RS6 production questions

I have a feeling that my Dad put a down payment on a RS6 but he hasent told me yet. Here are my questions:
-How many are comming to the states this year?
-Is it only going to be sold in '04?
-For people in Europe that own or have driven a RS6, whats the consensious?

The likeliehood it will continue is 0%

Due to emissions regs, no cars can come to the US after 12.31 of this year.

Hey, hope I haven't upset the applecart with today's post against the A8

Sorry, but I gotta tell it how it is. IMHO, on the (generally speaking) wider and less twisty roads in the US, the RS 6 will really rock. You guys get to use the loud pedal a lot without the guilt of knowing it's costing $4+ a gallon too...

Despite liking the A8 (takes me back to my S8 days a bit), I still love the rush of the RS 6 under full boost, and the noises it makes. Sublime performance.
