If you were to replace your A6 Avant wagon, what would you choose considering that there will be no more 2013 A6 Avant wagon.

Since it is nearly the same size, possibly the new A4 Avant.

A CPO '09-'10 A6 Avant or an E-Class wagon. The A4 just doesn't have the leg room I would need for rear seat passengers. There is always a Q5/7 to consider, just not for me though. What about the '13 Allroad?

CPO '10-'11 A6 Avant or possibly the E350, but only if I had could not find another Avant.

I really hate Audi US for not bringing the new A6 Avant to the US Unfortunately that means no Avant in Canada as well. Wish Audi of Canada had the ***** to think for themselves.....

I hate to say this but... probably a new Porsche Cayenne S.

I love the A4 Avant but the dog crate will not fit in the hatch without folding the rear seats and that's a deal killer. I haven't driven a current E63 wagon but I did drive an E 350 wagon and hated it. I thought the Caddy CTS-V sounded amazing on paper but was horribly disappointed with the drive. Yes, the drivetrain was incredible and the handling was actually pretty good but the seats, headliner and a lot of the interior were nothing short of terrible. Just awful.

I don't want to drive an SUV but the current Cayenne S can fit my rear facing child seat in the second row with a dog crate behind the seats and still drives quite well.

I know that most Americans don't want station wagons but I'm really disappointed that so many manufcaturers are giving up on us.

I'm pissed too... i don't know what to do. My 2006 is getting old and i want something recent.

Q7 is way too big... Q5 maybe.

New A4, as mentionned, not enough leg room in the back.

I really don't know

Try to find a CPO A6 Avant or just test drive a Q5. It's really pretty good, just not for me.
