Looking mean and moody, the Audi S6 has been spotted at Germany's Nurburgring, where it's undergoing high-speed testing. And it'll be very high-speed indeed, fitted with a version of the 5.5 V10 used in the upcoming Q7 4x4.

The S6 won't have the same 550 bhp, 410 lb ft output as the Q7, though its 440 bhp and 400 lb ft from a reduced-capacity 5.2 should be more than adequate... A 550 bhp unit will be reserved for a lighter-weight, even quicker full-on RS6, due in another year's time.

In the meantime, the low-riding S6, with its pair of double exhausts, deeper front grille and airdam and huge 19-inch alloy wheels, is expected to make its public debut at the Geneva Motor Show in spring 2006.

It should look pretty much like the car pictured here, though a different wheel design and unpainted aluminium door mirrors may well feature on the production model.

It Looks gorgeous

Nice Car
 
hmmm... those wheels look horrible on that car and it looks too big to be that low. to me it just doesnt look right :?
 
I like it, does look moody, eh?
 
I love it :heart:

I just find one problem, and that's that the front overhang seems really long...and I love Audi's (see avatar) :p
 
it looks really long! I wonder how long the A8 will be
 
The A8's overhangs are short, I don't think they'll change anything for the S8. another V10 Audi :D
 
exactly... but honestly, I prefer the old S6/RS6... it seems to look alot more fierce... it is nowhere as agressive looking at the S4 :(
 
I do not like that color on that car...and like others have said...long front air dam, and wrong wheels. But I deffinately like the "sleeper" aspect of it.
 
To clear up some things. The engine won't be a v10 for shure. Speculations are: 4.2 V8 NA with about 400 bhp (same engine as rs4) for s6. The same engine but with biturbo (succesfully tested with 600 bhp, but probably will be around 550 bhp) for the rs6 (there are also some speculations about a v10 biturbo for rs6 but that doesn't seem to fit, and wouldn't be the same one as the gallardo). And keep in mind that these are spypics, so this isn't the final version. The s6 and especially the rs6 will look more agressive probably.
But time will tell. If anything important happens I'll post it here (I'm a huge audi s/rs fan).
