Would you feel bad about...
Buying and RS6 for a daily and using it in all weather conditions?
I am trying to decide how I would feel about that. On the one hand I feel like hey, it is AWD, that is the reason I am buying something AWD. On the other hand I feel like hey, they importing less than 1000 of these, why the hell are you driving an $80k car in the snow.
What do you guys think?

Well, it all comes down to me passing my exam on the 19th. If I pass I can do something in that price range right now, but if not I have to wait until I can take it again in December.
Hopefully I pass!
