Contemplating on buying an RS6 but missus goes ..yes.."only to leave in the rain and sun most of the week..."
How many owners have a garage and use it for the RS6?

I used my garage after finding someone snooping around on my property.

Mines kept outside, no garage at the house, and wanted to own such a car. Tadass, the cars not going to melt in the open air!

Drawing too much attention? I guess it's hard with such a car?

I have garage but wouldn't fit..now thinking should I just dump the idea of owning one. Maybe I'll win the euro lottery tonight and get a house with a garage first...lol

I would go for it
They'll be fine outside bodywork wise, no different than leaving an A6 outside. They do seem to draw the wrong kind of attention though. I leave mine outside as I'm in the middle of no where..

Yes true not going to melt, but makes additional attention for unwanted persons also birds <beep> on a car

No garage for me - and only downsides, pollen leaves a lovely layer on it once washed and the seagulls seem to love sh1tting on it, especially when it's just had a bath. Never (touch wood) had an issue with security with it, or my previous 6. Wouldn't not buy a car just because no garage - in any event these cars aren't supposed to be "garage queens"

Yes I have a garage! It was just big enough for the C5 beast, but had to have a wee extension because the C7 is a bit longer!
Much amusement for the neighbours when I first did it!

Awesome..I was looking at various ways of making my current vehicle fit in the garage and then ended up just moving the boiler and water tank into it. Now I'm thinking...maybe I need to move it again lol

Yeah..birds tend to love crapping all over cars, especially after they've had a nice clean and polish.. !!

I'm thinking the same..and still on the fence. Would love to have a garage and use it in the same condition I left it in, rather than leave it outside and when I come to use,find the largest pile of bird poo on it!
