I had now idea that Audi was making an S6 wagon for '95.  I haven't heard 
of or seen anything from my local Audi delearship that would suggest a S6 
wagon. 
I've just purchased the S6 sedan in March of this year.  It is a very 
fast and phenomenal vehicle.  The quality of this german machine is 
unsurpassed.  If you have the opportunity to get one, I highly encourage 
it as you will be driving one of Audi's ultimates!!!!

Hey, what are the stats on the S6 wagon as compared with the regular S6? I 
would imagine that it would be a few ticks slower to 60 mph, considering 
the extra weight.

If anyone knows, let me know.

Thanks.
