Let me start off with this: I have always been fan of Audi Avants. Yeah, so?! I like wagons, don’t judge.
I have good reason, too. Have you ever seen the legendary video of a modified, MTM B5 RS4 making an E39 M5 look as though it is moving in molasses? If not, give it a look below.
Since that moment, I have always wanted a hardcore wagon just so I could blow away anyone who wanted to play at a light. And the boys behind that wicked RS4, MTM, have decided to get a little more crazy-go-nuts with their latest Audi Avant, the RS6-R.
If the “regular” RS6 Avant did not have enough oomph for you, this modified version will certainly fix you up, real quick. The entry-level MTM RS6-R only requires ECU modifications that up power to 656-horsepower and grows top speed up to approximately 193 MPH. In addition, torque swells to nearly 580 lbs-ft making the modified RS6 turn 0-60 in under four seconds. Still yearning for more? MTM produces an even more beastly version packing 702-horsepower.
What makes this such an interesting story is that the MTM RS6 managed to beat out all of the competition at Auto Motor und Sport’s high speed event at Nardo. This included: a modified Lamborghini LP560, Ferrari 599 GTB, F430, Porsche 997 GT3 RS and 9ff 800-hp 911, Mercedes-Benz SLR 722S, SL55 AMG, S65 AMG producing 730-hp, Maserati Gran Sport and a Corvette ZR1.
