Should be below msrp in today's economy. They might try to play the hard to get game

I have an Audi Exclusive one on order, will be my DD.

There are lots sitting in dealer lots these days, as before they were hard to find. I’m sure there can be a deal to be made.

Hope not to turn this into a versus post... I've been looking hard at a +2021 Panamera GTS Sport Turismo and I have to take into consideration the RS6 as well. Hard decisions to be had. I have a friend in Montreal who has a tuned RS6 which will outpace his 991.2 GT2... all nice machines.

Panemera much more than RS6 though no? I prefer the GTS but not the price difference.

Agreed... there's only one in Canada which I like; and it's about 30k more expensive than an essentially new RS6... I'm not looking to buy until the spring, so I suspect there will be more options for me come then.

I looked at one too before ordering the RS6, can’t go wrong with either.
RS6 interior has more usable space which was important for me.

I’d assume you can probably get a great deal on the used Panny at this point.

Buy in February. Dealers will expect things to pick up in spring.

I’m assuming the RS6 you looking at is a non Performance model since it’s a 2023?

Prior Macan GTS owner and now have a 2023 RS6 (not direct replacemen). Last fall I had the choice between a 23 Cayenne GTS no lux tax and an RS6 with lux tax that I had ordered early Jan (just missed the cutoff) and still chose the RS6.

Perfect all around daily and it hauls ***. Cayenne GTS felt super slow in comparison. The RS6 is also a great value. I see base cars like X5s with MSRP close to the RS6 its a no brainer.

Mine is lowered, spacers, and mid pipe. That's all I'll ever do.

I ended up buying an rs6 back in April and sold it 3 months later if you like the idea behind a performance sedan/ wagon I’ll suggest you to forget about it.
I lost a couple grands and ended up with an E63 Wagon
My RS6 was tuned + lowered but even with +/- 10k in mods the car felt slow. I hated it and I don’t regret selling it.
The car looks good but so boring and the interior is not crazy either
i’ll Suggest you to go for an M5 or an E63

I'm looking at the '24 RS6 as well. Styling wise, I'll take it every day of the week over the mediocre looking E63 wagon. The interior of the E63 and that drivers instrument panel that stretches across the dash looks hideous. To each their own.
