Audi South Africa is bringing something truly special to our shores—the only RS 6 Avant GT to ever grace the country, and it’s going under the hammer this November! With just 660 units produced globally, Audi has managed to secure number 74 of this coveted masterpiece, and it’s all set to be auctioned at a glitzy gala dinner. Fancy getting behind the wheel of one of Audi’s finest creations? You’ll need to register your interest at audi.co.za/oneofakind before the big event.
This is no ordinary auction—it’s your chance to own a piece of motoring history! The RS 6 Avant GT is the pinnacle of performance and design, marking the final chapter of the legendary RS 6 series. Audi fans, collectors, and speed enthusiasts alike are expected to flock to Cape Town on 7 November for a night filled with high-octane excitement and fierce bidding wars. A portion of the auction proceeds will be donated to charity, adding a heartwarming touch to this extravagant affair (watch this space for more details on that front).
Sascha Sauer, Head of Audi South Africa, sums it up best: “The Audi RS 6 Avant GT is not just a car—it’s the culmination of over two decades of engineering excellence, representing everything we love about the RS 6. For us, it’s a legacy we’re incredibly proud of.”
The RS 6 Avant GT – A Legacy in Motion
The RS 6 Avant GT is no ordinary sports wagon. Inspired by the RS 6 GTO Concept crafted by Audi apprentices in 2020, this final edition pays homage to the Audi 90 quattro IMSA GTO race car from 1989. And it’s packed with details that will leave car aficionados weak at the knees.
The exterior boasts a pass-through roof edge spoiler, a redefined diffuser, and eye-catching 22-inch wheels. Inside, you’re greeted with RS bucket seats in a heritage colour scheme and the car’s unique number (did we mention it’s 74/660?) proudly displayed on the centre console. Underneath, a lightweight adjustable coilover suspension and a finely tuned quattro sport differential make sure this beast stays glued to the road.
As for the power? Oh, it’s got plenty of that. The twin-turbocharged V8 pumps out 463 kW and 850 Nm of torque, launching you from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds. Need to hit 200 km/h? You’ll be there in 11.5 seconds. Top speed? A blistering 305 km/h. This is not just a car—it’s a rocket ship on wheels.
Exclusive for South Africa: Arkona White with Audi Sport’s Signature Flair
Unit 74 will come dressed in Arkona White, accentuated with Audi Sport’s iconic black, grey, and red trim. Even the alloy wheels come in high-gloss white, making this one stand out even in the exclusive world of RS 6 Avants.
Want more? The car also comes with some serious optional extras, including:
- RS ceramic brakes with bright red callipers.
- RS Dynamic package plus, unlocking that incredible 305 km/h top speed.
- A Bang & Olufsen 3D Advanced Sound System with 19 speakers and a 1,820-watt output.
- Head-up display.
- RS bucket seats in a Dinamica microfibre/leather combo, complete with a honeycomb pattern.
- A full suite of active and passive safety systems to keep you safe at those insane speeds.
Built to Perfection – Literally!
Unlike the regular RS 6 Avant, the GT version is crafted in the ultra-special Böllinger Höfe facility—the same place Audi builds its R8 and e-tron GT models. Each RS 6 Avant GT gets the VIP treatment, spending an entire day with seven master technicians who assemble it by hand. Every element—from the bonnet to the fenders, from the bespoke coilover suspension to the meticulously designed aprons—gets personal attention to ensure that the car is nothing short of perfection.
