FYI,
Seem to be a few of these in the Chicago area in this price range. just a quick search on AT.

Five others. All of which have higher mileage (and higher price) and do not appear to have extended 2 year warranty. $35k seems to be a fair value but willing to take offers if better deals are out there.

Best offer over $30k takes it, should be close to $35k. Someone is getting a great deal. Original MSRP was around $85k including gas guzzler/luxury tax.

Thanks for the value-add here. I really only plan to sell on autotrader/ebay as must people on this site are broke kids. Not always true but most people with money don't search for sale sections of random car forums. Figure I would list just to see if anyone was SERIOUSLY in the market, not just people who like looking at pictures and dreaming.
Lets be honest. If you are SERIOUS, have the money, and in the market for an RS6, you are not going to let a lack of visuals prevent you from buying a car. I will get pictures up for autotrader ad but please dont ask again. Drop a pm of call (630-207-3263) if you are interested. Thanks.

Pictures are not meant to please people who are only looking for RS6s, in that situation, you are right. They know what they look like and pics prob won't help or hurt. However, by posting pictures, you are opening the door to on the fence buyers. Buyers who are looking for a (fill in a list of adjectives here) car with XX,XXX amount of miles for $XX,XXX. They are open to any car and may be surfing here to find something they may not have thought of on their own. So by seeing your hypothetical pictures, one might say, "Hey, I remember the RS6 now, nice looking car, I think I'll buy that." Case and point.

Not trying to be smart here but the car does indeed need a 35K service... This service includes changing all the belts including the timing belt and can run any where from $2000 to $2700 
Have you had any issues with the DRC ( the suspension ) system yet.I have heard it's not only expensive to replace/repair but it's an ongoing issue with this model and the best cure is to go to coilovers..
I test drove one the other day ( 34,000 miles ) and although the car was pretty quick and sounded great but i felt like sitting on the seats not in the seats.....wasn't impressed...
Good Luck..

No pictures at the moment. This is a standard RS6. Only aftermarket part is rear darkened tail-lights but I have the originals as well. If you are looking to buy an RS6, you should know what it looks like. Condition is clean for a 33k mile car except for curb marks on the wheels.

A) Belts should be changed at 50k miles. Dealer of course reccomends earlier as its a profitable service but this is not a Ferrari.
B) DRC is a problem on most RS6s. I has the entire system replaced under warranty. Coilovers is a better way to go but I want to keep the RS6 stock and from the factory. Suspension handles VERY well.
C) Keep in mind this is a AWD four-door sedan not a 911tt. I have an 06 M5 as well and RS6 drives/feels much sportier and tighter though a bit rougher on the roads.

My apology. I just get tired of people asking for pictures from people who are not buyers when I don't have any pictures and am away from the car.

Yeah, we are just a bunch of broke *** kids w/ out bus change.
See my sig? all of the cars were purchased from or based on this forum (except G 35).
I have also invested in a Private Equity fund from someone I met from this forum (doing 40% a year in profit).
And I venture to say that I am less affluent than a large portion of 6speed.
Oh, my Family Doc, Dentist, and (if I can talk my wife into it) Plastic surgeon all were met on this forum. You are not the sharpest salesperson, are you?
