On this episode of TheSmokingTire, we delve into the world of the Audi RS6 Avant GT, a rare beast that roars with 621 horsepower and a legacy rooted in Trans Am racing glory. Inspired by Audi's 1989 racing campaign, this limited edition wagon stands out with carbon fiber accents, 10-piston carbon ceramic brakes, and a unique rear differential for a more dynamic driving experience. The GT sheds weight with a special suspension setup, allowing for precise control and lightning-fast response on the track.
Differences from the RS6 performance model are subtle but significant, from the absence of a roof rack and sunroof to the inclusion of triple adjustable coilovers for a more tailored driving experience. With a top speed of 190 mph and a 0 to 60 time of 3.2 seconds, the GT proves its worth on the asphalt, delivering a thrilling ride that keeps the fast wagon torch burning bright. Despite its hefty price tag, true Audi enthusiasts will find solace in the GT's homage to racing heritage and its unparalleled performance capabilities.
The GT's handling is sharp and precise, with wide tires providing ample grip and responsive steering that makes cornering a breeze. While the numbers may not differ drastically from its counterparts, the GT's driving experience speaks volumes, offering a blend of power, agility, and a touch of nostalgia for Audi aficionados. In a world where fast wagons are a rare breed, the Audi RS6 Avant GT stands tall as a testament to engineering excellence and a reminder of the thrill of the open road.
