I just noticed that schitts has an RS6 newly listed!  
I might pick up the A4 and go right to Schitts and trade it. J/K  
Too bad Schitts is the worst Audi dealer in the free world.

The chevy dealership on Milestrip had a red RS6 on their lot 2 days ago. i would be willing to be that its still there. It wasnt tagged or anything So I have a feeling that it was Brand new but I dont know why it would be at the chevy stealership :gotme:

Yeah, it’s got the sport package and leather.  
It does not have power seats which awesome because I could never get the power seats low enough for my tall frame.  
The car has some cosmetic flaws but the beauty of silver is that it hides the flaws pretty well.:snky:

1.8t never came in leather. It’s leateret in other words fake leather. Only 2.8’s and S4 had the real deal :fyi:

I can’t seem to program the garage door opener.(Yes I have read the manual)

Can I reprogram the car so the mother f\*\*\*\*\*\*g doors don’t lock every time I start the car?

Is there a way to tell if the ecu has been reflashed without driving to Salisbury?

It is originally from New Orleans but, Why does the car smell like salt water?j/k
