Just saw the RS6 in person at an Audi City Center. It was under a cover that they took off to show and no pictures allowed. It was absolutely stunning and perfect. Proportions of all the aggressive angles of the Avant are very well done. It was an Audi exclusive color in a bright yellow and blacked out exterior trim with the black sport seats matching in the yellow stitching. Wow. I think this is the color they will be unveiling at the Frankfurt auto show next week, thus the reason for secrecy.

Comfort mode is very plush. I have 22’s (switching to 21’s) and even then it’s completely comfortable for a road trip, highway cruise, commute, etc. With 22’s you get just a little noise and vibration over expansion joints and the like but nothing extreme. I think with 21’s it will be luxury car smooth. The other settings also quiet down nicely in comfort (steering effort, sport diff, exhaust, shift points, etc.). I switched from an E63AMG wagon which was miserable even in comfort and the RS6 is a true luxury cruiser when dialed back.
