Despite being driven by a whole bunch of football players, the Audi RS6 is still pretty cool. After all, here's a car with a gigantic boot that's about as fast as a top-end sportscar. It's also got a split personality, which means you can drive it like you want the pistons to come out of the hood or be all relaxed and civilized.
Try as they might, Audi was not able to make an A6 estate car into something that looks like a Lamborghini. Flared wheel arches and huge air intake make for a very imposing and yet strangely simple look. But what if you want that to be embellished, what if you want custom wheels?

You go to a company like ADV. They've just released an awesome set of photos of their latest project, where a purple RS6 has been fitted with 21x10 hardcore track wheels. The ADV10 Track Spec SL rims are coated in black and work well with all the other shadowline trim elements on the car. In a world filled with color, this thing is like a black hole sucking in all the color and your attention with it.

For those of you who don't know, the new RS6 packs a twin-turbo V8 instead of the V10 the old generation came with. While the old mill had Lamborghini genes screwed in place with turbocharging, this one is shared with a couple of Bentley models. The official ratings are 560 hp and 700 Nm of torque, but independently dinoed cars have put down more than that.

If none of the tech facts matter and you just came here for the photos, we can't blame you. The purple Audi is "bite the back of you hand" beautiful.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
