I quite like the RS6 Avant. I have driven the sedan and it is FANTASTIC and I've been able to sit in an RS6 Avant and dream.

80k UK Pound includes those European taxes so it probably is less than USD $160 if it ever made it to this side of Atlantic. Anyway, it still a car that is way over my budget...

I wish the US would get it. Everybody else gets to have fun, but we miss out. I'd much rather have an M5 Touring, but the RS6 is set up for some crazy tuning. MTM just made a 700hp version, capable of 0-60 in 3.9 seconds. damn.

Hello,
Yes you are right. i also like it. by the way i just changed suspension of my car because they got damaged in a accident now they working great . so i know a place on ebay SPAM you get all type of items at very good price and the quality is also good.
