The Audi RS2 Avant, a legend in the automotive world, was not produced between 1983 and 1991 as indicated. It was a limited-production high-performance station wagon manufactured by Audi in collaboration with Porsche between 1994 and 1995. Its origins lie in the partnership between Audi and Porsche, born from Audi's desire for a high-performance version of their 80 Avant wagon. Porsche, known for its motorsport expertise, readily agreed, and the result was a car that defied conventions. The RS2 Avant was built on the Audi 80 platform, but it was extensively modified by Porsche to become a true performance machine.

The RS2 Avant was powered by a 2.2-liter inline-five cylinder turbocharged engine, developed by Porsche, producing an impressive 315 hp. This powerful engine was mated to a six-speed manual transmission, and quattro all-wheel drive ensured exceptional traction and handling. The RS2 Avant was a revolutionary car for its time, blending high-performance capabilities with the practicality of a station wagon. Its distinctive design, with its flared wheel arches, unique bumpers, and signature RS badging, set it apart from any other car on the road. The RS2 Avant was highly sought after and became a collector's item, representing the pinnacle of Audi's early performance capabilities and embodying a unique collaboration between two iconic automotive brands. Today, it is remembered for its groundbreaking performance, its distinctive style, and its place in automotive history as one of the first truly high-performance station wagons.
