Straight from IAA in Frankfurt I am bringing the pics of these two cool wagons. One is already a tough competitor the second one will become it soon. Both look outstanding though.

have Audi gone colour blind? last year most of their cars at the IAA were white and looked great. but that, erm, colour looks terrible IMHO

The Merc looks much slicker and better than the last generation.

Still prefer the M5 though

thanks for sharing

I was tempted to buy a 2004 RS 6 Avant Plus before getting the E61. The suspension failures with the older RS 6 models (both sedan and Avant) frightened me away.

I agree with xBMWx about the colors; bleh.

However, the new RS 6 is an absolute animal. I can't wait Clarkson to drive it on Top Gear. And hate it...
