Default Greetings From The A6 Forum! Quick A8/S8 Question

If Audi ever came out with an A8/S8 Avant, would you be interested in purchasing it?

It was called the Avantissimo, and they let Dodge steal the design!

That looks very, very similar to the "Avantissimo". Goddamn Dodge!

Default In a heartbeat.

I drove the A6 Avant (see sig) for 3 years, it's out in the driveway. Great car. Very practical. A thinking man's SUV.

I can't wait to take a close look at one of those to see how cheap the interior looks.

Dodge made the wagon look sinister. Reminds me of the movie The Car where a small community was terrorized by a DEVIL CAR. This must be for the sequel.

IMO, it would be the perfect car.

"Never Follow" - guess that means we don't get one?
