    How "RS6" are you?

    Please read and let us know if you agree.

    I think a lot of the people are younger than what's described. Gotta be the internet!

    I'm 4 out of 6...


    Though to be fair, their target is male (no surprises there), high income (well, it's not cheap is it?) and with high income you're likely to have another car and those with high income tend to be MDs, executives, freelancers or self-employed ...

    Food for thought? Mind you, I am 4 out of 6...

    This seems like a Marketing Department's "Target" description for advertising new RS6. As a marketer myself, I would judge that it's 90% true for about 90% of the buyers. I also would guess that a used RS6 buyer would be younger version of the same motivated professional but less concerned with "trend setting" or being an early adopter of new-tech. (That's Me!)

    P.S. Erik, I like your new avatar. R U getting an '08?

    If you never exceed the limits, how do you know where they are?

    The thing is, the stealth aspect of the car leads me to wonder about the applicability of the blurb "[the] sportiness of the vehicle must be emphasised by its appearance"...

    huh...0 for 5.
    23 year old, single, employed and well paid but not a director (at the moment, at least) and the RS6 is my first (and only) car.

    though I'd be first in line for the new one if I thought it was coming to the states.

    I wish, but I guess I need a sponsor then... I guess I have to settle for the avatar.

    5 out of 6 - (if you count xc mtb racing as extreme sports) and, unlike many of the 6-out-of-6 demongraphic i meet, i'm not a complete tosser....

    5/6 because I'm under 40 years old. But I am a used car buyer, and like I mentioned, I think this is a Target Market for new purchasers.

    They mention "Exclusive" sports, not extreme sports. However, Mountain Biking, Golf and Skiing are all pretty exclusive since they require a certain geography and heavy investment.

    What's a "tosser"? (Must be New Zealand slang)
    If you never exceed the limits, how do you know where they are?

    If you don't know or never heard of it, you're probably not one

    Bingo...me too, under the age group by a great distance on RS6 number one and will be about 40 when i get beast number two if it comes to the states or an R8. I however stretch to afford to buy these things...

    I am 1 1/2 out of 6...younger, not executive but am a principle now but not when i bought the first one...not very high household income, no kids, divorced, did have more cars (3) now just the one, just get on the track and some golf so not all that exclusive sports (1/2 for the track days counting).

    I think the new RS6 is a car for real car enthusiasts,and have the money to afford it,who will only accept the best there is..I'm defenately such a person,I have a distinguished car as well,but it is much slower and less expensive,but I'm proud I bought it from a person who also don't satisfy with anything less...If I had the chance I bought a RS4/RS6 right away..1 thing is for sure,I'm going to beg him to let me drive for a ten min. I had a drive in the former one,so I have a little hope I wish everyone all the best with this supercar

    I guess I'm a 5 out of 6 since I'm 20. I would agree with those statements, because that's basically why I have an RS6.
