Audi 100 RS4: The stealthy epitome of Phantom-like elegance
The automotive world has seen many iconic models come and go, and Audi is no exception. Two such models that have left a lasting impression are the Audi 100 RS4 and the S6 Plus.
In the late 1980s, Audi underwent a significant transformation, renaming its 100 model to the A6 and introducing the S6 Plus. This powerful vehicle, equipped with a 326 PS (240 kW) strong V8 engine, marked a significant milestone in Audi's history.
Meanwhile, the Audi 100 RS4, a model that would likely have been equipped with a 2.2-liter five-cylinder engine, was a testament to Audi's sporty character expected for an RS4 model in that era. This car, however, never made it to the production line, disappearing back into the Ingolstadt mothballs.
The Audi 100 RS4, had it been produced, would have featured blue bucket seats, drilled pedals, a metallic gearshift knob, and a color-matched Nardi steering wheel. It would have also been equipped with Procon-ten, a device that could turn the car into an irreparable wreck with a minor impact.
Interestingly, the V8 variant was chosen instead of the Audi 100 RS4. The S6 Plus, with its powerful V8 engine, marked the end of the series and laid the foundation for the future success of the RS 6 models.
Fast forward to the present day, and the RS 4 name has made a success story one class lower. However, an electric RS 4 is expected in the future, but it is still far from series production as of August 2025.
This article does not delve into the requirements and costs for the H-license plate, the current topics of Classic Cars, or all classic car events of the season. Instead, it focuses on two significant models in Audi's history: the Audi 100 RS4 and the S6 Plus.
