Default Is there hope for a RS4 or RS6 Avant in the US?

Cadillac is in with the CTS-V Sport Wagon. Mercedes is now apparently in with the E63 AMG Estate. Will Audi be in?

Come on Audi!

They're making too much money on the Q series SUVs to even consider losing money on the cars real enthusiasts want.

RS 4 could be possible, due to the RS 5 engine and transmission going through certification. RS 6 Avant = not a chance.

Be happy we are getting the RS-5. RS-4 slim chance, RS-6 no chance

sigh, the realist in me says no way
the dreamer says i wish.

i drove an 07 RS 4 Avant for a few weeks while in SW.
I'd buy one in the proverbial heartbeat even if only the blown 6
