What a beautiful car. The wheel flares aren't aggressive enough in my opinion but the rest of the car is unreal. Audi says the sticker is 190,000 euros so you do the math on whether or not it will make it here.

I'll post up some pictures later.

$299,810.34... seems a tad on the high side for that car.

Default Thats not right. They must have mispoken,. Price in UK is 77,000 pounds or $153,000.

Audi UK price list confirms this.. Nobody would pay $300,000 for this machine. And, it isnt, never was and never will be coming to the USA.<ul><li><a href="http://ak4-uk.audi.co.uk/controller.do?next=&amp;page=&amp;slot-value=rs6avant&amp;slot-explicit=&amp;slot=carline&amp;kind=&amp;v_r=&amp; v_z=&amp;v_d=&amp;v_x=&amp;v_cb=&amp;v_mod_sort=&a mp;v_serie=&amp;v_basics_images=&amp;v_basics

UK pricing is always very high as well, to account for amortizing the high costs (and high stupidity factor) of right-hand drive.
