Default The RS6 Avant is not (officially) imported by AoA,, but that does
not mean there are none here. An individual can bring one in legally, but it is a "hassle". I have heard of/seen pics of one in Florida...was that the car your friend drove?

There are also RS4s here, but none were imported by AoA.

Cheers,

Default It is all about money and time.
I thought we had discussed this here about 10 mths ago. From what I have been told: Costs are between $10-$20K and the wait time can be mths, even years. There are companies that will do this for you. IIRC there is a newer law on the books that allows one to import a car that was never available here in the US.
I do not remember the companies that provide this service, but I bet someone here will.

Huh? Are you being serious? If so, MANY here disagree with you.
