The Audi RS6 Avant Lovers Thread

This might be a silly question, forgive my ignorance... But what is the difference between a B8 and and A8? Or is it a B6 and an A6?

An A8 is the flagship Audi saloon; akin the BMW 7-Series.

"B8" is just a model code for previous gen A4. The current A4 is the "B9".

The "B6" A4 was the pre/lift "B7" shape A4 i.e. The one with the RS4 sedan.

I thought it's like a body kit and and an interior upgrade for buyers that want something a little more "luxury".
Why not just stick to Audi A4 2012 or 2011 or whatever?

Well mainly because a Platform lasts a couple of years: A4 Wiki Page

B5: 1994–2001,
B6: 2000–2006,
B7: 2004–2008,
B8: 2008–2015,
B9: 2015–present

Also platforms do overlap, so lets say I have a Audi A4 2015 model. You wouldn't know which Platform it is and thus the need for a Platform Code
