RS6 (C5) For Sale

[dcsweet]

Hello All,

My car is now for sale as I am moving back to Europe at the end of the summer. I purchased it from a dealer and found out that the previous owner, and the one before him, were forum members.

Since I have had the car the history is as follows:

1. 75,299 Miles: Purchased vehicle. Fuel tank rollover recall completed. Replaced all 4 upper control arm bushings.
2. 76,792 miles: 75K service to include timing belt, water pump, thermostat, acc belt, acc belt tensioner, lube service, spark plugs, fuel filter, cabin filter, air filter, oil filter. Installed Hotchkis stabilizer bars and new HVAC blower motor.
3. New OEM windscreen fitted - purchased from Barrier Audi
4. Queen City Auto - repainted the hood, front fenders, front bumper, quarter panels & fenders, side skirts - to get her looking fantastic again. There was some rock chip damage.
5. Fitted RNS-E navigation system with GPS antenna behind the instrument cluster.
6. Fitted MTM Bimoto 19 X 9.5 (ET30) wheels and Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires, 275/30/19. No spacers used.
Current mileage is 80,308

The car is Mugello blue with a silver interior, sound enhanced exhaust, carbon fiber trim. I have kept the car in great condition and have put 5,000 miles on it since purchasing in December, 2011. Always garaged, always loved.

Price is $26,000. Location is Issaquah, WA.

Thank you to everyone on this forum for the help, the advice, the expertise and the humor, it's been a great experience.

We didn't even get you to a Seattle meetup.

Chung, yes, I have not been around much but would still very much like to meet the Seattle and local owners. I was thinking about the 11 May meet but we'll see what happens.

I am here until 14 May and would like to meet anyone who is available anytime. I am on vacation right now so if anyone is interested just let me know. I just like to talk RS6.

Hello All,

My car is now sold and on it's way to the new owner, I'll really miss the Six. Thank you to everyone for the contributions, it's been a great experience to learn so much and contribute a little here and there. I must say that it is the most civilized forum out there, after reading on other related forums.

I picked up my new car in Germany last weekend, and drove west to France, lots of time on the Autobahn to make sure she was in good shape. The Germans should charge for access to the Autobahn, it is so much fun and it just works.

Here are a few pictures of my new ride. 2007 B7 RS4 Avant, black optic pack, sports suspension plus, electric mirrors, electric Recaros, MFSW, RNS-E, Bluetooth.

All the best, thanks again to everyone, and until we meet again...

Very nice.

Do you see any issues with getting this to the USA?

[MaxRS6]

Congrats and good luck on the new ride and roads to run on with your move

How fitting. Go figure any US RS6 sedan owner wanting, dreaming, lusting, demanding any S or RS series Avant. That is a fine looking car and thanks for putting the salt on the AoA wound.

Thank you everyone for the kind words and I didn't mean to rub salt in the wound. I am just as disappointed and frustrated as everyone else. It's just that familiar feeling of being excited about a new car and I wanted an RS4 Avant ever since I saw one rolling around Monaco back in 2001. It's a shame about the way AoA come to their decisions because with the number of serious Audi RS enthusiasts in the US, the new cars should sell very well. But what do I know.
