    Talking Who is going to the RS6 release? IAA Frankfurt

    I'm planning to go Sept. 10-11 (press days), but we will see.

    Anyone else going?

    Thanks

    Guys who go to IAA, don't forget about A4/S4 when you will see RS6 there! As I am interested in RS6, but not enough of $€£

    My wife, Chris, and I are planning to be there on the 17th.
    We pick up her new TT Coupe on the 10th, visit Neckarsulm on 11, the Ring on the 14th and IAA on 17th, visit S. Germany until 23rd. What a great way to visit Germany!!

    Regards, Jimmy S.

    I take it you are shipping the car back to the State, that will surely cost a bomb.
    Search and you will find the truth.

    European Delivery for US Cars

    As part of the European delivery Program, US buyers can take initial delivery of their car in Europe, 15 days of license and insurance is included, car is dropped back off to the shipping Co. and car is delivered to the US dealer where the car was purchased. There is no extra shipping cost. It is the normal Audi transport cost bundled into the price of any Audi purchased in the US. We just get to have fun with the car in Europe before we take final delivery from our dealer in the US.

    Audi has actually been lagging behind BMW and Merc on this (not to mention Saab) for a while now.

    Jimmy, great to hear. You and Chris will have an AWESOME time on the autobahn and The Ring!

    FYI, filming is now banned at The Ring... so ...

    You'll need to store the camera in the glovebox and wait till already underway, then... take camera out and mount and start recording on the go, then make sure to take camera back off before getting back to the "pit"... but you didn't hear that from me...

    That is a bummer!! Seems like it would be pretty darn tricky to do all this on the fly, so to speak?
