New RS 6 owner from Vancouver
Hi All:
I just posted in the S/RS forum. I'm the proud owner of a 2003 RS6 that was recently imported from the US by a third party dealer. Up until yesterday I leased a 2009 A4. The RS6 has only 11K on it and is nearly factory mint as it was mainly a showroom piece in a collector's garage. I was considering a 2008 lease return S6, but couldn't walk away from the RS6 after the test drive.
I will pick it up in 2-3 days after I get an independent inspection by my local Audi dealer and will post some pics.
Cheers

Hey! I know which RS6 you're talking about. I saw it on Craigslist and I thought it was unreal for it have such low mileage. Congratulations on such a fantastic car. I would absolutely love to own an RS6 one day.
Hope you can come out to the local Audi meetings sometime. I'm based in Coquitlam and I'm driving a bone stock slow-*** 200HP A6.

As expected it passed inspection with flying colours at my local Audi dealer. Apparently it caused quite the stir in the service bay; the go to RS6 guy there said he has never seen one in this condition. I pick it up tomorrow!

Re: New RS 6 owner from Vancouver
Here it is. Pics don't do it justice.
Its actually not black but a very very dark graphite pearl bordering on black, but definitely different and lighter than a Phantom black pearl A8 next to it in the showroom. However, don't think its Daytona grey either. Anyone?
