You’ve gotta love the Peanut Butter and Jelly spec on a great car. Combine with the peanut buttery smoothness of Cognac leather with grape-like Audi’s Velvet Purple and you have an incredible car for fans of purple specifications.
This RS 6 is also a performance, with matte black finish on its Y-spoke alloys, Executive Package, Driver Assistance Package, Interior Protection Package, RS Sprot exhaust, Night Vision Assistant and Ceramic Brakes with Red Calipers.
We’ve got one last car from German Audi dealer Scherer Sport to highlight their mix of RS 6 performance wealth… at least until they share a few more. For this particular RS 6 performance, the specification turns to a color introduced with the market arrival of the pre-facelift Audi Q8 range.
That color is Dragon Orange Metallic (drachenorange; metallic Uni; LY2Y / Y4; Audi). This was a stock color on the Q8 range, meaning that even though it had a relatively low take rate it still can be found with some regularity on Q8, SQ8 and RS Q8 specimens.
However, it’s rare as an Audi exclusive decision so finding it on an RS 6 is a fresh take on a familiar hue. It’s also not Samoa Orange, Ipanema Brown or Solar/Glut Orange, more typical amber hues from Audi exclusive. By our measure, that makes this RS 6 performance decidedly unique.
As mentioned yesterday, Germany’s Scherer Sport dealership has a building full of Audi RS 6 Avants. According to a recent Facebook post, they claim to have over 40 RS 6 Avants available at a promotional price. Amongst them is this very striking color combination.
On the outside is Riviera Blue (rivierablau; non-metallic Uni; LP3G; Audi). Inside, this specification continues to strike a bold pose with light Diamond Silver Leather paired with Alaska Blue contrast stitching.
The last time Scherer Sport ran this sort of promotion, headlining with a gaggle of Audi R8s, it coincided with the end of production of Audi’s mid-engine supercar. We know the launch of the A6 replacement is imminent (Mach 4 via ooooIYKYK.com). Given the proximity of that reveal, it’s quite possible the RS 6 Avant is nearing its production end.
Get them while they’re hot. The C9 Audi RS 6 is expected to be a hybrid, which means added weight. Though the RS 6 Avant is no clubsport lightweight, we’re told the M5 Touring is over 400 lbs heavier.
Since the Audi showroom operated by Scherer Sport is in Germany and not in the USA, we’re not running this as a market find. Nevertheless, this Frankfurt-area Audi dealer appears to have a showroom full of new RS 6 Avants that is worth paying attention to as posted on their Facebook Page.
At the front of that lineup, quite literally, is this example in Oak Green Pearl Effect (oakgrünperleffekt; metallic uni; Q82; Audi). Not to be confused with Porsche’s Oak Green Metallic that we’ve also seen painted on Audi exclusive commissions, the Audi take on Oak Green tends to be a little less dark and a little more gold.
Scherer doesn’t confirm interior details on this car, though it appears to be a tailored Audi exclusive specification on the inside. It’s primarily black, though features accents including bolster panels in Cognac. This is a guess though, so those particularly interested in the interior specification should reach out to Scherer directly HERE.
What: 2024 Audi RS 6 performance Color: Audi exclusive Suzuka Grey Pearl(suzukagrau, pearl effect UNI; LY7F / M1 ; Audi) VIN: WUA1DBF28RN904811 Mileage: 5,018 miles Price at Time of this Writing: $133,700 CarFax:Link Window Sticker: N/A Location: Benson Ford, Easley, SC Dealer listing:Link
Why we love it:
Unless you look closely, Suzuka Grey is virtually white. It’s also slightly on the cool side of the grey spectrum, as is Glacier White Metallic from the standard palette of the RS 6 Avant. So, when a 5K mile RS 6 Avant pops up at a Ford dealership, you’d forgive them for mislabeling the car. We found this car auto-listed (probably due to vIN) as Audi exclusive paint on a major listing site, and followed it through to the dealer site to find more information. While there, we found its listings where it’s mislableled as Glacier White while also listing its VIN. Since we suspected it was Suzuka Grey, we ran the VING and found it confirmed it is indeed Suzuka Grey.
As Audi exclusive colors go, Suzuka is a subtle one. Rather than an eye-searing attention getter, it’s more of an if-you-know-you-know shade that dates back to the B7 RS 4 Avant. Since that time, it’s been present in other RS models like the B8 RS 5 and Mk2 TT RS.
From the looks of it, the dealer is pricing it like pretty competitively for its age and mileage of RS 6 performance, making it an excellent if-you-know-you-know opportunity for buyers. If you’re interested, go see it in person as these photos are low-resolution and not great.
