Yeah the wheels are a little small. Still a good looking wagon.

Yeah, it's got 18's which is fine because it has a higher sidewall making for a more comfortable ride. Also, if I want to rip around I hop in my 350 or 650 so the 530 is definitely not my low altitude flyer.

I guess the picture was deceiving. they definitely dont look like they are 18s in the picture.

Yeah they look like 16s almost. Must just be the fact the wheel arches are so big.

I'm not in love with the Golf R nor the CLA SB, but wouldn't 'kick them out of bed for eating crackers'.

18's were stock and given the size of the pot holes around here, I stayed with them for a higher sidewall

If not because of Audi's horrible lease program, i think more people would be interested in the RS7 compared to M5 and M6.

I'd definitely consider Audi-if the sole dealer around here wasn't such a douche.

The RS7 is an amazing car. My dad got his back in October. I would love to have a wagon with the same engine.

yes it is.
I would take RS7 over any of its current competitors in the US in a heart beat, if the lease payment is not 1.5 times more.

There was an all black RS7 (tinted windows, black wheels, trim) here in Siesta Key at our condo parking lot one afternoon. BAD ASS! No pics sorry.

^ I'd have an E63 Estate over the C63 Shooting Brake.
Not available in the US, but I'd have the new C63 Estate over both.

New E-Class Estate
Standard Trim:
Standard & AMG Package:
Not too sure on the super light 2-tone interior. But it's not bad:

I think this car would look so hot with a slight drop and a set of wheels!

The new regular estate one doesn't really do anything for me. The AMG one and the red and black interior are perfect.
The Barabus is just insane but that is expected.
The wheels on the Gullwing America one look more old muscle car style to me. I wonder how they would look on my Vagon?
