Default Xenons

Will Xenons be offered on the 01' 1.8Ts as an option, not at all, or standard. So far, I have not gotten a clear answer. It seems like all car companies are putting xenons into their models (even the cheapest cars). Audi is really taking two steps into the past if they will not even produce xenons for the A4

Please help me clarrify this

Default Re: Xenons

I have it in print from Audi that they will not be available on '01 1.8T's. The model year has not yet begun, however, and Audi may well change their corporate minds. Probably won't know for absolute sure until after 5-1-00, when '01 production begins.

Default Patience is a virtue....

Once again the early reports cause the most misinformation. It's great to get the advance notice, but it also causes many assumptions. I don't know that anyone knows for sure if Xenons will be offered on the '01 1.8Ts...Just be patient and don't jump to any conclusions. I don't like the idea, but not having Xenons would not be a very big deal (for me).

Default Hmm, not according to Edmunds.com - The Tiburon has halo projects

Sure they weren't aftermarket??

Ahh, if it's not true we will see it eventually.

Default Right...

But part of the debate is word that Audi came to their senses that will bring back the Xenons...

As Monkeyboy says, only time will tell...

Default It's still there...

I moved my opening page graphic to <b>BEST OF | Graphics</b>. This was done to speed the initial load a bit and because I was reaching a limit with my ISP since each visitor had to download that opening graphic.
I intend to add some wallpapers (using my limited Photoshop skills)to the best of section, as well as adding more FAQ and additional details.
Thanks!<ul><li><a href="http://www.mindspring.com/~thomapa1">Monkeyboy's A4 page</a></li></ul>

Default Who needs Xenons -- just drive with your high beams on!

They ought to ban the damn things, they're a hazard.
