Default Having some insight concerning your driving conditions, ...

You should be garaging a RS6 Avant from Nov thru April.

Default Four Thousand, Five Hundred lbs.....Not saying it won't pull like a train; it will.

But it's going to handle like it's on rails, too. Long, fairly straight rails, with no need to turn like any Sports-(insert chosen class here) should be expected.

It's not a matter of whether Audi will "put an RS badge on a pig".....Marketing tells them that it will sell. It will be a great alternative to the railways, and the Trophy Wife who will occasionally need to scare herself silly getting on the freeway to hit Neiman's, while the hubby gets an occasional adrenaline rush when he has to take "the wife's car".
Any marketing verbiage (and it IS Marketing, even if it's in a "Specifications Description") implying "Sportiness" should have a disclaimer......or simply eliminated.

Entertaining for a wagon? Only in a straight line. It will look great in the softly-lit garage next to the F430 with the Chromed 22s and 37 extra Rampante badges.

Default Naw, slap on some Hakka's and your golden..

Just need to pay close attention to the winter beaters spinning out beside you.

Default Absolutely correct...Above any market in the world the US one can afford for unique

and high performance cars...My word, if Audi Exclusive was offered here a lot of people would be custom ordering their cars for a unique interior etc.

It is such a shame that AoA don't get it...They unfortunately are pushing away the enthusiasts.

Audi is conservative and I don't think they include "rollout."
