Good to hear - that would be consistent with what my dealer said. He assured me mine would arrive by end of January so maybe cars really are starting to break free.

Something had to happen as there is only so much space at port to store all of these vehicles.

AFAIK, this is not true. With that said, the S4 is still on track for March.

Is there an order guide for the new S4 floating around yet?

AudiD or Frank_NJ any new updates ? I'm assuming since you guys haven't posted anything that SYMAWD is right and there really isn't any movement.

There's an old joke : What's the difference between a computer salesman and a used car salesman? The used car salesman actually knows when he's lying.

I think that joke might now relate to Audi dealers, though they're on the computer side of this one.

Just got word from my dealer that apparently there had been some indication from the regional rep to the dealers that cars would start to be released this last Monday, but no indication since then that this actually happened.

Because it hasn't happened. One day they will just be released.

Got a text from my dealer last night saying no cars have been released yet. It sounds like he's still as much in the dark as we are which still boggles my mind. I'm pretty sure I won't be seeing my car by the end of the month as they had previously assured me.
