That totally sucks if true. Looks I've been given conflicting data, but unfortunately your seems pretty credible. I'm still going to keeping squirreling my nuts away for 2013, just in case.
And I also call BS on avants not selling and the price point being too high! I would choose the avant over the sedan any day. Do they not read this board? These are most of the people that bought their RS cars in the first place...
So jealous of your experience, btw! Sounds like you had a great time.
