I just put a deposit down on a Daytona Gray RS6. I am pretty excited, yet I'm not 100% sure I am making the right choice. As a repair shop owner, I can handle most any repairs, but the miles aren't what you'd call low..

The car has 72,300 on the clock. Body is good, although the front bumper had some peeling due to a poor repaint.The dealer has agreed to fix it. Clean title and carfax, one owner. DRC was replaced in August of this year.

I am an Audi specialist, but I've never worked on a RS6. I don't understand why I'd need to change the timing belt so often on the 4.2TT versus the standard 4.2 NA. Can anyone explain the reasoning there?

Anyway, the car is pretty darn clean, other than the plastic on the inner door handles peeling a bit, and a line of pixels on the radio is out. The peeling plastic looks like hell, but otherwise the car is tight.

As I looked under the car on a lift, I noticed an oil leak coming from around the passenger side front axle, where it goes into the trans. I couldn't tell in short order whether or not is was the valvecover or the transmission itself,as the oil was clean, although the dealer said that he would fix that as well.

I am paying 23,000 for the car. What do you guys think?

I look forward to participating on this forum, as I have on audiworld in the past.
