Default B8 S4 Avant Pics

I was on a road ride yesterday when I happened past my local Audi dealer (Regensburg, Germany)...new avant sitting there was beautiful so I had to take some crappy iPhone pics.

It's really a shame we won't be seeing this stateside!

I just don't get why I cant buy this car! God **** this makes me mad. And if your not going to bring it over at least give me the 2.0 in a 6mt so I could mod it.Audi needs to pull their head out of their ***.

right stuff, but very wrong time

with everything going on with the economy and the auto-market, u cant blame Audi for not investing in a risky venture! why bother with a vehicle that most wont even consider - a high-performance wagon in US ?!?! common!

wagons in general dont fare very well here, plus u want Audi to bring a 'souped-up' one, while everyone else is talking about "mpg, discounts, and hybrids"

These pics are just salt in the wound.

That said, lets blame the majority of US car buyers and their weird fascination with SUVs instead of Audi.

The American automotive industry created this monster to circumvent fuel efficieny requirements and we, as a nation, embraced the "I need a glorfied truck with leather seats to carry my family safely" hype.

Still, the sedan is coming, and I'm going to have to make room in the garage

Ya, STi, Evo, M3...they just don't make any sense do they. Whatever. Stupidity on Audi, absolute stupidity. I'm very pissed about this inept decision. Even Toyota brought the Venza! Volvo updated the XC70, brought the new V50 and marketed it with a racing commercial, Saab brings their wagon. Audi is totally misinformed. By your logic, they shouldn't be bringing the q7 at all. (mpg, hybrid...) There is NO logical justification.

Until Americans get over their childhood fears of station wagons, and until Audi discover they can't sell any Q5's you;re not going to see to S4 Avant over here.

I would have bought the RS4 Avant in a heartbeat, but no such luck. Just leave it to conservative ol' Mercedes to bring in the E63 wagon...
