No shit! I saw this thread awhile back, and despite being a 4.2, It has to be the most tastefully done A6 that I've ever seen. The wheel fitment is spot on, this car makes me drool.

Door blades look like crap.

Kinda made sense to me on a 4.2.

But I also think babies with tattoos on their hands look just plain ridiculous.

Only thing I can say is a touch too low and needs to get rid of the RNS-D & get a RNS-E.

I think it looks good, but with all that work to make it look RS6-like, that original door trim just spoils the effort IMO.

No, but I was the OP.

I guess you didn't get that my tongue was in my cheek when I called your ridiculous avatar ridiculous.

Please post your best looking C5 ever so I can point out which part of it isn't to my taste.

I think it was a 'spec' ad, SAF...

Regardless, somebody post up their fave C5 other than this one.
Not to be critiqued, but to celebrate the form.

For those too lazy to click, here's a shot of the OP car.

350th post. Woot. It's all downhill from there. ;)

I don't think the door blades look like crap at all, but, I have to agree with SAF that RS 6 rocker panels would have been a little better (IMHO). But nicely done overall. :cheers:

IMHO, the door blades add character, lets you know it's not THE Beast but a beast in it's own right.

The guy did not put RS6 emblems on the car.

For that fact. I give him thumbs up. He is not a poser but wanted a particular look. A very good job of it.

He's running "stretched" tires... the edge of the rim is outside the fender, but the 265mm tire is pulled back a bit from the 10" rim, so it just barely clears the fender.
