A clean C5 RS 6 Avant just hit the Dutch market—the kind of practical 580hp hauler that defined the mid-00s before Audi decided efficiency mattered. That naturally-aspirated 5.2L V10 paired with a six-speed manual made these Avants untouchable for winter runs with style. Values are finally climbing as people realize these aren't getting replaced.
