Audi's A6 4.2 "S-line" Breaks Cover

Sporting Intentions for the new A6

March 18, 2004

Still a very new model, not much is yet known of Audi’s full intention for “S-line” implementation for the new A6, known internally as C6 or the sixth generation of the C chassis. While “S” and “RS” badged versions of the new A6 are sure to come soon, Audi has released extensive photos of an “S-line” model fitted with the new 4.2-liter FSI engine. Whether or not other “S-line” models will be built with other petrol or diesel engines remains to be seen.

What can be gathered from the photos is that “S-line” models, traditionally produced by Audi’s quattro GmbH subsidiary, is that they will be fitted with a 5-spoke alloy wheel similar to that found on today’s RS6 models.

Larger front and rear fascias with large dual exhaust bestow the car with a much more aggressive appearance. “S-line” badging is removed from the rear side panels as on previous “S-line” models and instead slot in on the upper passenger side of the front grille where normally a “quattro” badge is found.

Inside, wood trim is replaced for either aluminum or, in the case of the large center console segment, what appears to be a matte black plastic. Audi’s newest three-spoke sport steering wheel features the shield grille-mimicking logo surround, though seems much more attractive with perforated leather and red/silver “S-line” badge on the lower center spoke.

nn c'e' che dire...e' fantastica!

Si ma scusa le differenze estetiche con l'A6 normale?

Grazie carrera, non avevo letto bene. Comunque, cambiare cerchi, volante, mettere qualche adesivo e qualche pezzo d'alluminio interno non mi sembra gran chè come caratterizzazione.

infatti.. arrivera la S6 in futuro o addirittura la RS6 ..

La linea esterna mi piace parecchio, sono gli interni che continuano ad esser brutti a mio parere, gli hanno messo pure il volante della A8... bruttissimo

Non sarà mica un photoshop : Guardate il faro destro della seconda foto.

Ciao :wink:

Diciamo la "S-line" e' il rispettivo della "Ti" Alfa Romeo "M" pack BMW e "AMG" pack Mercedes Benz....

Solo che si le foto sono riferitte alla S-Line 4.2 ma questo allestimento sara' disponibile con tutte le motorizzazioni della A6.
