RE: S6 (aka $6)

["Daily,DerekSJMCG" <DDaily@sjmcb.mitsui.com>]

Uh.  Done and Done.  And 200tqw.  And S4.  And 99 A4tqw.  And 5000tq.  And
etc.

Look.  I've said it before.  The S4/S6 are kinda neat.  And yeah they'll go
fast.  But you aren't going to be able to tell me that $35k is rational for
a 4 year old used wagon.  Not when I can buy a one year old A8 for $39
(Yeah, they're around).  And if you argue that the S6 is sportier I can't
really argue, but it ain't NO sports car.  If you argue that it's reasonably
priced, I will argue profusely.  2 S6 sedans in CO right now for around
$25k.  Why the hell is the wagon so expensive?  It's a joke.  It's the same
(heavier) car!

I'll take the 200tqw for the low teens please.  Oh, and throw in an urq and
1/4 deposit on a new S4 please.  Come on...
