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.
