Certainly would prefer an s6 or rs4 avant but the fact that audi and bmw are not bringing any mid size wagons here stinks...
This thread made me start looking at used s4 avants. Found a 2006 today with 30,000 miles that I picked up. I have a feeling I will really liek this car as my winter wagon but would be thrilled if a new s4 or rs4 avant or s6/rs6 avant came to the US so I can trade up when they arrive.

I don't really see the appeal of a wagon over a sedan. I could see it making sense for some people though, just not me.

First, a wagon flies under the radar. Second, that huge load bay is very handy. Third, it's not the conventional choice.

Fourth, wagons are the sporty choice, weather they are sporty or not. The Jetta is a dull car. The Golf is hot. Any Volvo sedans aren't all that great, but the wagons are just fantastic. And the A4 is cool, but there is no comparison to the Avant.

I really can't put my finger on it, but wagons are 10X better in every imaginable aspect.

I can say I am very exited to pick up this s4 avant but would have no interest in just a 2006 s4 sedan. either you "get" the wagon thing or you dont, hard to explain.

It's "whether". While school is in session, I'll keep tutoring you.

I'm terribly sorry Chris for misspelling whether Christopher. I think I might be slightly off color today. I'll be sure to honor your requests, so you will stand in favor.

Their marketing suggests they can't sell enough of them to break even. (thanks for sticking your nose into EVERY nook and cranny you can find Uncle Sam)
