How "RS6" are you?

[Benman]

I however stretch to afford to buy these things...

Sounds like me.

LOL, who needs to retire anyway.

Me 4.5 out of 6, short on time for the recreational activities - The appeal for me is the stealth factor, the v8 power and the muscular traits of the wheel arches etc. The Avant does this for me. Design No - Fundamentally flawed by too much weight infront of the front axle, Slow in Fast out and not tactile around the tight bends - get the Balance right and rear wheel Drive only - it would then be a Real Beast. Having said that I enjoy my 6.

Barry Daytona Avant.

LOL, who needs to retire anyway.

Sounds exactly like my reasoning right before I bought the
Coming back down to reality and starting to pay off all my debts... sending the last check for the Beast as we speak. Will be wonderfull to have no car payments once again...

[mi021le]

[aarong]

Are you female also?

No. I just have poor reading comprehension skills. Put me down at 1/5

[Benman]

No. I just have poor reading comprehension skills.

It's cool, just means you're male.

OK - 4 out of 6 here - although I wonder what qualifies as "high quality and exclusive sports". Any sport can be high quality and exclusive - just depends how you want to play

[snoopra]

4 of 6, 36, not self-employed.

4 of 6, 36, not self-employed.

As I suspected earlier, most of the responses have been around 4+ out of six. And, some guys like mmaturo are trying to disqualify themselves. For instance, Snoopra's not self-employed, but I would bet money he's a motivated profesional, active in his career whether it's blue or white collar, making him 5/6.

Regardless, Target Market Statements are meant to direct advertising dollars and stereotype the buyer as a guideline, not as a hard rule. It's like shooting a shotgun into the middle of a flock. Few people will be 6/6. Most will be 4 or 5 of 6 if you use the descriptions loosely.

[BigRick]

No children and not old enough... otherwise I should really have one

[KarlMarx]

How about if we get all 6, Audi give us a free one?

No?

Oh well.

[Jani]

I'm "almost exclusively male", since I'm male. No kids, so that makes it 0.5 points. If you count infrequent Ring track days as an exclusive hobby, then 1.5 points. Then again, I can't afford the new RS6, so I shouldn't be any target customer, no worries.

I think they left out "a little bald", "a bit of a belly", "wife can't fit into RS4 bucket seats" and other not so positive things about the average new RS6 buyer.

[gjg]

I'm one out of six... not bad Audi...

Ben

must be the "above average ratio of second and third and .... cars..."

Exactly...of course i never said i didn't want to be 4+ out of 6 (we will leave the age off)...so still is accurate in many ways...need to read the R8 description as it is winning as my new car in 2009 until i see the new RS6 sedan in person (and assuming released to the US).

[Radiation Joe]

Eight out of 6. Do I win?

1) Y
2) Y
3) all relative
4) Y
5) 4 counting the estranged Mrs; two hi-po cars otherwise (compensating?)
6) Y (horses and racecars; again, if you count the Mrs)

Then if you add Jani's criteria, I can add two more points for bald and getting a belly.

If I hadn't been doing this kind of thing my whole life, I'd define myself as being in mid-life crisis mode.

[aussie rs6]

Not to sound like a figjam, I am 5 out of 6 and only my really close friends call me a "tosser"

seriously the beasts value is its power, handling and I love its stealth like nature.

It still has the "wow" factor for me after 3 years driving and 45,000kms.
