Michael:

I do not know where you are located but.... there is no shortage of A6
Quattros in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.  In point of fact, every Audi dealer I
went to in trying to get the best price possible on my Audi A4 Quattro
(which has yet to arrive) only had A6 Quattros to test drive.  I think the
sales rep is giving you the run-around!

Hope this helps!
