A6 / S6 (C5 Platform) Discussion Discussion forum for the C5 Audi A6 and S6 produced from 1998-2004

Audi (apparently) has decreed it's: "RS<<space>>6"--NOT "RS6." What's up with THAT?

S4,S6, R8 and most pointedly, RS4, have NO SPACES, but "RS 6"??

I don't get it.

(Frequently true, that.)

As you can see on the forum re-title...<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/features/tests/2003rs6.html">AW goes for the "space thing."</a></li></ul>

Could be that GmbH is wanting to separate the RS work from the 'standard' Audi line, who knows

Think of the bright side: He didn't ask for something for nothing for once.
