Umm, he wouldn't have the only S6 Avant in Canada. I do know of one other...

Here's a scenario where it almost makes sense.  You you pine for an
Avant, making one of your own is really the only way up there in the
Great White (illogical-car-rules) North.  I guess the same could be
said of RS2 cars - take a Coupe, and let the wallet rape begin!

Dave, I can see you with a Europa over Ecru RS2'ed Avant, and having,
essentially, the only S6 Avant in Canada.

But I will still be of the opinion that moving the AAN into some
prosaic C4 car, unless it's just for the challenge of doing it, makes
very little sense.  Especially in the U.S., where we can play with all
the Avants we like. :sticks out tongue:

All that having been said, I really wouldn't mind a Coupe Quattro with
an AAN.  That car would be a monster.  :)
