Awesome car. Love those! My mother has a C4 A6 Avant with the 2.8. The 4.2 definitely seems like a lot more fun, haha!

^True statement although that would be equivalent of me importing a stock euro spec T5 or R to the U.S. My car was bought in a dealership in CT and its the only stock manual 850 Turbo (not T5-R) in the US from the US market lol. Not something to brag about, a stock T5.

This summer it will lose that status.
