Default 2013 Audi S6 Questions, please advise

Hi,
I really liked the S4 but i want a little more luxury ( power tilt and telescope), little more room , more upscale and beefier engine etc

I considered the bmw 535xi which is about 70k the way i built but for 5k more i think the S6 with Quatrro and V8 feels more powerful and sounds better and i am sure handles better .

Also the A6/s6 although as spacious as bmw 5 series, looks smaller from outside which is nice

I am considering the S6 and the way I built it , it is about 75K msrp
1) How much discount can I expect? guys
2) Thinking of 19" wheels for better ride and also to swap awd rubber during winter in the north east , what do you think?

1) I did a supplier deal, but I understood that this wasn't a commodity car (like an A4), but it wasn't an RS5, so there is likely a decent amount of room there.

2) I avoided the 19's because they're the same that have appeared on Audis for at least 2 years now. I'm resolved to keep my 18" winter setup and swap for the 20's when necessary.

Check out the audi supplier discount..If the company u work for is listed in there then u get a hefty discount like 6%. I ordered mine with 7% om MSRP... which got it down to like 77k.. of course then i added B&O and now its 83k

I would go with 19's because there is so much more tire choice for this size + ride comfort. My dealer said since this car comes with air suspension the diff between 19 and 20 should be minimal... However tire choice in 20inch is horrible compared to 19 inch... Just m 2 cents

I ordered my S6 with fleet discount and 20" tires. After spending $85K on a car, tire replacement really wasn't on my mind Porsche tires are more by the way

Good luck getting any kind of discount on a new car at first introduction. Dealers don't even have them. Don't forget Audi Loyalty (if it applies). I got an additional $1500 off for that.
