A4 2.8 - Price Comparisons

["Don N. Muirhead" <dmr@kwic.com>]

Sorry folks, but I just couldn't resist sharing this.

Wife & I went to Toronto to look at replacing the dead A4.

Dealer's Best Price
A4 2.8 + quattro IV + sport package = $44,000 CDN
plus, 6 month wait on quattro IV delivery

CDN List Price
As per the above = $48,000 CDN

US Suggested List 
As selected from Audi's US handy-dandy website = $30,900 US
A quick conversion using 30% as exchange = $40,170 CDN

Identical car from Audi's Corp Demo Plan (8,500km but with "real" leather)
converted DM>CDN = $34,558 CDN

Damn its tempting - I wonder what the shipping costs are.
