    I would guess that an RS6 Avant is even more rare than a 2004 RS6, can you post up some pics for us?

    Never released by Audi of NA in either Canada or US, but common place in Europe and the UK.
    '02 S6 Avant Silver - Pokey | Carbon Black/Ebony RS6 w/ stuff - darn quick | '03 Daytona Grey/Ebony RS6 w/ more stuff - quicker yet | '91 NSX CDN issue with 6spd & BBSC - quicker yet and then some | '87 Buick GNX OEM clone w/ lots of stuff - quickest hands down

    As requested a few pics of the RS6. The first pics show the stock silver wheels. Car has very low miles but the gentlemen that originally owned the car used that wheels as parking feelers, so when I refinished them, I did them in a hyper silver which looks black in the photo but for the purpose of description think candy silver over black. I think it gives the car a bit more of a sinister look. As with the RS6 sedan, this is still a great sleeper as most don't know what it is.

    It will be getting a 6 speed manual latter in the summer. My turbo guy will give the stock turbos a little internal work while the motor is out, down pipes and that is all the mods. For what the vehicle is it does not need anymore power. I have a few big power vehicles that are also lighter if I need to get a velocity fix. Have to put a plug in for Steve's adapter kit. The machine work on the flywheel is world class.

    Nice. Is this the one from Shokan Auto? Only a few of these true avants in the states right now. There is also PW's old silver one. What's the import story on this?

    Rick - very jealous of the car, and the fact that you don't have to run a front license plate. I guess it's not quite an even trade for having to live in Michigan, though... Seconding question from Turbowned, is that an S6 conversion or imported and legalized? Would love to know the total bill for legalizing an RS6-Avant!
