Looks awesome - I saw a similar color A7 on the way to work this morning and was thinking it looked pretty sweet.
Needs moar low though. [:)]

The color really pops in person, even more so in sunlight.

No such thing as an ugly RS7
The way I see it, a fella buys an RS7, he can paint that facker what ever color he wants. Still the baddest thing rolling the streets

Way to be you! I like it.
I was just at the dealer and was checking out the S5 withe those wheels, best factory wheel i've seen.
Now go drive the crap out of it before the weather hits and you have to look at it in the garage for the next week.

Are those oem version of audi wheels or are they Hartmann? If OEM, are they the same specs as s8? Great winter setup with those 20's, great color!

They are Hartmanns from Achtuning. Most people think they are oem. They look great.

love the color. I think it would look even better with some concave 20's. a set of HREs would do you well

Guys I have a question. When I opened my hood to look at that gorgeous engine I saw that the frame was signed in a silver pen. Is the typical for RS's?

Are you running spacers with those wheels? Achtuning tells me the Hartmann Ti-reps won't clear the brakes on my A6, which I imagine are smaller than the calipers on a RS7.

Got a pic? I'll look in mine. I haven't noticed it....

+1. One of the wheels I am considering. The other is the S6 20" OEM.

I'm not running spacers. The wheels have a 29et. They work fine and clear the brakes. Nice aggressive look but not pushed out to much.

Looks amazing! You got the carbon pack yeah? Does it not get the quattro cutout on the lower grille like the RS6 does? Or is it a separate pack?

With front plate holder = no "quattro" insignia in the grille.
Without front plate = "quattro" insignia in the grille.
I'm not sure if Audi mandates that states that require a front plate use the appropriate grille. The U.S.-sized front plate holder blocks out the "quattro" insignia, which is why it isn't included when you need to mount a front plate to the car.
When I purchased my RS6 grille, I had the option for either the standard grille or the one with the "quattro" insignia. I chose the standard grille as I will be running a front plate with the Audi plate holder.

Makes sense now. Although as a no plate law dodger I have to implore you to reconsider and get the quattro grille! So sessy. Amazing either way. [up]
