Would be interesting to see that combo...RS4 + C6 Z06. I love the Z06. Just so awesome.

You'd have a double widebody garage.

Maybe because it is?

GS350 = 190.7" long, 72.4" wide (excl. mirrors), weight 3850-3970 lbs
A6 = 193.9" long, 82.1" wide (incl. mirrors, so tough to compare), weight around 4200 lbs

They use Audi dealers for repairs. The Audi standard is that it warrants cleaning when you get a CEL.

The way I see it, the Rs4 is a $35,000 car to you right now (i.e. that's what you might get for selling it). That's the cost of a new Acura TSX or something uninteresting as hell like it.

nice

My one garage side barely fits my B8 A4 Avant, which is same size as an S4 sedan. I'm talking maybe 1" to spare at each end. The B7 fits comfortably. I believe it is 180.8".

Funny, I was at the dragstrip 2 weeks ago and there were two of us in stock RS4s running high 12s (12.7-12.9 @ 109-111). A guy in an IS-F was there running low 13s, but had a 12.90 as his best. ...

the red choice does look good with the Ibis White. I think Ibis + red/black seats looks pretty cool too. A bit shouty, but fun to look at.
