    So long ... for now

    After almost 11 yrs/148k miles, I have parted with my beast. Thanks to all for the knowledge, help, and laughs that made ownership that much more enjoyable (and tolerable).

    Have moved on to another German - GL 550

    Not much laying around the garage, but if anyone has interest to buy winter floor mats, or a set of Hankook snow tires mounted on a set of after market wheels, shoot me an email (local buyer?).

    Oh, i also have a single OEM (original) rim in excellent condition, with center cap, if of interest.

    Good luck to all.

    Good luck and so long for now. I'm sure you'll be back in the Audi fold sooner or later. Keep that SC, they've started to go up in value like the older ones now. It just so happens that 4.2crew just posted that he is looking for one OEM wheel?

    Mine is stock, i.e. silver. If of further interest, i'll take some pics for you. I had bought it from another member about 6 years ago as a spare, but never mounted anything on it. I did have it spun on a wheel balancer after I had received it/prior to payment for it, to substantiate its condition, and it was fine.

    Cool! Pics aren't necessary to substantiate...

    Price??? Of course, I'd pay shipping to 55344.

    Good point, my guess is he's being committed to a sanitarium at this point...

    Cool, wonder if JP4 still owns his, he tracked his RS 6 even more than I did.
