Which S6 trim does Edmunds recommend?

The Prestige is the way to go. It costs nearly the same as the Premium Plus with a few of its optional packages added, yet it also comes with extra features to boot. From the options list, we recommend the S Sport adaptive steel suspension, which replaces the standard air suspension for a more connected road feel.
