MTM Creates An Audi RS6 Clubsport With 730 Horsepower


MTM recently took the wraps off of its latest Audi tuning job, the RS6 Clubsport package.

The already-quite-speedy RS6 gets some new aero work (front lip and rear diffuser in carbon fiber) and new independently adjustable springs.

Other external goodies include black 21-inch wheels, black tips on the new stainless steel exhaust system, and that...unique...color treatment.

Inside, there's a roll cage and carbon fiber-backed Recaros with six-point harnesses.

Performance for the bi-turbo 5.0 liter V10 gets a kick in the pants thanks to improved breathing (intake filters and the aforementioned exhaust system) and ECU tuning, resulting in a huge 730 horsepower (537 kW) and 579 lb-ft (785 Nm) of torque.

Top speed of the RS6 CS varies depending on which tires are chosen. It can be raised to something mild, like 173 mph (279 km/h), or buyers can go extreme, with a V-max of 211 mph (340 km/h).

As for me, I'd keep the orange and the decals and pass on the three-tone paint scheme. Either way, the result is an even meaner brute with a (currently) questionable paint job.

Just to end on a positive note: I love the license plate.

VIDEO: BMW 328 Kamm Coupe and Winning Maserati from the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este 2010


At this year's edition of the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este, BMW showed off a 328 Kamm Coupé replica that was built in-house by BMW Classic. The original model, named after the German aerodynamics pioneer Wunibald Kamm, disappeared without trace back in 1953.

If you follow the jump, you can check out two videos of the BMW racing car replica as well as general views from the event and shots from the Maserati A6GCS Spider Fura that won the "Best of Show" award.

The prestigious annual show was organized under the patronage of the BMW Group and was held on April 23-25.
