As the Gentleman Motorist recently explained, Audi has not brought the RS4 Avant to the United States.  And now, sadly, Mercedes-Benz is bogarting the beautiful C63 AMG Estate.  Accordingly, the Gentleman Motorist has gone full Howard Beale.  Honestly, Germany—puff, puff, pass!  But my exhortations continue to fall on deaf ears.  So read on in shared outrage as yet another motoring masterpiece fails to reach American shores.

In broad strokes, reverse psychology is a technique involving the advocacy of one thing when the opposite is desired.  One can only assume that Audi is trying its hand at this psychological parlor trick by denying Americans the right to acquire its RS4 Avant.  Well, guess what…it worked.  The Gentleman Motorist wants one.  Now shut up and take my money.
