Be serious....the new S6 looks like every other Audi still. Audi hasn't come out with anything great in awhile now. Their cars all look the same. The new 5 is going to look great...

Meh I don't get the E60 hate I'd have it over any other 5 series that all look like 5% enlarged copies of each other. Maybe when I'm double my age I'll like conservative designs more but at 23 I'd prefer something sexy over subtle.

It's solid but nothing awe inspiring.

The M badges are corney AF. I hate all the added unnecessary trim on this car. It should be called the 550xi and have no chrome painted plastic bits alla Hyundai. |

I would respectfully disagree- there is a slight but nice roundness to the A6/S6 that the other models just dont have. The top character line slopes down slightly as it gets to the end of the car, the other cars are much more linear the front air dam inlet vents are almost BMW-ish like on my 435 GC MSport. The top of the trunk lid also slopes slightly at each end- to me it is perfect Proportion- with 20's maybe some 15mm spacers- they always make things look better. In person it is very solid IMO

Anyone know 100% this model is coming to the UK ? I can't get a decent answer from BMW

Thanks Marius.
Another question. Windows contours are black so it looks like shadow line. But how come the front doors airvents (the golf clubs) and front bumper adornments are chrome/aluminium rather than black, like in luxury line. Is it possible to mix the two ? Thought it was either all black or all chrome/aluminium. Last edited by karmakal; 12-07-2016 at 07:40 AM.. |

It's an exclusive finish for the M Performance models.

Looks great, but I'm so picky that I wouldn't buy it simply because of those awful exhaust tips. If it's supposedly a sporty version, then put big round tips over the tailpipes. These look like they come from a Lexus or Caddy.

I took this cell photo of my car on Thanksgiving Day - it's 8 years old with 130k miles. Stock suspension, only 'mods' are the lip spoiler and wheels. I actually got a comment on it this morning at the gas station: |

I like the A6's lights, but aside from that the exterior doesn't do much for me. And, if price was my sole concern on a car, I guess I wouldn't be shopping for an Audi or a BMW in the first place. Cut rate semi-luxury cars can be found over at the Genesis store. |

ed on looking Android $ 30 pad tacked on screen looked like crap (The machined aluminum Burmester stereo speaker covers though were awesome). And seeing the car in person and compared to the new A4 (Which is VERY bland) the S6 is muscular in its own way and to me just looks fantastic in and out- and at 450 HP 420 lb. ft. getting 0-60 in 4.2 (.1 quicker than M2?) with 4 wheel drive is just the cherry on top. |
