Thanks for the feedback guys!! I do know the car I'm getting does have black optic for sure. I think the decision will come down to that option being offered on the 2015 and if it has the same wheel design. If all is the same I might as well wait a few months for the new model. I will post any additional information I get from my dealer.

I agree 100% as long as you aren't wanting the powered rear sunshade!

I'm willing to take the hit on depreciation because I'll at least get the car I want.

I wonder if dealers are offering a "depreciation discount".

Taxmaster

No they aren't lol, but it's not as if I'm not trying. I'm trying to see if maybe they can work with me on the Audi Care pricing. Who knows!

Estoril Blue is gone? Dammit!!

I just wanted to update anyone that was in the same situation as me between buying a 14 or 15. They still have not released the pricing, but I did confirm that the black optic package does indeed have a different wheel. This was the deciding factor for me and my sales rep was nice enough to track down a pic of the wheel. I didn't like the new wheel at all. I'm so confused why Audi would get rid of such a good wheel that were so popular. I'll see if I can get a copy of the pic and post later.

This wheel change has finalized my decision for me. My 14 S4 should be here next week and I will be sticking with that vehicle. Thanks for everyone's help.

Here is the picture I got from my dealer on the 2015 S4 Black Optic wheel. In my opinion, no where near as nice as the previous 5 arm wheel previously offered with this package.

So basically they ditched the sun shades because no one ordered them. They probably would have sold a few more if they offered it in the premium plus cars and not the prestige only cars. Its not like there was anything that prevented from being in one car over the other. Stupid move on audi na's part. I bet you could probably still get it with a special order.

I understand why they ditched the crystal paint . I remember seeing them in the dealer and while they looked good you could already see scratches and it hadn't even left the dealer lot! Sepang is a great choice, not as great as Nogaro but pretty damn good.

At this point the only thing that differentiates a well optioned Premium Plus car versus a prestige car is the adaptive headlights. It used to be Side assist and adaptive headlights but it appears side assist is now part of the tech pack. Makes very little sense to keep two packages setups like this since there is almost no differentiation.

Does that parking assist plus include the automatic parking system? Like it will parallel park for you? Or is just the front and rear sensors (why they didn't give you the option for the front sensors for the last 5 years is a mystery)

So this is what I got from my local (canadian) Audi dealer. PDF attached.

Can anybody please help me with examples of 'UTOPIA BLUE METALLIC' and SEPANG BLUE PEARL EFFECT' ??

I was going to order a 2014 with Estoril Blue, but I'm too late.

My dealer is trying to locate one, but I want a 6-speed, and sport diff, and he's not having any luck.

allow me to partially answer myself.
