[s-cars] RS6

[Michael Lardizabal]

I took my E34 M5 out today for a workout and on my way back I ran into a guy w/ a Range Rover Sport SC that was coming towards me....he slowed down  did a quick U turn and chased me down. 

At the light he pulls up next to me . Nice guy. Too young to have seen these when they were showroom new....but promptly remarked how it commanded his attention like an exotic car does. 

Made my day.

If one can find a well maintained higher mileage RS6 thats had all the hi ticket items cleared its an awesome deal. Lotta car for mid 20's money, and dropping  in price weekly.

Just don't DD it .

Happens very often. Last week it was a guy that used to work as a  
salesman back when they were new. He was quite knowledgeable and  
excited to see it. Last month it was the kid pumping gas asking- he's  
got a newer A4 from mom but wants an S4...  Much rarer is someone that  
knows the 500E, but then, they'll do a U turn and chase you down,  
leave a note on your window with their number or walk across a busy  
street to talk to you. I like unique, wish I still had an Opel.
