Audi is offering two new limited-edition equipment packages for its RS6 super-sedan and Avant wagon that will be restricted to just 500 units to reflect their exclusivity. The two packages are the "RS6 Sport" and "RS6 Audi Exclusive," both of which come with a special carbon design package for the engine compartment, 20 inch wheels and a specially-tuned suspension kit.
The Sport version also features a dash and center console covered in leather and floor mats embossed with the RS6 logo. Concerning the Audi Exclusive package, customers can also specify a custom paint job as well as leather trim for the seat upholstery, controls, door trim inserts and armrests. Premium carbon fiber, aluminum, leather, and Alcantara also adorn much of the cabin.
Otherwise, the cars are largely normal--if you can call the RS6 normal--and come powered by a 5.0-liter V-10 FSI engine with direct-injection and twin-turbochargers boosting output to 580 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque. Not surprisingly, the five-seater offers the performance of a supercar, with 0-62 mph sprints in just 4.5 seconds and a top speed of 181 mph.
Sadly, the Audi RS6 Sport and RS6 Audi Exclusive packages remain strictly for the European market, but we can still dream.
