Pics: Early RS6 or Bentley? Spypic investigation

[Erik]

Is this a spypic of a early RS6? The hood seems to hide something big in any case...



This seems to be the real thing however

[Erik]

And can anyone tell me what this is?


allRSoad?
A6 Coupé? (look at the doors)
RS6 SUV?
New A6 with heavy disguise?

I think that it´s a Bentley Coupe under there. It looks like some sort of Bentley-wheels and they are very big.

they do look like bentley wheels but that would be a might impressive effort to fit the 12 cylinder engine that bentley has started using into the A6 body...

... ah, but I remember reading an interview with the head of bentley continental gt design team - their two choice of engines were the 12 cylinder or the twin turbo V8 from the RS6... so maybe that's what this is, preliminary testing for the RS6 engine into the C-GT (which was later rejected by Bentley, for marketing purposes mostly... they wanted to say they had a 12 cylinder

I have my conclusion clear
Did a little Photoshopping and made the black rims a little bit more visible.

Maybe this one is better.
