Ex-Kimi Raikkonen Audi RS6 Avant Has Vossen Wheels, It's Also Overpriced

He might be driving for Alfa Romeo Racing in the midfield, but Kimi Raikkonen still is feisty when it comes to gaining or keeping his position on the circuit. An accomplished Formula 1 driver who wants to be left alone because he knows what he’s doing, the Ice Man used to daily an Audi station wagon that retailed at €228,000 when it was new.

The seller explains on Netti Auto that Kimi’s family car isn’t stock, hence the exaggerated price in the previous paragraph. The list of modifications starts with BSR chip tuning for the 4.0-liter blunderbuss, a twin-turbo V8 complemented by Vossen 22-inch wheels and Michelin summer tires, a set of 20-inch Nokian winter tires, air suspension, and lots of carbon fiber both inside and out of the gloss white RS6 Avant.

Manufactured in 2013 but registered in 2014, the land missile with space for five people and a medium-sized dog clocked 69,000 kilometers. The third owner inspected the vehicle in July 2019 before listing the ad, and if you were wondering, this bad boy packs 680 PS (671 horsepower).

That’s as much as the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid cranks out with plug-in hybrid assistance from an engine with a similar displacement, and the torque rating is a round 900 Nm (664 pound-feet). So how much do you think this lightly modified RS6 Avant is worth in this day and age?

Prepare to pony up €125,000 if you wanna drive the ex-Kimi Raikkonen family mobile, a considerable amount of euros for a five-year-old longroof with that kind of mileage and no warranty. The 2020 Audi RS6 Avant retails at €117,500 if you were wondering, and the Mercedes-AMG E 63 S 4Matic+ T-Modell will set you back €125,967.45 in Germany.

There’s no denying the real market value of the RS6 Avant is lower than what the seller wants, but then again, this is the only RS6 Avant with such a famous and likable first owner. Those interested in making this car their own can either arrange a trailer for transportation or buy a plane ticket to Kotka in Finland to seal the deal.
