this is why i haven't been able to get caught up in random internet discussions about cars since about 2003.

even if the rs8 is a thing (and from the 10 seconds i spent googling it it looks to be one of those rumored cars that people on the internet like to talk about but would never, ever consider buying), it's got to be incredibly rare- and the major reason for that is because it's got to be incredibly overpriced. i'm thinking at least in the six figure range, probably north of 150k. it's that 'r's designation that puts just that little extra added body modifications, wheel and tire package, sway bar end links, and seat stitching that somehow justifies the substantially elevated price tag for audis.

to me, talking to a guy with one of those would prove more to me that he's an idiot if he actually had one.
