Hi all,

Does anyone know what's new for the '08 MY? It's safe to assume that the 4.2 V8 FSI is staying in (since they're putting it into the R8 as well), but are there any new packages/options available? I heard of the (I think) Titanium package that comes with darkened rims, but what else is coming? Is the price staying the same? Considering that dealers aren't being flexible with "leftover" '07s, it probably makes more sense to wait until the '08s become available.

Ipod integration, Audi Exclusive paint and interior, titanium package, cabriolet, I think thats all

Where are you located? I think they are being flexible on price, but that is a relative term.

MSRP is now $66,910, but since Bluetooth and Sirius Satellite radio are standard, the Premium package has dropped to an even $4,000. MY 2007 MSRP was $66,000 and premium package was $4,700, so hardly any price increase for 2008.

MSRP - $66,910
WIP - Premium with CD Changer - $4,000
WPX - Premium with iPod Interface - $4,000
PQE - Titanium Package - $750
PYP - Audi Exclusive Package - $3,800
UF1 - iPod Interface - $250
4X4 - Rear Side Airbags - $350
Gas Guzzler Tax - $2,100
Destination charge - $775

and all the local dealers are sticking to MSRP basically. One dealer has a slightly used dolphin gray (3k miles) for 69.9k and claims that he can't do anything about the price because it was a trade-in and the car cost them 68k.

What's the Audi Exclusive Package? Someone mentioned that it's a diff paint -- I'm assuming there's more to it for 3.8k?!

I had the same questions two weeks ago when I was trying to decide on the options for my 2008 order and some of the other members pointed me to some pictures on the web (and I found some others too). Suffice to say, everyone's tastes are different, but after seeing pictures of the Titanium Package and Audi Exclusive Package, I decided they weren't for me on a Daytona Gray RS 4.

Here's a link to some pictures: http://www.fourtitude.com/gallery/gallery2.php?mode=album&album=/Events/New%20York%20Auto%20Show/2007/Audi%20Show%20Photos#

This is the wording form the 2008 RS 4 Order Guide - Options: "Audi Exclusive Package from quattro GmbH (requires WIP or WPX) (n/a/ with 5TG) Black silk nappa leather seating, Crimson red seating inserts, Crimson red door trim with silver Audi Exclusive Badge, Crimson red piping on seating edge, Floor mats with RS 4 logo, Crimson red contrasting stitching on steering wheel, shift cover and emergency brake, Piano Black interior trim"<ul><li><a href="http://www.fourtitude.com/gallery/gallery2.php?mode=album&amp;album=/Events/New%20York%20Auto%20Show/2007/Audi%20Show%20Photos#">2007 NY Auto Show</a></li></ul>
