The car may have to be re-crashed to see how seat performs. No memory function either.

RS6 and "sport package", wouldn't that just be redundant?

Default Sadly, not in North America

However, maybe Recaros will be available in North America on the next S6 and RS6. One can only hope. The Recaros on the next S6 and RS6 should have three position memory function and all of the power adjustments that the regular power sport seats will have on the next A6 plus power thigh support (which the regular power sport seats do not have).

Default Why I won't buy the RS6.

I'm no longer interested in buying an RS6, even though I've already taken the first step by asking my dealer for a quotation. There's no way that I would get a car with that performance unless it had a driver's seat that held me securely so that I could concentrate on driving, instead of concentrating on staying put in the seat. No Recaro, no order. I don't understand AofA. Maybe a new BMW 5-series or a new MB E-class will be my next car, maybe even a Lexus or an Infiniti.

Default BMW and Mercedes are excellent choices

But why would you want to buy a dressed up Toyota or Nissan in disguise? Waste of $40K-$60K.
