Default "S" Emblem - where is this from?

Anyone ever seen this "S" emblem? I bought a used 2016 S6 - and love it. Never seen this "S" before, though. Anyone know the story?
Thanks

It is not Audi. It Looks like the “S” used by Mini Cooper or Toyota.

Pretty sure it’s from a Toyota Corolla S. Looks like that to me.

It looks like it doesn't belong on that car at all - totally against the Audi design principle of keeping this car looking subtle like a wolf in sheep's clothing. That S looks like its from a car screaming to be noticed as different from the rest.

a powerful hair dryer and some fishing wire or dental floss. Plenty of videos to do this available online.
