Am I reading this correctly that a 2000-2001 RS4 can be imported?

Audi  	A4, RS4, S4  	8D  	2000-2001  	400  	   	   	NHTSA-2002  	11847  	 
                 ^^^^^

Anyone know where 'substantially similar' is better defined, as used in:
"substantially similar U.S.- certified motor vehicle of the same model year"
 
I am very curious why a manual vs. automatic is not substantially
similar, as I am sure we all are :-)

How far does substantially similar go, like what does fit under this
clause, and why does transmission not seem to fit under this clause?

Best,
