I bought a cheap wrecked Audi RS6 C7 and i rebuilt it in in 24hours. But now i have to transform it into something special whilst also fixing the faults we still have with the Audi. Ive decided to try and recreate Jon Olssons Audi RS6 Dtm race car which was made years ago but then stolen and set a light. Lets hope i can pull this off before SEMA!

I would have made it ready for the Paris-Dakar
Bought that Carly it's utter waste of money it doesn't give any dealer abilities at all with my 3 cars.
Want to be careful peddling it for them even if they're helping you. 1000's posts online with complaints also.
Hi Mat - can you ship the Rim / Wheels to Florida? I'll buy them from you?
I'm from The Netherlands and I think it's very very very ugly. I would rather see a sick graphic wrap.
In Holland is a youtuber that bild the same car @dondejong but its unfortenely not Street legal in Holland and the car Goes for sale now
I am from America and I approve this body kit
I am from Germany and das ist gut
I’m from the UK but live in the US. I’m so confused right now.
I’m from scotland and f()C yeah!
Im mentally ill and that is that
its crazy for sure
mat's worked his magic again on this one 😍
Let’s goo!!
you fell off
RUclipss
Yo RUclips
That's unexpected 😂♥️
So late to the party here. That body kit is perfect for SEMA 😂. Only recently discovered your channel and I love that everything you do is with your family and mates. Congratulations on all your success ☺️👏👏
I am from South Africa and I approve the kit❤ keep providing good content, Sir Mat🥃
I am 70 years young, originally from Wales, but living in Australia. Without the body kit you have an everyday car, the kit is what it takes to outshine the mundane and catch peoples attention. I personally love what you have done so far. It has grabbed my attention. Keep it up. Wild is good.
You're old
@@TheSuperBoyProjectsome day you too
@@TheSuperBoyProject why the hate!! It catches up with all of us!
@TheSuperBoyProject I may be old, but I am wise, look to the east and watch the Sun rise, (that will be the morning,) then and only then will you be aware that you are alive.
As a massive fan of Jon's DTM RS6 you should definitely let Jon know. I am sure he would love to support this project in some shape or form, maybe with ideas or tips and tricks. His RS6 was a living legend in the industry, and it came as such a shock that it got stolen and burnt down. Keep up the great work and best of luck. Can't wait to see the finished car!
Similar to the Adam Lz situation here…doubt he wants to be involved when his pride and joy was stolen and destroyed
That'd be awesome if Jon reached out somehow!!
Love Jon and his vision for things
@@Josh-zm9fz Car wasn't Jon's anymore when it got stolen and burned. Belonged to a dealer called Auto Leitner in Amsterdam, who had it for sale almost immediately after the Gumball 3000. There were also some rumours of Insurance Fraud with this car, because the way it got stolen and then burned was a bit of a shady story.
Works for me..😂❤
Matt, I'm from Houston, Tx. You Sir, are a Mental Tool. That RS6 looks absolutely amazing. Never stop being you, You are truly an inspiration.
I'm a Kenyan and i definitely approve this GT3 Kit. But can't let go the original model of this RS6 from my heart😂, from its looks, it 'breathes' fire. Respect for it. Bravo for good job Mat and Fam.
The thicker glass is an option you can buy when configuring the car. It is actually thicker so it reduces the amount of outside noises you hear and i believe it also has some sun protection Film inside the glass
thats almost right. the acoustic glass has two layers of glass seperated by a thin layer of plastic. The A6 glass was an option. The RS6 glass was the standard.
@@vivalaphill that‘s what i meant
@@lol_flo44_hd Yeah but, it's not what you said though. Thicker single-pane glass is standard and double-pane is the option.
The single piece glass with is tempered which is designed to shatter into a million pieces when it breaks. The “two piece” glass is laminated which is two pieces of glass with a layer of plastic in the middle. Laminated is made to crack just like the windshield. They offer laminated glass in both acoustic and non acoustic same as windshields. Some cars don’t offer acoustic though
@@josiahloubiere7742 Audi only offers acoustic glass as an option as far as i know
Hey Matt, the double glass reduces noise. Many high end vehicles use this tech.
The A6 door has just the optional acoustic double glass. So he downgraded it 😅
@@ga4733Now he can hear the car more let the beast roar 🦁
@@ga4733 more like he made the whole thing consistent. He would've needed to upgrade the other three if he wanted to keep this one.
As an American I love this build even more . Doing exactly what I would do if I had the opportunity to . Keep it up Matt 💪🏽
I work at an Audi Garage and see RS variant vehicles all the time - as much as it pains me to say it, seeing this was fresh and new to me so i like it. It is one of them processes that you have to trust right through to the end result though - love what you're doing man and keep it up!
I'm from UK and absolutely love this. I grew up photoshopping cars and loved using race cars as donors so well aware of DTM and Jon Olsson's RS6.
Hi Mat, a Dutch youtuber named Don de Jong has recently created a DTM style Audi RS6, built with the same style body kit as John Olson. This car is built bij Duke Design in the Netherlands. Due to car regulations on pedestrian safety in the Netherlands this car is going to be sold and can only be driven outside of the Netherlands. Maybe you can get some inspiration from it. Sick build!
it was to loud right?
Is dit niet net dezelfde body kit als die van don?
@@Linus-------- the loudness was fixed but the parts that were sticking out were “not safe”
Since Brexit we can get around this safety nonsense by having a man with a red flag walk in front of the car. Take that you crossing borders with no queuing Euros!
Ja zowiezo
I am from the US and I absolutely love the kit being added! Awesome work so far brother keep it up 👏
From Germany. I was thinking in the middle of the video... "Where is body kit Matt ???". And there he is!!! Looks fantastic!!!
Belgium🇧🇪 here, and Jon Olsson’s RS6 was the most iconic RS6 that ever existed. You replicating it is the best thing ever!
Mat, I’m from the U.S. and I think your GT3 kit is just what the RS 6 needed… it is totally sick. Trust your intuitions when it comes to modifications and upgrades, you are very talented and all of the decisions you make are spot on in my opinion.
^ agreed!
You'd better get the new wheels before SEMA! Whatever you do, don't cheap out and use spacers. And I think the car is going to look amazing when you're finished! I was brought home from the hospital in a station wagon (or estate?) and 66 years later still have a place in my heart for them!
Clearly never watched before 🤷🏼♂️
I'm from Malaysia and that kit is just WOWWW !!!!! Can't wait to see when it is ready for the show.
I come from the Netherlands and this body kit is a 10 out of 10 in my opinion. jon olsen's rs6 was a beast to see but in the netherlands there is another youtuber don de jong and he also had this body kit built on his rs6, only because of all the excellent carbon parts it is not allowed on the road and therefore comes in sales.
precies wat ik dacht. ik snap het ook wel van de auto van don dat het niet mag was ook echt het randje en jah je moet ergens een grens trekken, en Jah die grens is bij veel bekendheid sneller gespot en dan pakken ze je sneller. en eerlijk gezegd vind ik bepaalde parts zelf niet erg mooi. iets minder uitbundig had mooier en stijlvoller geweest vind ik.
Typisch Nederland ...... alles moet binnen de kadertjes zijn 😁
Who makes the body kit?
@@lukeh8392Darwin pro
@@lukeh8392 a Japanese company Darwinpro, and the body kit costs about €22,000
I'm a 48 yr old Mom from the US and I always approve of your builds! The thing I love about you Mat, is that you're never afraid or embarrassed to be unique! Can't wait to see it when you're done!
Yes it good to know it passes the mom48rUS test! 😁
My favourite is Hannah! (She is so much better looking than EVERYONE else on this channel) 😁😊😎
I'm from the UK and a big fan of British Touring cars! Always fancied a DTM style build so definitely approve of this project 🎉
Thank you for the Carly code, unit purchased. Night shift 🚑🚑 up in the lovely Northumberland, not to busy so watched the video again, I do think that body kit will look great once it’s all on and those graphics will be fantastic on it.
Look forward to seeing the finished car. Still my dream car. 👍🏻👍🏻
I’m pretty sure the two layer glass is what manufacturers call Acoustic Glass and is supposed to reduce noise in the cabin.
Yep, factory option. Have this on mine and can confirm they look identical to the two layer glass in this video.
A dent man’s worst nightmare.. easily cracked when doing PDR
Definitely nois cancelling one give better confort of ride
1 of the glasses is toughened and 1 is laminated
Some high end cars have had double glazing for many years 😎..👍🏻🤘🏽
Absolutely blown away by the dedication to rebuild that Audi RS6 C7 in such a short time! Recreating Jon Olsson's legendary RS6 Dtm is no small feat, and I can't wait to see the final transformation. Excited for the SEMA reveal!
From England & absolutely love it!! I remember seeing Jon’s RS6 as a kid in a skiing magazine and instantly fell in love
Matt you are a natural! I used to watch and enjoy professionally produced car repair shows on television. But with what I figure is no training, you produce better more interesting videos on RUclips. Also, you are the perfect “every man”. Just a car loving guy with whom I can identify. I am a modest car guy, having a small collection of sort of, classic cars. I have a Mustang, a Thunderbird, a C4 Corvette, and my latest, a 2002 Jaguar XK8 (I’ve been a Jaguar guy for thirty years).
Hey Mat, the difference in glass is probably sound. The RS6 glas got a thin air layer inbetween that insulates the “cabin” from all the road noises, as a added benefit it probably helps in the winter with condensation.
I was going to say the same. I work at Mercedes, so I don't know the specifics for the Audi. But that would typically be like that when a car is equipped with a "sound insulation package", which is either optional or standard for upper lines. Could also be an extra laminated glass, so instead of air, there would be a film in there, helping for heat (anti UV) and theft
@@lolman77I got that on a VW CC . Not all of them have that.
@@darkcontrast ? I'm confused. What did you get?
I have same kind of glasses on my passat too. I think they are laminates glasses and it insulates sound and makes the glass thougher.
The reason is because of the speeds that the car can achieve, it is a laminated Glas like in the front windshield, so if something hits the side window it will not just explode
I'm from The Netherlands and funnily enough, there is actually a Dutch RUclipsr named Don de Jong who put exactly the same kit on his RS6 and made it his daily driver. And I approve this kit for sureeee!
I was about to reply the same, you beat me to it haha!
Also…
He’s going to sell it now because its officially not road legal because of some vague rules…
U got a link lads
It’s for sale because it is not allowed in the netherlands
Yep, Don also has this kit. Maybe connect the 2 RUclipsrs to eachother?
Don de Jong, Dutch RUclipsr also has one. Connect to him to maybe get everything in order. Duke Design Netherlands realised the build. Maybe they have the right blueprint to fix this on time.
I am from Sweden, luckily got to see Jon Ohlssons RS6 just rays before it was stolen.
Totally aprove this, know that thousands of Swedes has been waiting for someone to do this🙏❤️
From sweden and i have to say im not that big of a fan of the kit as a regular daily/project, but for the sutuation with it going to sema it's absolutely perfect
I'm in South Africa🇿🇦 and I have to say that kit is mental. There's a shop that did this kit years back and it sounds brutal as well
Habashwe
Yes..RACE! situated in Sandton,Johannesburg had a similar DARWINPRO Widebody RS6 in grey.Saw it a couple of times and it was for sale a while back.

Ayikhale 🔥
I am also a South African and I love it... Go for the DTM look...
I don’t normally like most mods, but I think it looks great except maybe the front splitter. In the USA.
Looks insane on its own, but once all the other pieces are fitted it will look more reasonable (i think)
when channels i watch comment on other channels i watch
I want to see someone standing on that splitter.. it's the only way of testing it :D
ios 18 when ?
I’m so happy to see you in matt’s comments section, big fan of your channel as well!!
Im in LA, California. SEMA is about being OVER the TOP. You guys are right on point.
Great Video Mat, just bought the obd scanner as I cannot stand that bloody auto start stop in my bmw either! Good luck on the show - stop by in TN if you have time!
I’m from the UK but live in Perth, Australia and I approve of this kit. Got to love that long and low look to a car. Keep it up Mat!
Oi oi
The RS 6 is an absolutely beautiful car. Please get it painted afterwards because a car like this really deserves a lot of love. Especially with the coming era of EV's, cars like the RS 6 need to last as long as possible.
Uk here! I absolutely approve of that kit 💯 it’s dirty in a good way ❤ and I am sure all the rs6 lovers will too you’ve made something special right there 👌💪💪😎
I am from Zimbabwe and I absolutely like the body kit....keep on with the content u re great man💥💥
I am from New Zealand and I whole heartedly approve of this body kit. Go hard my friend, it's a beautiful tribute to the original!
I’m from Zimbabwe and I think it looks great, it certainly helps that you’re recreating a car that was destroyed. Absolutely love the channel and the content you’re creating. Thank you 🙏
i thought maybe i was the only zimbabwean watching the show lol
I’m Zimbabwean too🙋🏾♂️
Agreed the car looks great! Fellow Zimba here and been watching Matt since day one during covid. Great to see him grow to reach us Zimbabweans!
Muzimba zvamurikwese nayi😅
Hey there’s a lot more Zimbo’s than I thought 🤣🤣 love it, hope you’re all keeping well.
Manchester, UK and I love it! I’d 100% rock this on the school run with sheer pride!
Thicker glass is laminated (like the windshield) to keep it from shattering during impact. It's actually 2 glasses held together by molten latex. The thinner glass is the more common (by far), it's toughened, far more tougher/ductile. You could bounce a 4 pound hammer on it with full force (I have a scar from locked in keys of an A5 to prove it, took me 2hours to chisel in)
You should go for a yellow-tint racing vibe on the headlights, it will look great together with the bodykit!
Agreed!
Is it just me or Matt is just damn good at everything to do with cars !! Keep it up my guy
Wilmington, NC in the US and that kit sir...is absolutely SICK!!!! BECAUSE RACECAR!!
From Canada and that body kit is wild! Love it
That DTM RS6 build was Legendary and truly a piece of art. I was genuinely sad when i caught news it all went ablaze. So happy to see you going this route and eager to see the finished result!
Hey Matt, here’s an idea for the headlights… Since you’re keeping the standard ones, perhaps you can tint them with dark PPF just to kill the silver glare?
I believe that tinted glass might be a good idea either, just not sure how it is going to feel with the gray in real life since it seemed quite dark on video... But I believe it might be a great option
The yello ppf for the headlights and a front window smash tint
Also Lesta UK, Love the kit (unusually for an OEM+ person) but loved the Gumball Car for Jon Olsson!
From Australia here, and 100% thumbs up for that kit, its epic!
Hey Mat, There is an Dutch RUclipsr named Don, That currently has the same body kit as John Olsen. He finished that build same in the start of this year.
Haha is precies dezelfde of niet zat ook al te kijken
And for sale @ this moment
Ik wou t ook al zeggen
At 10.50 they show the RS6 is die body
And he is selling it
I'm loving your work big up ...I'm from south africa busy building a polo vivo currently...watching your videos motivates me alot...wish I had a big budget like yours I should've been done with my long overdue project....much love bror
UK and I have a RS6 - V8 Twin Turbo - Loving your DTM kit
It will be all down to the wheels to make this work, love wide arch kits
From Aus and the kit is awesome. Yeah it is wild and out there though that is what being a car enthusiast is all about, being different
I am from Pakistan and this thing is an absolute beast . If you bring this here you are getting sick offers for this . also love your content and efforts you put in your videos as a car guy I can say you surely raised the looks standard.
As an American (and a wagon guy), I approve of this amazing body kit. Looks awesome!!!
Agree
Very Nice! A Dutch RUclipsr named Don de Jong make a widebody DTM style RS6! It’s all on RUclips. With the same kit actually
I'll check it out!
And his car is for sale
i'm italian and i love that bodykit so much the rs6 in general is already a beautifull car but with that kit is absolutely stunning
I'm Portuguese but leaving in the UK, amazing car and amazing body kit.
Big 👍 from me, well done.
I am Canadian and I approve this kit. Loved Jon's when he revealed it. And he did make another one too.
Samsies. Especially those rear wings. I’d rock those even without the kit.
I’m from the US and think this makes sense for North American (wide) roads. Might be tough to daily in the UK, but power to you! I think it’s rad. I’ve seen a couple RS6 avants in person and they’re already wickedly wide. This would be nuts to see in person
From Scotland 🏴 living in Australia 🇦🇺 .
LOVE the RS6, HATE the kit but LOVE watching the process!
So have at it LAD 👍
I'm from the USA,I think it's awesome! Even without the kit it's still gonna look amazing.
Love your videos because in only 20 minutes you see a lot of progress, so it’s never boring. Keep It up
as a swede i love that you try and make it like jon olsson did to his crazy build!
As another swede, I totally agree 😂
Hopefully Matt's doesn't get stolen
In London what an absolute surprise with the kit it looks incredible
From Manchester and absolutely love the kit!!
As Leicester based RS6 owner I fully approve of the DTM GT3 madness!
ok mr jww
Absolutely loving this build. Why not be different, you’ve proved your ideas work on all your previous projects so can’t wait to see this!
I'm from the UK and I 1000% approve this body kit been my dream car since jon olsson made his one can't beat a insanely fast estate car 🔥💯👍
I’m Fr I’m Jamaica, that kit grew on me also. I was like hell no at first but I trusted the process 😂. Love it❤
Essex, England. Trust in Mat Armstrong. There’s nothing Mat and his team can’t do!! You’ve managed to even wrap it brilliantly. 💪🏼 great Vid!
Im from sweden and im absolutely approving this entire build. Jons car was the sexiest audi ever built, this is getting close to it
From Frankfurt, Germany - absolutely love the kit !
I am from Sweden and I approve this body kit, amazing idea to replicate Jon Olssons old one 🇸🇪
Oh man I'm so glad you're doing this. The RS6 has always been a dream car for me and I was genuinely truly upset when the Olsson one was burnt out... what a way to show some respect to a legendary build whilst giving it your own flair!
UK fan here. Even though the front splitter can fit a 3 course meal on it I can see the vision. It’s gonna look insane when it’s finished and kudos to you Mat for always pushing the boundaries with your content, keeping it fresh and original. Always can’t wait for the new vids to drop. Keep doing what you’re doing 💪🏿👌🏿
Front splitter's for an american meal
Hi Mat, great job on that Rs6 I am from Poland and I love it the DTM body kit.I hope to get one like this one in the future🤞
Im from Maldives and I absolutely love this body kit
For once, I actually think this is okay as it is specifically meant to be a DTM replica, so you're golden, Mat!
Indeed.. this looks like a cool hommage to J.Olsson -> RS6
On early C7 RS6 this double glazed glass was optional, i am not sure if it was the timing of the facelift to C7.5 (i think it was earlier) but the double glazed glass became standard at some point on the RS6. It makes a noticeable difference to wind noise and sound isolation in the cabin at higher speeds. I'd definitely be putting back in the double glazed glass and trying to source some for the driver's window too (new it is several hundred pounds for a new pane).
Love the wings, from America. I had a very rare lower wing on my 2004 WRX Wagon and the combination looked great. Mine were smaller, but if you're gonna go big, go big!
Im from Germany. This thing is absolutely crazy. Love the kit!
Massive RS6 fan from the Netherlands here, I do prefer the ABT kits but definitely appreciate the DTM kit when combined with the right colors
Representing SWE over here and as a Jon Olsson fan I f*cking love this!!! Bring back the old crazy DTM Betsafe RS6. Looks super hard to fit all this but mad props to you guys for doing it.
Down in kent man, and bloody awesome, beats these finance bags and wheel builds !!! Keep it up bro
UK here, Love the GT3 wide kits on RS6's
Next level mentalness. Was lucky enough to go to SEMA a few years back. This bad boy will fit in like a dream! Love how you’re evolving this channel Mat. Props all the way!
I’m from the Netherlands. I think this is such an amazing vehicle and you’re only making it more unique and greater. I love the GT3 kit and am honestly so intrigued and interested to see what’s next. Please keep up your spirits because we love every single part of your video!
I miss the Netherlands...and tall people 🎉😂
Bro, don de jong had the same kit, and everybody hated it here
@@yanbakker8336 people did but i think the color of the car don't look good with that bodykit.
@@MaikoMarthijs nah they just hated the kit itself, they said it ruined the rs6
From Sweden here, i think its a honorable thing to mention Jon Olsson! And the car look sick! Keep it up!
From the UK … the kit looks amazing 😮

When you just have the front splitter on it really didn't look right, but as the other parts went on it looked so much better. 👍
I’m from The Netherlands and I love this kit!
I remember when Jon’s car got stolen and was set on fire and it was tragic.
I love that you’re doing this !
Heb ik het nu verkeerd of is dit de bodykit die Don De Jong op zijn rs6 had geplaatst. (Hij zal hem verkopen omdat er teveel gezeik is in Nederland rond de legaliteit van de aanpassingen aan de auto...)
