    Cool OK, now I'll post my crazy train return

    I haven't even seen the car yet, but it is delivered, so now I have to post! I've owned it for a couple weeks, title-in-hand, etc. but with the east coast storm and such shipping it from out east took forever. I haven't even physically seen it yet. But in RS6.com fashion I shall say:

    Avus
    Ebony
    RNS-E
    Sound Enhancing Exhaust
    Warm Weather Package
    Carbon Fiber
    All-Stock (come on RNS-E doesn't count if it had Nav stock )
    And last of VIN: 904568 (trans and TC were replaced during its life - surprise, surprise with that VIN...)

    I am pumped to go home tonight! I'll post the awful, car has been shipped in winter, pic tonight, and then one after I wash it this weekend. My wife who took it off the truck and signed for it said you couldn't even see through the windshield or the car for that matter.

    It was owned by a nice east coast guy who lived just outside of NYC, I'm pretty sure he was not on the forum, although I never asked him directly.

    My thoughts so far are RS6+ pedals (had them on old one and can't live without) and probably a custom exhaust from Haydn when he gets his Detroit facility up and running (already started talking to him). I'm not 100% sure if I even want to tune it yet...I probably will but if I do it might be APR (old car had OcT)?

    I thought cmnair took a long time. Hehe

    The dog has grown gray and has arthritis.

    Hell, i have gone gray and have arthritis.

    At this point a b8 s4 may serve better as a daily in chicago....good RS6s are getting hard to find.

    Solar sunroof, powers a small fan inside dash directly, varies depending on amount of sun.

    Rear window powered shade. Button on dash next to traction control toggles shade.

    I guess the rear door manual shades were included also. http://www.audiworld.com/model/rs6/03/03rs6.pdf

    I really enjoy both of these features when it's warm out, very nice additions. Basically just keeps the car cooler when sitting in a parking lot.
    Ace/Edge TC - Tozo Trans - MTM TCU - REVO/ME7 tune - Wagner IC's w/ Venair Hoses - Aux Radiator delete - Hotchkis Sways - Hawk HPS Pads - Koni Sport Struts - Scroll KO4 Turbos - Devil's Own WM - 421whp/452wtq on Mustang Dyno - http://www.audirssix.com
