I've noticed that there are no real mods for the car...

I am in LA and don't see C7 A6'a that often. Also it is definitely not a Grammy car...IMO, it looks much better than the A7...also, the LED headlights look much better on the A6 than the A7.
Also with the Statis Brakes, jrAudi just got them, and I believe that he said they were 6-piston as well...are you sure about that?

Living in Southern California all I ever see is 5 series, 5 series, 5 series, E series, E series, E series, oh hey there's an A6, 5 series, 5 series, 5 series, etc etc. Plus I think the prestige models with the 20" sport package looks even more aggressive.

I'm seeing a ton of A6s here in Chicago lately. Funny thing is, if I look too quickly, it's almost hard to differentiate the A4, A6 and A8. Of course upon closer inspection, it's easy. I'm not exactly thrilled with the way MB, Audi and BMW have tried to make all of their models look like each other.

The A7 has a weak looking rear taper like a 1950 Buick Special 4-door fastback. That’s the car I learned to drive in and it comes to mind when I see the A7. To me the A7 design, while admittedly sensitive, comes off as neither handsome nor robust. Even with their chunkiness the BMW 5 and 6 series Gran Coupes look much more muscular and powerful than the A7.
It is a subjective judgment to be sure, but to me the A6 is much more of a “guy’s car” than is the A7. In fact, most A7’s I see around here are driven by women.

I couldn't agree more that the A6 is better looking than the A7. Where I live in Westchester County north of NYC I see plenty of both.

I disagree about the Gammy car... I live near the North Shore of Long Island, (quite a wealthy area) and I seldom see C7 A6s... I see 1,000,001 BMW 5 Series & E350s.
As for the mods, here is what is available so far .. ABT stuff is only in EU. You would need to import
H&R Springs
H&R Coilovers
Stasis Suspension (Springs & Sway Bar)
Stasis Exhaust
Stasis SS Brake Lines
Stasis BBK (I think 4 piston)
Brembo BBK (I think 6 piston)
AWE Exhaust
ABT Front Lip
ABT Side Skirts
ABT Rear Valance
ABT Trunk Spoiler
You can probably make your own custom air intake, should give your s/c'er a little bit of whine
