Hi guys any news on RS6 plus should'nt be worried but i am a bit seen as MY 2016 Car is arriving.

If it ever does, then I doubt it will detract from the regular too much. The premium will no doubt be substantial just for little other than pub bragging rights, and I doubt if the power would be anywhere near the 730bhp that you can get from the likes of Litchfield etc for £3k or thereabouts.

I suspect it'll be parts bin special and not a plus as such. I cannot see a power hike.

It'll have a plaque with X/500 that you'll pay at least £3k for though.

And then some! If you want a black car without any alu on it you have to pay £4.5k for the bumpers and 1.5k for the mirrors (albeit they are carbon), so imagine itll be closer to 8 to 10k (no idea how much extra the previous 2 pluses cost but I'm sure that will propably give a fair indication on price. But I guess it very much depends on what else they throw in.

Or did you mean 3k just for the fact it is numbered plus more for the other bits?

Very true guys once tuned there will be nothing in them really apart from a plaque etc etc, and if speced well nothing that will be over the std cars. ,
Also seen heard somewhere when they do make it wont be limited run numbers was in autocar or one of the big car review company's online that was said from the boss of audi.
But as you said only going to be a few things if that nothing to worry about im sure they'll announce one next year sometime. if they decide to go ahead a RS6 is a RS6 and should have mine 1st sept .

lol yes sorry I meant £3k for the fact it's numbered :p

S8 plus looks a beast....I suspect Titanic type handling, although I appreciate it ain't a track toy.

600bhp would be good in a plus C7...I assume slightly lighter than a S8 too?

S8 has mega soft suspension, it isn't good around bends.

Im sure the RS 6 Plus will get a power hike to 600PS

Not convinced there will even be one. I do expect a parts bin special though.

but why do an S8 Plus ?

Seems an odd choice

To me, it points to 'Plus' becoming a staple part of the RS volume diet ... eeek out those last few units, ala TTRS Plus +20PS and some carbon mirrors

No plus since C6 and that just got some horrid interiors no extra ponies.

TTRS plus was available alongside the vanilla flavour variety, I think.

RS 4 limited editions were poor man Plus'

My ideal Plus has to go on a diet, get MUCH more power, a lower stance from coil overs, carbon race bucket seats and a much louder exhaust.
