This RS6 is the track car of the owner of the Porsche 993TT. He is going to retire the RS6 from the track. It is his daily driver now. It has 83k miles but the body of the car is in great shape and he does take care of his cars well.
This was was in need of a good polish. He said the paint looked dull and it did for sure. He had it on the track one last time a month or two ago and for now he will be having some fun with the Porsche.

Before:
After:
I continued polishing, some panels were in the "before" condition above, some weren't...
