It would be hard to choose that over an Avant though.

If Audi finds a way to bring the RS6 Avant over here, I. Will. Find. A. Way. To. Buy/Lease. It. Period.



Of course, that'll never happen. Dumb Americans and their unnatural SUV love.

0-60 in about 3.7 seconds and 190mph with the Performance package.

137,000 Euros in Holland with VAT and carbon taxes. It is absolutely a 1% car but if I ever became really wealthy and lived in Europe, this is what I'd get.

I think you'd have to pay to have it homologated here ... If you didn't mind buying at least two and having one crash tested, etc ... Because of the grey market laws that Mercedes lobbied for we can't bring over cars newer than 25 years old even if they meet US crash and safety specs.

My hope is that the negotiations to have a unified US/Europe standard for safety and emissions gives us the chance to see more of these cars here soon.

Here's the RS6 video review that goes along with the 0-315 kph video above.

Ohmagawd part 2.
The presenter Wouter Karssen, sounds fracking funny in the video (English subtitles available), but this video only reminds me that car geeks all over the planet are similar!
