After spending a week in Audi's hot RS 6, it became clear that the RS 6 is one exclusive automobile with mind-blowing acceleration and rewarding handling. Only 450 units of RS 6 power were shipped to the U.S. in 2004, and all have found proud owners. At only 100 units, less yet were sent to qualified dealerships in Canada. I was advised today that only one Canadian RS 6 remains unsold. C'mon double sevens, Daddy needs a new car.
