Does anyone know anything about the up and coming new S6 and RS6 models?

This is just a rumor, but I heard the Lambo V-10 will be used in one or the other.

I read it somewhere that the V-10 was going to be in the RS6.

In both the S and RS, supposedly. One more "de-tuned" than the other.

FTA: What appears to be a rabid RS 6 foaming at the wheel arches is actually a rough plaster mock-up made to simulate the actual dimensions of the widened fenders. The plaster also serves as a "band-aid" to cover up the exposed edges of the original A6 fender arches that were sawed off to prevent the over sized wheels from rubbing on the inside. Yes, the final version (if produced) will look a little cleaner but it's not "appearance" the Audi engineers are testing but rather suspension/chassis dynamics. Like the recently announced Audi S8 the new RS 6 will receive a V10 engine producing upwards of 600hp and that's not the only thing going upwards. So far price projections put the RS 6 significantly higher than the competition.

eh, looks boring. I want something more in your face. Can't expect that from the S, but hopefully the RS will be more of a raw design.

I was up at the dealership today and I saw 2 or 3 RS6's and they are HOT. Wow. I wish they made them with a manual tranny though.

umm i dont think that orange car is the production version or even close...
read the post.
they're testing handling and other aspects of the car, not looks... that's done last.
you'd think for a group of audi guys, you'd have more trust in your fellow company to produce an aggressive car...

oh, and now that I cant get in trouble for it, I know because testing Euro-spec software for the VAG 5052 scan tool had a listing for a "5.0L Petrol" engine under options for the new A6, not to mention higher-ups in the company were talking about it at gatherings...
[:D] Bet AoA loves me now....

what ever the engine is it'll be too much for my blood. RS6 will probably 15-20k more the the BMW M5
