RENDERED SPECULATION: While We May NOT Get The Audi RS6 Avant, What IF We Received An RS6 Sedan

So, it's been confirmed that the U.S. market will not see the Audi RS6 Avant make its way here -- again. It's a bummer but I am sure if you spoke to Audi's bean counters they would say there isn't enough buyers. OK, we know wagons don't sell so hot in America. Valid point.

But how about a sedan?

Audi DID build one for the last generation A6 -- after it debuted the RS6 Avant -- so there is a possibility that it would do it again; however, the realist in me thinks it's probably a long shot.

That's because word on the street is saying that the U.S. market will receive an RS5 Convertible in addition to the RS7. Though I would be relatively confident saying Audi doesn't have a problem moving the limited batches of RS products it brings stateside, I do believe having an RS6 and RS7 would be a bit "cramped."

Maybe it would be enough able to nibble away at AMG's marketshare? Considering that Mercedes-Benz seems to turn out special AMG versions without hesitation and it doesn't seem to have a problem moving cars off its lots, perhaps Audi could learn a thing or two.

I could care less about the Sedan. Why not a wagon? It's so much more user-friendly, better looking, and dynamic.

Are you referring to the "quattro" or large vents?

I'll pass, I just don't find the RS6 exciting.
