Default RS6 Avant Petition

Not sure if it's already made its way through here yet, but here is a link to a petition asking AoA to bring the RS6 Avant to The States.

Default Are all of these people serious about buying one...

or is this just an "I'd like the chance to look at an RS6 Avant" petition. I'm not wanting to start a flame war but I'm not sure what purpose this serves. In the numbers that Audi has quoted to be shipping, it would be enormously expensive to have both sedan and wagon versions.

Default I'm sure some of the folks are.

I would buy an RS6 Avant. That's why my name is on the list ( #77 )

Default It is a waste of time, IMO...no way is the RS 6 Avant coming...no way...

We're lucky the sedan is coming...

The market for a $60k+ wagon is small enough...forget a $85k wagon. If MB didn't see it worthwhile to bring the E55 AMG Estate here, I suspect it is because they recognize that the market just isn't there for it.

If I had a choice between the two (sedan or Avant)??? I don't know...if I already had the S6 Avant and was keeping it, I'd definitely get the sedan, if not, I'm not sure, I still might get the sedan...although the Avant is bad-*** and unusual...450 HP station-wagon!!! Cool

aren't Audi's RS cars traditionally Avants?

Default Yes, but it is a very short tradition...

the RS 6 sedan is the first non-Avant RS...but you probably already knew that
