I'm not feeling it but it looks like the photo may have been taken with a wide angle lens. The White G30 looks fat! I'm not sure if it's the lens, the metallic paint or the M Performance [s]Sticker[/s] Blade on the sill but the white G30 doesn't look great.

Blue with solid brake discs is M Sport from the factory

Red, Yellow or Orange is M Performance. They are the same as M Sport, but not fitted by the factory. They are dealer fitted.
You also get the cross drilled discs as a option here. Though you can also retrofit it to the factory Blue calipers.

Gold is ceramic

I have two words: S6
At this level of weight and high center of gravity, the "ultimate driving machine" is really kind of in the background. But while this is nice, the refreshed S6 kicks its ass on the inside and out. You get the 440 hp S6 for the price of a well apportioned 540.
And inside almost any Audi is a special place, compared to the current crop of BMW's. I have a 435 and I love it as a highway cruiser- but the ultimate driving machine it is not. And the sat/nav system absolutely sucks. For the ultimate Highway killer- the S6 is simply the one. I am saving up for an M240- THAT is close to the small car, 6 cylinder speed wagon that is the Ultimate driving machine- or at least its the BROTHER of the UDM- the M2.

The new s6 will have a supercharged 400 hp v6 engine.
