    New A6 Avant

    Didn't see a thread already started on the new Avant. To me, extremely good looking, especially in S line! LOTS of high resolution pics. BTW, the 2.0TDI is showing a curb weight of just 3600lbs, and while I doubt that is quattro, still! That is in 01' B5 S4 territory!

    We have got our answer to whether the latest S-Tronic can handle more torque ................... not at the moment it appears. Otherwise the new bi-turbo 3.0TDI wouldn't have needed to switch over to the trusty 8 speed ZF automatic.

    Shame.

    Absolutely fantastic looking car. Bravo, Audi. This is just a perfect start-point for the next S6 and RS6. Such clean, elegant lines. This has to be one of the best-looking cars in production and without doubt the best looking estate/ wagon.

    Joker, let's hope the S6 arrives soon and that a reinforced S-Tronic gearbox is ready soon enough to be mated to the 4.0-litre V8 engine. The S6 is going to sell like hot cakes.

    I like everything but that the S-Tronic hasn't beefed up yet, otherwise a BIG thumbs up to Audi. This one great looking car...

    Because they don't deserve it!
    They should be happy to have the A7 at least...

    I was under the impression that Americans didn't like wagons, that seems to be true for not only Audi but for BMW too.

    WOW, that is one handsome wagon. I'd love to get my hands on White + S-Line!
