The front and side styling looks amazing. Not sold on the rear with that new rear bumper detail. Perhaps it will look better in the flesh. Not sure that would convince me to trade out of a Facelift/Performance Edition C7 RS6.

waaaay overstyled !

too many creases, accent lines, etc.

the rear defuser is pure awful

not fan of the gameboy digital instruments or that horrendous gearshifter.

and rear wheel steer ?

::)

the 2017 looks much better inside and out.

carfection takes a more detailed look

Nah you guys are haters lol.

I'm loving the exterior and interior. Finally the RS6 has a super aggressive look that let's you know this thing competes with Lambo's and not your dad's old hsv commodore station wagon.

And that interior, looks like a F35 fighter jet cockpit

Here is the start up sound

Only downside is these ridiculous Euro6/7 emissions standards. The car is programmed not to rev over 3000rpm at standstill, even if you have it in neutral for emissions purposes and is fitted with a exhaust sound destroying OPF filter

It's the same reason, the new 2020 Mercedes A45 AMG sounds like you mum's vacuum cleaner

Well, it is if you?re an Audi fan. Not that I?m opposed to Audis or I wouldn?t be here. But at 6 minutes long I can only imagine that being shown in cinemas. Personally, I prefer the golf GTI ad where the father and son buy a GTI from a little old lady.

Would get the ~non ascent option (like my current rs6 has), where there is no ascent silver highlights. This will tone the bum down.

That ad is an all time classic. Still, this RS6 ad gave me goose bumps.

Great to see an alternative. That model in Nardo Grey with a black out package is going to look incredible. Maybe, just maybe I may get another RS6!

Yeah, a good review

UK boys are upset by the UK packaged options and a inability to spec to what you want
We don?t have that issue.

Next year I think
