Default RS4 discontinued?

My dealer told me the RS4 will be discontinued after this year's production. A friend pointed me to a fourtitude.com article that says that production will continue:

What have you heard?

Default Production of the RS4 has stopped. Dealers can no longer order them. All tooling is changing

over to the new B8 body A4s. In time we'll see a B8 RS4:-D

Do you know what the specs on the new one will be? Diesel?

It's way too far off - but it will not be diesel (RS4 that is)

Default Yeah, we're probably a year or more away from even semi-creditable rumours floating around

and a couple of years from seeing test mules.

Default My RS4 arrived on US shores a few weeks ago VIN ...2403

I wonder if it was one of the last ones? I know it had been sitting at the factory for 3-4 weeks waiting for its boat ride. What are some other later model '08 VINs out there?

It will be a bio fuel / hybrid like a Prius but be really fast
