Despite the looks of the old, early ’90s Audi station wagon, the RS2 Avant is a serious performance machine that could destroy almost anything. And not just in a boulevard drag race but on a race track as well. Under the dull and unassuming body lies some serious rally technology with exceptional performance. Audi engineers took the famous inline five-cylinder turbo engine with 2.2 liters and 315 HP and put it in the most uninspiring body style they could find – the station wagon (via Top Gear).

The result was the RS2, with a 4.8-second time from 0 to 60 mph. It had divine road holding in its early 90s form. Unfortunately, production was limited, but if you see one of those cars at the stop light, you know you’ll get left in the dust.
