It is probably the only YELLOW RS6 in the US or anywhere for that matter. Carbon Fiber trim was an option on the RS6. My guess is that 60-80% of the RS6's that I have seen have the carbon fiber trim option.

I don't think I've ever seen one without the carbon fiber? What else is there to choose from? Wooden?

[Scott-man]

Yea, you are probably right. It may be more like 90% of the RS6's that come with carbon fiber. Although most people prefer it, I really did not like the carbon fiber. It was pretty difficult to find a RS6 without it when I purchased mine.

Mine has the standard gray poplar wood like a regular A6. Europe was originally going to have aluminum and black piano wood as options but I can't recall ever hearing about anyone getting either.

No it is not the only one. Check this one out...

Personally, I much prefer the carbon fiber interior to the poplar.

The RS6 on ebay is almost up to $75,000 with 30 bids. That's good news for resale.

Yes indeed. I think all this talk from others about poor resale originally started from BMW spies!:D It's all propaganda to make us convert!:D

Sturs,

That yellow with the yellow wheels is in Sth Florida. I've seen it a couple of times. It might be one of the ugliest cars I have seen. Yellow does not look right on the saloon (better on the estate car). The yellow wheels are train wreck.

I think Champion Motorspots did the wheels ... sorry but someone had a brain fart on that one.

i'll agree to that.. IMHO, the louder colors do look much better on the estate:cool2:

its the window tinitng that gives it even more of that sport look.
like the red rs6 avant in one of the gumball videos.
