Re: S4 delayed again

[Dan Simoes <dans@ans.net>]

Rumors eh?

The latest I've heard is:

- S4 is indeed pushed back once again.

- A6 "sport" model with 5sp should appear in US around 2nd quarter 
  (April or so)

- new exterior colors on 99 models, pearl white no longer available
  no tan leather interior but A6 "vanilla" interior will be avail,
  along with other colors

- There is a guy in NJ doing a supercharger kit for the 30v V6,
  using an Eaton blower (similar to Ford TBird SC, Jags) which
  will bring output to around 300hp.  Goal is a price around 4k with
  only 5 hours of install time.  I believe Audi has some hand in this,
  the goal is to create an interim vehicle for prospective S6 owners.

- Non-Audi: Subaru will have a WRX-like vehicle with 250hp or so for
  under 30k in 1-2 years time.

That's all I know on this, so please don't ask for more details.
