Heh, I'm not coming down with a check, but I'd put a deposit down.
I can't make myself buy a car without driving it. I know plenty of people have purchased without ever seeing or driving, but I can't do it.

Why not look for an Allroad. 2.7T and I think they are available in a 6MT.
The 6MT part is probably pretty rare, but the 2.7T will definitely give you better mileage. I consistently average better than 22 MPG (25 on trips).
I also think you'll find the Allroad considerably more fun than the V70R.
Good luck!

Just on paper.....
AR: 250HP and 4200lbs (16.8lbs/HP)
V70R: 300HP and 3650lbs (12.1lbs/HP)
Advantage: V70R by a margin of almost 40%
Neither one is a go-kart-like sportscar, but I found the V70R to be considerably more fun than the Allroad.

I hear you...I really wanted a C5 S6.
Also considered the Allroad and A6 2.7T.
Need a wagon for sure, so the 2.7T is out. Also considered a B6 S4 avant, and the B5 S4 Avant.
The V70R seems like the best compromise between the allroads, and the S4s. I can buy a newer model, with much better fuel economy, and decent performance. I can also do the same mods I could to the S4s/S6 (anti-sway, exhaust, chip).
