Default If rs4 is in production stage does this mean its going to be a launch car?

Because if it was part of the next batch why would it be in production already?

In production usually means its on the assembly line..or just going into or out of it...

Default "In transit" is a better indication it's a launch car

Mine is listed as in transit and its VIN indicates it was the 210th car made of that build (e.g. US spec) at that plant. If there are supposed to be 250 US launch cars and if you consider they made some before that (like the ones being driven at the Streets of Tomorrow events), then they probably have already made all the US launch cars.

Dunno, I'm just guessing here...

Default If no VIN number, my guess is not a launch. Plus the last 3 dig should be 250 or less...

saying all this with a modicum of certainty. -Pete
