

Best angle is the rear. The twin oval pipes are classic RS while it's great to see such a purposeful rear diffuser. The one flaw with the B7 RS4 is its fake diffuser but this one is certainly functional. Thumbs up from an ///M5 owner. You just can't beat supersedans, though I'm sure F-car and Lambo owners aren't too happy with us.:hahahehe:

[Ruergard]

damn you're fast ^^...

:jlol: :hihi: :jlol:

I really, really like the looks of this... might it even be better than the avant? :bigeyes:

[RS6Driver]

That is one hell of a car. Actually looks better than the Avant.

Rear 3/4 view is amazing:

Black looks stunning with this car. It looks very aggressive with the reflections showing from the bulging fenders.

[Georgious86]

oooooooooo.it's amazing finally AUDI RS6 SEDAN IN B L A C K!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I can't wait for video of sedan & i hope to see avant in black soon:addict:
Schnella audi schnella.................

[Tony Lam]

the car looks so nice :thumb: .....but if the fender is even wider like RS4 i think it will look more sporty. Would be even cooler.

this is what i've always been talking that black color for audi is the best it makes sport cars more attractive and aggresivly,but some members've told that it hides it's body and doesn't look well.just look at this...:addict:

[Mockenrue]

Lovely, just the ticket. I can't wait to see the production version. :heart:

It does make me laugh when they use an S-line grille. Great disguise as long as you don't look at the wheels, brakes, mirrors, bodywork, bumpers, exhaust or seats! :applause:

I think black does hide some of the curves - eg, if you look at the 5th picture (rear 3/4 view from the left side of the car) the rear wheelarch disappears...

[Bingocaller]

I must say that it dosnt do it for me - I was hoping for something a bit more aggressive - maybe if it were another colour it would do it?.

The rear looks amazing though - loving the diffuser - and the top bonnet reminds me a bit of the E AMG with that rear spoiler.

[Duma]

:applause: :applause: :applause:

that look very good !

[Leadfoot]

I am a bit confused at the moment when I look at these photos, from what I was told the RS6 saloon would be gaining a new rear. Unless I am missing something there is nothing here which looks much different apart from the rear bumper which would be different on the RS model in any case. I expected new lights or something.

Hopefully this isn't the finished article as I expected a change, that's all.

Sorry for my grumpiness, PMT. :vgrumpy: Yeah, men do get it according to my wife.

[ZCD2.7T]

Yes, you are grumpy today! ;-)

Also, you may indeed be missing something: The decklid clearly has an integrated spoiler, similar to the RS4. I'm not aware of that being present on any previous C6.

Finally, at least the RS6 has SOME unique bodywork (the fenders and quarter-panels), unlike the M5 and E63, which have only rear bumpers and modified fascia to set them apart. I really like the understated-yet-aggressive look, myself.

[Damienr8]

I like the diffusers between the exhausts. Very nice!!!

[ZeroCool]

@Leadie....

Yeah, you're right, in another Thread i posted spy-pics from the facelifted A6 Sedan, it had the LED's in the headlights (which this RS6 also don't have) and other rear-lights which are the same that A4 and A5 have...

So i think that's one of the first RS6 Sedan's which were tested (without the facelift)

[HKS786]

I noticed the bootlid right away from older spypics, I love it. Look here:

I like it, but I like the avant better. The rear view just does it for me in avant format.

What says the prizetag for new RS6 in Sweden?

[Ruergard]

What says the prizetag for new RS6 in Sweden?

Starting price is just below 1.1 million swedish...

[Myrtlebeach]

If anyone was wondering, pricetag in norway is about 2,2 million norwegian, 410 000 USD, 280 000 EURO...

Awsome car, well done AUDI. My E63 Mercedes will soon get a boyfreind:addict:

Black hides a LOT on cars. It hides a lot of the bodywork lines and details, bumpers etc. I prefer silvers, greys, blues and even deep red. Here's some chops I made a few weeks ago in Sepang Blue:

[i_am_Waz]

I agree with Leadie that this can't be the finished product as I see several differences from what the avant has (and what we were told) and these spy photos. For example the LED lights in the avant and not in these photos. The steering wheel (not squared at the bottom) ... probably very close to the finished product but....

Did anyone else watch this video from Audifan 92? http://youtube.com/watch?v=3f6EKUJxnFA

Do these look like RS6's or 8's? Sure sounds nice and looks a lot bigger then I thought it would. Lines on the first one (Blue? Black?) show nice definition.

I think I am getting excited!

Is it just me, or do buffalo wings taste like chicken?

[DuckWingDuck]

Is it just me or doesn't the rear really look like the E55 (moreso than the E63)?

[Georgious86]

yes.maybe you're right in what you've told,but i think exterior in general is more important.i've never noticed silver rs4 more aggresivly or attractivly than black,the same is with old rs6,black with silver mirrors with black windows....:addict:

[LOWR1D3R]

Ridicilous prizing for RS6 in Norway. I heard that you get E60 M5 less than 150k€ in Sweden and it´s way over 200k€ in Norway.
RS6 is around 200k€ in Finland when it hit dealers. I wish we didn´t have this stupid tax system around here!!

IMO RS6 looks way better in Avant. Like Leadfoot said, sedan´s rear is missing something.

me too ..... :thumb:

[bober3]

look better than the avant ( more sporty)

[PeterJohn]

In real life, the rear view of regular A6 sedan already looks very muscular, even though pictures don't make it look that way. The RS6 sedan will have quite a presence on the road.

[Boosted-Bora]

after seeing that vid posted by waz im certain that if the saloon comes to the states I will get one in Avus silver:rs6kiss:

[buzz]

I think the car will look much better in lighter colors, all the curves will show. Silver or White. The brochure of the avant shows it in silver. very very nice.

buzz, what's the color of the interior of your E63? is it beige? any pics?

Hi Tony, Interior is Pastel Yellow, Exterior is Mocha Black by Designo. The interior trim has changed now to all Carbon by AMG as I didn't like the wood trim.

I'm not a fan of wood trim myself. Nice E63 btw, looks great.

[Tony Lam]

Buzz, your combination is really exclusive:thumb: ......i haven't had the chance to see these colors before, or even heard of them here. I just ordered a C63, Tenorite Grey outside, Nappa Leather Black/Sahara Beige inside. I hope it will come out nice.

[blue_r]

i just noticed it today... why the new RS6 doesn't have foglamps..??? it's my dream sedan anyways...

That should look pretty nice, I' m ordering one soon for my eldest son, White outside, titanium wheels, black/red inside. Post some pics when you get it at the AMG forum, I will post some too.

Like the M5, fog lamps are deleted for extra cooling. The big +500bhp crew need their air.

As regards color, black is the best imo. However, the chrome around the window has got to go as it detracts from the sportiness no end.

Buzz- can you please post daytime pics so I can see the color? Also, pics now the interior has carbon.

Actually, I believe the fog lights are in the headlight casing as they are in the S6.

[Carl Lassiter]

True. I meant to say that they deleted them from the lower grille so they could maximize the space for air inlets.

[tvrfan]

i think thats not the final RS6 saloon. just a testmule. the finish RS6 saloon will be RS6 facelift too. i mean other back.
