RS6 as a daily driver
I have been looking at a RS6 for my next Audi and was wondering about it as a daily driver. I drive around 130 miles a day 80% Chicago highways. I'm concerned that this is not really what this car is setup for and I would have allot of shop time or other issues.. Thoughts?

Mine is a daily driver
The RS 6 is a very well mannered sports sedan. The suspension is a bit stiffer, but other then that the cars road manners are just fine for daily driving. It's a great cruiser and all it takes is your right foot to go from 4-door sedan to 4-door rocket.

daily driver it is! and with your miles, invest in an extended warranty, or find...
...a low miles car with lotsa warranty left.
there is absolutely no downside to daily driving this car if you find one for a good price. and with the quattro, you can daily drive it anywhere.

mine isn't driven everyday just because I don't work outside my home
BUT it makes lots of trips to Lowe's and can haul more than you think when you put the seats down. I just have a plastic table cloth in the back to keep it clean when hauling items home.
