wish we could figure out how to buy one and bring it over here.
but we can't do parallel imports any more, and even if we could,
the cost of shipping and federalizing the car would probably be
high enough to make it a waste of time.

guess that's europe.  they're not that expensive to insure here.
despite their power, they tend to be driven by older, theoretically
more mature drivers.  M3s are more expensive to insure.

so what do used RS4s and RS6s go for in europe?
