The waterfall is the center console, that's what its called. See how its design from the top all the way down how it flows like one piece.Like a waterfall.
I think the only difference between the two from the RS6 and other tC's is the radio door that's all

Konig Illusions 17x7 black w/blue
I got done work early day, weather was great, so I decided to take some pics with the new rims...
opted for 17x7 so I could use the OEM tires...they only have 500mi on them and with the Eibach springs I didnt wanna go with 18s...

I just got the RS 6.0 a month ago, and those are the first rims that I've seen that I really, really like. Great choice! I probably won't change mine until the tires need replacing cause I think I'm gonna get 18s instead of the 17s but your pictures are making me want to go rim shopping now... lol.
I haven't done any mods yet but am looking for other ideas to make the stripe blend in better. I think it makes the car look sportier but it just seems like it's missing something. Maybe it just needs a spoiler - anybody with the 6.0 have one and if so, where did you get it? I'm assuming it would be cheapest to look for a used one and have a body shop match the color but would that void the warranty if it isn't installed by the dealership?
P.S. - Anybody else with the 6.0 HATE the navigation system, or do I just have to get used to it?

That is a seriously sweet price! Thanks for the info! Are you installing it yourself? It doesn't look very difficult but I'm still hesitant to do it myself. For that price though I might as well use some of the money I save to just have a body shop do it. Then at least I know it's done right and I won't be freaked out about drilling holes in my brand new car. 
I like the fact that the touch screen for the navigation system works with the radio but I'm definitely gonna keep my Garmin around. Plus it's kind of nice that you can take it out of the car if you want to use it in a different vehicle.

I may add a lip or kit or something...dont know yet...
but this time, I wanna stay away from 3in clearances...
I want to be able to enjoy driving the car and not worry about where Im going (drive ways and speed bumps)...
my last car was an absolute beauty but got to be a chore to drive due to
its limitations (3in clearance)
Ive got Eibach springs on it now...so...we shall see..

PFFFFFFFFTTTT 3 inch clearances? I'd still say needs more low.
I'm only giving ya crap, get good stiff coilovers. I ran a set on my car with 2 inches of clearance and only scrapped on a few nasty highways.
PS: I know low from experience ;)

Hahaha, you found me. But even before hand i was riding on Tein ssp's with the upper pillow mounts, re springed and pulled the sprockets i had about 2" clearance at parts of the car. As it is now I'm thinking body drop, His RS6 just looks DAMN sexy and clean, love the color (not the decals) I may get that on my car...

The car is clean, I think the TRD badge on the grill kinda takes away from it. Wheels I'm set on staying with 18s, and the gap pretty much to be eliminated with coilovers. That's me though if I had the RS 6.0, I like the color.
