It will be very difficult for me to buy any new Audi given these facts....despite my desire for the latest and greatest......

Maybe an A4 3.2 Sedan with 6MT if such is ever offered, but I'm not excited about that prospect...

Audi didn't bring that many over, hard to tell whether availability limited demand or not

ditto that.

I know it's marketing/business decision, BUT...
....No S4 or RS6 Avant = no Audi for me in about 2 years (i.e. new car time)

Default No S4 Avant .. That's sucks! Been waiting for a bigger S4 Avant

After waiting for a bigger S4 Avant, now Audi does not want to bring it here. What a load of horsecrap! First they did not bring the new Allroad .. and now they are going to stop bringing the S4 Avant ... crap . crap ... crap !!!1

Default Yeah, because they were previously too small, now it's a much bigger Avante

Audi strategy has been crazy. Nobody wanted to buy the previous S4 Avant because they were so tiny. That's why I bought the A6 Avant - much bigger space.

Now that the S4 Avant has gotten SO MUCH bigger ... something that Americans want to have (a much bigger and more functional S4 Avant) .. and they are not bringing it in ??? Holy crap !!!!

Wrong strategy again!

It's like the wrong strategy of stopping the allroad from coming in here, when people where beginning to throw away their SUVs and buying cross-overs.
