Mine's a 'Maybe' as in "Maybe, it will look good on the road" and not "Maybe I will buy one", well not a new one anyway, give it a few years and who knows.

'Maybe' buy one, for the avant anyway. If we're talking saloon then it'd be 'never'.

saloon no. Avant looking unlikely. Think I'd try and pick up a nice used RS6. By the way are they still making these? And until when?
RS4 B5. Where it all started.
RS6+ Never to be replaced.
Replaced by: 997 Turbo. Didn't like.
Replaced by RS6. I like(d).
Land Rover Defender. Not as nippy.
Back with C6 RS6
And again C7 RS6

Only put dont think so cos i never say never. But 'don't think very strongly' that I'd be buying one and 'don't think very very very strongly' that I'll be buying a saloon!
Anyway I won't be able to afford one what with the depreciation on my RS6!

I am a maybe (for the Avant). But TBH I need something a class size bigger for the family runabout these days.

And another thing.... From the 'Autocar' front page this week: 'the most exciting Audi ever!'. Erm, I somehow think that a lot of people here might disagree! (Presumably the words 'to be imported into North America' wouldnt fit on the page).

Jesus, when will North America stopped getting blamed for the short commings this car MIGHT have, in some peoples opinions ?

It's a great looking car. I can't wait to drive it in Barcelona.

If you don't like it, fine.... Stop blaming NA 'enthusiasts' for what you don't like about the car.

Didn't realise this was such an elitest-Euro forum.....

Well, why is it that every complaint that folks have about this car, is because it's " Aimed at the North American market " ??

I'm not taking it personally. I know you're not talking about ME, but this is stupid.

If you don't like the car, so be it.

Blame Audi or Quattro GbmH.... stop bagging on it for 'being aimed at the NA market'.

Beleive me, any of us N. Americans on the board wish we could just get it in Euro Spec. and get it in July.
Or wished we could of had the B5 RS4 to begin with......
regards,
