  Audi RS2 Avant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Audi RS2 Avant was a limited edition, high performance Audi station wagon sold from 1994 to 1996.
The RS2 was the product of a co-development project between Audi and Porsche, based on Audi's 80 Avant (station wagon) and powered by a modified version of their 2.2 litre, 20-valve turbocharged 5-cylinder engine producing 315 PS (232 kW) at 6500 rpm.
Audi also produced an S2, which was available both as a station wagon and a coupe.

 Audi RS2
Audi was impressed with Porsche's success of transforming the ordinary Mercedes into a dynamic sports sedan.
Such an explosive performance was well handled by the quattro drivetrain and the massive tires, but the RS2 didn't feel as fun to drive as the Quattro, or to lesser extent, BMW M3.
The RS2 will be remembered for firebreathing power and speed, but it could not match the status of the original Quattro in the eyes of car lovers.

 Supercars.net - 1995 Audi RS2
This is Porsche's interpretation of an Audi, which means some life has been massaged into the normally numb steering, the bumpy gearshift is tighter and more positive and the chassis has been to one of the worlds best finishing schools.
The RS2 is a very different kettle of fish, echoing early Ur-quattros in the way its engine responds to the throttle.
The RS2 uses the same six-ratio gear-box as the S2 and TDJ versions of the 100 and A6.

 Audi Rs2
Audi was impressed by Porsche's success of transforming the ordinary Mercedes into a dynamic sports sedan, while Porsche was also seeking a complement to the factory as the production of 500E was going to bad, Porsche was offered a contract to develop and manufacture an even faster S2 Avant, called "RS2".
As a result, RS2 was not only the fastest Audi, but the fastest estate in the world.
While the RS2 is still no 911, the steering is not responsive enough and the car understeers at the limit, it's the closest thing to a 5-door Porsche yet.

Audi was impressed by Porsche's success of transforming the ordinary Mercedes into a dynamic sports sedan, while Porsche was also seeking a complement to the factory as the production of 500E was going to cease, Porsche was offered a contract to develop and manufacture an even faster S2 Avant, called "RS2".

In terms of handling, the balance was there, the endless grip was there and there was an absense of understeer, but the steering was so lack of feel that should not appear in such a performance car.

 Audi RS2 - World's Fastest Sedans
Based on the Audi 80 B4 and S2 wagon (visit the S2 page on this site), the RS2 only comes in Avant form and with a potent Porsche tuned 20-valve 2.2L turbocharged engine.
The RS2 also shares a few other parts with various Porsche models, such as the brakes, 17" wheels and door mirrors, while the injection-moulded bumpers and chassis also had design input from Porsche.
To extract the extra power from the 5-pot powerplant of the S2, modifications such as a bigger KKK turbocharger, stiffer camshaft, larger injectors and intercooler, retuned Motronic injection, new exhaust timing and a low-pressure exhaust system were implemented.
