I put the Avant version because around Europe it is for sure much more common..

And I put it a strong cool! it's a bit easy to say "it will always be an Audi" as some will try to say, but a car able to be that QUICK, both on a straight line and on the most challenging twisties, and all of this while carrying around a big family with their luggage is already a legend IMO!

Well, it's an estate which should put me off straight away...but in this case it's actually the reason why I gave it cool!! It's a people carrier in the day and a hardcore beast at night. With up to 480BHP on tap in the RS6+ version this "sensible" will out do most cars in a drag race on the streets. Cool.

No doubt, this is a cool one. i don't know another car to go that fast with your family and dog in the back. and since i had the possibility to join a ride in a oettinger tuned version over the nordschleife i'm really a fan of this car and still impressed of its performance and sound.

Supercar performance in an estate. Very cool, but not quite subzero.

Uncool.. Sorry.. I know its a cultural difference but estate in this country means death kneel for the car... All I can picture is mom and pop in a cross country drive.. That ruins it.

Although it's a good sports car this A6 model always looked horrible IMO.

Well for me it was just in the subzero zone. I have always preferred sleepers and this must be the ultimate.

It's not really a cool car, more of a cool with me car.

I'm not voting on this one.
