Default It's not "order only" at all dealers...there are plenty of RS4's in showrooms right now.

however, I wouldn't be surprised if dealers try to sell it for near MSRP less gas guzzler! But they'll still rape the owner on the trade-in value!

Default I think the drive-off depreciation is about 8-10%, sometimes higher, for a limited production car.

That would value the car at about $67K. Some states (NV, AZ, etc.) do not charge sales tax on used cars so you could save some serious money when compared to a new one at MSRP of $73520.

I would be wary of a used RS4 at this point. How was it broken in? Why was it traded in so early? Was it one of the early lemons we have heard about? By the way, the AFS 12 month/12K residual is 80% on the RS4.
