Low volume = little wiggle room???, maybe not
Another figure that I seem to remember (from the CD article?) is that the S4 will account for about one in eight of audi's 4-series US sales. Using this figure or your estimate for volume adjust ment and assuming that negotiating from 12% to 5% margin is reasonable for an A4, would amount to only a few hundred $ under MSRP for the S4. Maybe this is a too simplistic.
On the other hand...any sales of the S4 could be looked at as gravey on top of the typical S4 volume. And if the car is coming in sold, its not going to be hanging on the dealers balance sheets, and will not require lot space or rep time to move. So, it seems that there's a good argument to be made for negotiating within a comparable window as the A4. Lets do it!!
