lmmlmmam Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Thought about it myself! Really loved the promo shots of the RS6+. Uber stealthy. Only drawback is things like the Clio sport seem to have charcoal wheels. Kinda spoils things a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesB Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 I'm well aware that I might be committing automotive sacrilege here but am I the only person who thinks that having charcoal/gunmetal alloys just makes them look dirty? I thought it was a real mistake on the RS6+ and assumed it was the result of a committee sitting round a table with a brief to make the plus look different. Personally, I think they totally missed the point - I bought an RS6 for understatement. There was already enough different about the RS6+ to let the true enthusiast know it wasn't a standard RS6 without doing things for the sake of it. Similarly, why did they dechrome? Yes, it made it different from the standard RS6 but I'm not sure it made it look any better. Here I feel obliged to say that I chose the standard RS6 over the plus partly on looks (as well as price ) so might be a little biased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durrsaku Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 No you are not the only one. I must say that i do like the black stealth ones though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizze Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 I do love the dechromed look with black rails and the charcoal alloys too. Like them both, and wouldn't say no to either if I could live with the fuel costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Ditto. Don't think they look good at all. Much prefer the standard RS6 look to the RS6+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_G Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Think it depends on colour, needs to be dark with charcoal wheels (black, moro blue, dolphin grey for e.g.). Avus or lighter colours dechromed IMO don't quite look right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
