Given this RS7 will come out at around $100k, it is just not worth it to me. RS7 adds some HP and other "fancy-boy" trinkets of high performance.
I was there this week as well. Have to say the Audis were a little lukewarm. They look so good in pictures, but the interior quality of materials just did not seem to appeal to me. BMWs feel more solid somehow, not that I am a BMW fanboy, but just making an observation.

I was also a little disappointed at the Jags and LRs. Their switch gear felt very rubbery and not in a good way.
