For most, the RS6 is a spectator sport. Might as well leave it here!

I know, I know...I'm in turmoil!!!

I'm getting bent about the vibration in the 4.2...and seeing this as an opportunity to get something new and different. The RS 6 thing hasn't changed. My intent is to get one 6-12 months after introduction...after the mega-gouging is over and cars are sitting in the showroom. If that doesn't happen, then I will re-evaluate at the time...no big deal...life moves on.
This all started with the wife complaining about wanting a car she can "beat up" without feeling guilty...but big discounts on leftover S8s and S6s seem mighty attractive, but a fast little manual transmission hatch is also, but then the bargain lease rates on the 745i seemed pretty cool too...oh yeah...and she can get any Hybrid or similar she wants...but now she doesn't want to.
I don't know what I'm gonna do...but before I drop $3k on suspension stuff and chips for the 4.2, the vibration must disappear because I can't take it anymore...so where I'm going? I have no freakin' idea...

Can't, the "dork's only and wanna-be's" sites are reserved for owners of NON-SPORT Audi models.

Hey, he "seemed" OK when I met him a couple of months ago....

but he changed after the high-speed run. Neither the car or him have been the same. Can traveling at 161+ mph and NOT crashing be hazardous to your health???
