SPY PHOTOS: New Audi RS6

Powered by V10 turbo

Audi is completing the A6 range with the RS6 as an direct competitor to BMW’s M5. Don’t get fooled by the S6 stickers on this Audi. This is the brand new and still secret RS6. The bigger air intakes in the front bumper and the two big oval exhaust pipes are the key clues. While the S models have four round exhaust pipes, the RS models have two oval pipes as their distinguishing feature. Shown in these spy photos is the Avant (station wagon), but it will also be available as a saloon. Powered by the same V10 engine as the S6, but with some help from a turbo delivering about 520-550 bhp, this Audi will give the M5 and E63 AMG a strong challenge. The RS6 will debut in Geneva in March 2007.

--------------------------

Expect to see bigger wheels and more wide arch fenders on the final production model. But I like what see especially the V10 turbo and those cool two air outlets on the hood.

I hope this is just miss information, i would assume it'll be twin turbo, or biturbo in audi talk.

I rather prefer the RS4 cause the A6 always looked a very fat car but this one looks pretty cool.

I hope it will hove other wheels

They have also been testing a V10 5.0 TT, exited to see what they choose , maybe keeping the 5.2 N/A for the S6, S8, and R8.

Are we completely sure this is not the new S6 MTM Supercharged?
And isn't Geneva a little early..... my money is on Frankfurt IAA,

but this is just the first spypic, an S6 mule..... remember the first spypics of the B7 RS4?.... not very promising they either...but it came out very, very good, and yes the current A6 is bigger than the previous.

It doesn't appear to look as aggresive as the Rs4
