Although it’s not a diesel engine with a manual transmission, this brown wagon is highly desirable.
This option is expensive at EUR2,900 ($3,400) in Germany. But, when you already pay well into six figures, how much more can you spend on it? Motor1.com Refer a friendbAuditography I had the opportunity to spend some time with the brown wagon while shooting the RS6 in Warsaw (Poland). The larger Avants look great with the Black Optic package, which costs an extra. Its unusual color is complemented by the Cognac Brown leather interior. While SUVs and crossovers are popular, we would still choose a wagon over an SUV, especially if it was a unique color like the RS6. It isn’t perfect, however, as it is a European-spec car, which means it has a soft limiter, a gasoline particulate filter, and is compliant with strict emissions regulations. This reduces the raucous sound that the twin-turbo V8 delivers through its RS-specific oval exhaust tips. The super wagon was in stock at the time we filmed, but its owner told us that he has given it a stage 1 tune. The 4.0-liter engine produces 728 horsepower and 981 Newton meters (724 pound-feet), of torque. This is a significant increase over the stock RS6 (591 hp / 590 lbft) and should result in supercar acceleration.
We have yet see the Mercedes AMG E63 Wagon, its archrival, in special colors. And we are certain that fans of high-performance wagons would be thrilled to see a BMW M5 Touring in an Individual color. Audi will sell the RS6 in a variety of wild colors including Goodwood Green and Coral Orange as well as Citrus Yellow and Camouflage Green.
