Default What's wrong with the new RS5?

Does anyone know why there are so many RS5's with low mileage on the market? Many on sale with under 4,000 miles. Please help as I have found one I like on sale now.

Default Nothing is Wrong with the New RS5

That seems like a strange question to ask but you got my attention. I have a 2014 RS5 that I absolutely love. It now has about 6000 miles on it and I drive it like I should given the type of car it is.

If you do get any additional feedback I wouldn't mind hearing about it but I didn't notice any responses.

Default RS5 longevity

I have a 2014 RS5 with 4800 miles. I am a car guy with a short attention span and a need to try something new. Prior to this car I had a TTRS and an S5. Nothing wrong with either but kept only a year each. In this price bracket cars tend to have low miles and short ownership. Look at some of the used R8's. That being said the RS5 is an amazing car, the sound at redline and the dual clutch cannot be matched even by an R8. I will probably keep this one longer because of the fun factor. Every time I drive it I smile. Don't worry about why they are on the market, drive it then you will want one.

a short attention span
The lack of a third pedal would start to get to me.

P.S. 2016 is looking very promising, if you care to wait

Thank you all.
