I just got back from my dealer and spoke to one of the salespeople who informed me that he has 10 S4s that has been alloted to the dealership but 7 are already spoken for. There are 3 more available and can be had for $500 deposit. I was really really tempted.<p>If anyone in the tri-state area is interested give Audi of Bernardsville a call (and no I am not affiliated with them or Audi). They also gave me a pretty cool TT brochure which I have yet to check out.

Great guys...I too have looked at the TT brochure they have...the one with the holes on the cover and the brochure actually comes out..is that the one you speak of?<p>Jason<br>98.5 1.8T pearlescent

Those guys are really into racing. One of the salespeople there, Tony I think his name is, just ordered the Wett chip and waiting for it to come in. We were discussing the speed limiter on the S4 which was cut down 30mph off the top speed for the American market. No official pricing on the S4 have been released as of yet.

CHARLES

Are you serious? Does that mean that the S4 will available nationwide or just New Jersey? Give me more details!

Gramps

Dealer in SF Bay Area says $42,000 to $44,000 with availability in April. Will be asking MSRP.<p>What did your dealer say?<p>gramps...

John Costin

Well we talked about European pricing which equates to about $46K as of now. He said it should be around that figure give or take a couple of grand.

The S4 will be available nationwide but according to him there will only be a total of 450 units delivered for the whole US market. I don't know how that number compares to the number of ///M3s slated for 1999 here in the US. Cris Groos, any comments ?

Not to be the voice of reason or anything, but you should expect MSRP + ADM (Additional Dealer Markup, a/k/a FILTHY PROFIT!).<p>They did this with Miatas and New Beetles (to name just 2), and if the S4 is as desirable as you guys seem to think, expect it here too.<br>

Bernardsville should charge MSRP but no more in my experience

Frank Maassen

My dealer Schulei Audi in Mason City Iowa, told me that S4's were not available until Sept,99 maybe. To cheer me up they gave me the really nice TT brochure.<p>Frank Maassen 98.5 2.8 QMS black, eibach, R28's
