The C5 RS6 (2002-2004) was Audi's first RS6, an Avant and Saloon built with Quattro GmbH around a 4.2-litre twin-turbo V8 (450 PS Plus variant from 2004). Quattro all-wheel drive, a ZF 5-speed Tiptronic and DRC hydraulic suspension gave it supercar pace in a practical estate body. It is a landmark of the performance-wagon genre.
It pioneered the fast-estate formula that defined later RS Audis, pairing a Cosworth-developed twin-turbo V8 with genuine everyday usability. Its muscular wide-arch styling, rarity (especially the Saloon and Plus) and analogue-era character have given it a lasting cult following.
