Default RS6 Production increased by 33% for US

Found out today at my dealer that they got info from Audi that they are bringing another 300 RS6s to the US market because demand has been so high, and that there could even be more - depending on how quickly those cars are sold.

The dealer here in Salt Lake just got another 3 RS6s dropped off - so that makes 11 total they have delivered in 2 months...

At 10k profit for the dealer per car that's some pretty good $$!

Yay! More to drive down resale! Most of that profit is eaten up in tools and the A4 repair car. =)

If they brought the RS 6 Avant here, it would cause me much financial woe. Keep in in Europe!

Default My dealer said they NEVER use the service vehicle

My service advisor told me it just wastes time for one of the techs

Default Yeah, but the dealer did have to pay for the service vehicle to sell the RS6

That was an AoA requirement for dealers who wanted to sell the RS6. But the fact that your dealer says they don't use their service wagon is, indeed, good news; it implies that breakdowns are not occurring.
