Gents,

Caveat Emptor. I'm having some issues with my recent RS6 purchase and sent the letter below to the stealership involved - Rusty Wallis Volkswagen in Dallas:

Russell and Carlos,

Just Picked up an RS6

Ebony Black, Warm Weather Package, Carbon Fiber trim and 12k miles. Bought a Fidelity Platinum warranty 3/36. Car was owned by a collector in Dallas. Selling a few of his cars to get a 458 Italia.

M3 does not equal Porsche........that is where the brain trust at BMW has priced it....LOW sales.

Re: why does it need a direct competitor? it fills a perfect niche

It doesn't. It is just disappointing to me in that the S4 used to be a direct M3 competitor and now what in the hell is it exactly???

Re: Well, Texas is not the world. The B7 RS4 has been the most successful RS model to date.

Fine............sure it may be. My point is that there was (2000-2002) a B5 RS4 that could absolutely destroy the M3 at the time. So to recap, in 2000 the S4 could compete with the M3 and the RS4...

Re: IMHO, since the RS4 franchise has taken off, Audi has repositioned the S4 against the 335i

Not to be an assclown.....but how is it possible to say the "RS4 Franchise" "has taken off"? These things had and have often sat for very long times on dealer lots in Texas for sure. Can't speak to...

Re: Of course, that's why there's an RS4... did you miss the memo?

You missed the memo. When the B5 was introduced it could compete with the E36 M3 at the time. The iterations post B5 couldn't wipe the M3's ass. Hence my question: Has/when did Audi lose the plot...

Re: I say the S4 is reportedly around $6-7k less expensive than an M3....

The new one??? Doesn't the M3 perform significantly better than the S4?

Just asking.

What does Audi envision as the competition for the B8 S4? - Has Audi lost the plot??

Seems to me that the S4 has really fallen quite a ways from the car that S4 Audi rolled out as a MY 2000 to compete with the M3. I had a B5 and was all too happy to buy a B6 until I learned of no...

Just another example of a NAScouch that the US automakers

produce in vast quantities for the enjoyment of Joseph Six-Pack.

Re: so, like many of you, i can't even comprehend not driving a B5S4 everyday

I have Audi to thank for my addiction to boost. I had an 01' B5 S4 with an APR chip (waiting for the B6 until I heard it was to be normally aspirated) and then it came time to move on to even more...

I've shipped a number of times (all enclosed)

I've used Intercity Lines and Passport Auto Transport which I believe was bought out by FedEx and is now part of their Custom Critical transport offering. Intercity is great, but it will typically...

Re: Audi R8 vs. 996 X50 Turbo? Anyone compare the two when shopping?

Why not a 993TT...or Turbo S......I'm keen on the air-cooled cars. Porsche pretty much turned a page (a bad one IMHO) in 1998 when they laid off 2/3 of their work force and started producing the...

Re: My wait for the car is over.

Steve,

I'm very sorry to hear about the screw which has been put to you by either Audi, your stealer or both. Welcome to the sometimes disappointing list/s that Audi complies. I previously owned...
