RS4 - Sedan vs Avant

Hi all,

Just wondering which is more popular or the 2 variants and why?

Most the pics i see here are of the sedan and just wondering if the avant even came into consideration at time of purchase.

The avant does look very aggressive and does carry on from the old rs4 tradition so just curious.

Cheers,

Julie

In the US we don't get the RS4 in the Avant unfortunately.

Julie -

I think if the Avant had been available in the US, my guess is that it would be 50% sedans, 50% avants. There are a lot of us here (myself included) that would have preferred the Avant.

Audi makes the best looking wagons by far. The BMW 3-series Touring isn't bad, but it's still not as nice as the Audis. I'm a little biased since I also have an A3 Sportback.

I agree with Chris, if the RS4 Avant was available in the US I would also purchase one. I currently drive an 04 S4 Avant and love it.

I like the avant, but I would only buy one if I needed the extra room.

And I think you're right. No more posting for me right after I get out of bed.

I'd get the avant in a heart-beat, I also like the vert, it's just so balleristic.
