Default I like the interior as well. Sporty and expensive looking.

One of the main reasons I love my A4 is the interior. If it wasn't for the rubbish peeling switches , my 02 would look brand effing new.

Default Won't be coming to the USA. The gas in the USA sucks, needs premium to run on. Maybe they will ...

Bring it to Canada?!

Default Do you run on 94 Oct gas? Is 94 Octane gas available every where in the USA? I don't think so...

Apparently this car with its power output needs the 94 Oct.

Remember all the testing Audi had to do before the new 2.0T FSI came out and remember we do not have the full advantage of that FSI motor on this side of the Atlantic.

Maybe the problem is worst on that more powerful motor.

Default Oh ... okay yeah that would be a major problem :)

I run 93 which is premium here...

My car calls for 91, but the gas grades are 87, 89, 93

Default He probably does use 94 octane

Since it's an Aussie article and they measure octane with the RON method like everyone else on the planet except us (we use (R+M)/2). The latter method would end up 3 or more points lower. So, Aussie 94 is probably more-or-less US 91 (or lower).<ul><li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octane_rating">Klik</a></li></ul>
