    Insurance Auctions: One VIN out of commission, another that needs to be saved

    Every once in a while I'll search iaai.com for our beloved RS6's. Found a couple:

    Ouch! Hope the driver survived this one: https://www.iaai.com/Vehicle?itemID=...oadRecent=True

    This one has 57k miles and was vandalized. Someone needs to save this one: https://www.iaai.com/Vehicle?itemID=...oadRecent=True

    Looks like that was owned by BigD2500HD. Doesn’t look good. I’d be interested to hear what happened.

    Odd that the silver vandalized one has only 1 headlight clear cornered. It does smell like a woman scorned mod . Sad.

    Ah man that's terrible. I met up with him briefly when I was down that way a couple of years ago. It's sad to hear stories like this.
    RS6 #1, 01E, 2.5" straight pipes, AMD Stage 1 6MT tune, 460awhp/530awtq on AMD's Mustang dyno. TOTALLED.. RS6 #2, Ebony Black Pearl on black/silver combination with carbon, up and running with 6 gears and AMD tune.

    Read this too, RIP, horrible to hear about it. The combined speeds/forces of a head on did some serious damage, I would normally expect the RS6 to come out a bit better against a Mustang. Ugh...

    Yeah, it really must have been horrendous...A friend of mine was driving down the highway, on a Friday night, a few weeks ago, and a GM SUV came over the highway divider, and hit him, upside down, head on at 60-70mph. SUV passenger was ejected, driver is in serious condition (no fatalities) but my friend walked away without a scratch from his 2014 S4.
