Last year, Audi announced that the RS6 will not be released in the US because of our strict fuel economy and emission requirements. This post is just a sneak peak of what we're missing.

Elegance, sportiness and power are what you’ll be getting with the Audi RS6. This high performance car boasts of a twin-turbo V10 and Quattro permanent all-wheel drive to deliver 580 HP and 479.42 ft-lbs of Torque. After the exciting RS6 Avant, Audi introduces its sedan counterpart. This large business sedan follows the outstanding reputation and prestige of the RS series, which started in 1994 when the Inglostadt citizens mounted the powerful 315 HP five-cylinder to the RS 2, side by side with Porsche. Their dynamic design and powerful engines helped them overcome their otherwise conservative image and emerged as a one of the frontrunners in automotive technology. The Audi RS 6 sports the RS logo on its wide black guards.

You’ll be blown away by its speed and power as it is capable of 0-100 in just 4.5 seconds. Attain the maximum speed of over 250 to 280 kilometers per hour with this supercar. This speed is attributed to the RS6’s superior engineering, with enlarged front inlets, as well as adjustment of the position of the fog lights to increase air flow in the newly designed front apron. Also, to increase agility, the front fenders and the engine hood are both made of aluminum. You’ll never understand how extremely potent this V10 FSI with five liters of displacement, dry sump lubrication and bi-turbo charging unless you take this baby for a ride.

The Audi RS6 is one practical car. With this mean machine, you will not only get a sports car, but a business lounge as well. Bringing in all the nice attributes of the A6, particularly the comfort and spaciousness for both the driver and the front passenger, this car will make you feel like a king. Another great feature is its split folding rear seat to give even more room apart from the already large trunk it has.

The verdict? This high performance vehicle has the makings of a great car. It has both speed and functionality, as well as looks that will make everyone’s jaws drop. With the RS6, you’ll definitely feel like Audi just gets it. Too bad we can't have it.
