  • The Audi RS2 Avant. Launched in 1994, and not sold in the USA, this specific car was a German market car that is fresh off the boat having arrived in the USA - once it reached the 25 year old mark!
    Today's video is presented by SoloWerks Suspension, who are based in Fresno, California, and part of the KW Suspension family. You can find out more details and purchase their coilover kits here:

    --------------------------------------------------
    Jamie has imported dozens of Audi RS/S and VW Golf Rallye’s to the USA for customers and friends. This was the latest one, and since we’re doing the TH-cam’s now it seemed like an interesting (and particularly beautiful) car to share. We hope you enjoy it, and apologise about the terrible weather that prevented us from politely doing a 400 horsepower Quattro launch ;-)

    All first model is not the best, it’s just the standard of what’s next! This wagon is very expensive these days, can’t get one under $50000 USD.
    A Newer RS (4,6,7 series) can cost less then the fist one out of the line and the performance is just crazy. I will love to own one but this car is a classic now, Iconic I must say. If you own one be happy, it’s probably the only Audi & Porsche ever produced car... we will not see anytime soon one of these collaboration again.

      Wise choice. My first car almost became an old Audi Urquattro that I would have gotten for a steal, but young and stupid that I was I never went through with the buy. Still kicking myself in the teeth for not getting that car, it would have been worth a pretty penny today. I can also imagine that the prices for the first gen Rs2 has skyrocketed as well.

  • @julianconnery9361
    @julianconnery9361 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Th reason a coupe or saloon/sedan was never made is that Porsche wouldn’t do it. The performance was so good that they thought a coupe or sedan would compete with Porsche sales. Wagons where still fairly “uncool” so didn’t pose as much of a threat. It’s also why official Audi stats claimed 0-60 in 5.4 sec when it was actually 4.8.
    Porsche didn’t want it publicly stated as it might affect their sales.

  • @ralleyquattro

    They only made 1800 S2 Avants and for the price difference and potential I'll take one of those over the over hyped RS2. Oh wait, I've owned 2 of them already. Anyone who wants to experience something like the RS2, go get yourself an S2 Avant, chiptuning and some BBKs and you are off to the races... mine even had the optional RS2 style Recaro seats which BTW were optional on ANY Audi 80 of that vintage. Hope this helps.

  • @nsrdave
