This goes counter to everything I have read on this site. Can anyone with a 2011 S4 confirm?

SA's try to sell cars, that is their job. An SA who actually knows what they are talking about is a diamond in the rough and a tru find.

Adaptive are not availible on NA cars, they are for the ROW (Rest Of World) though.

Adaptive head lights are avalable on Canadian models with the premium package. So it is available in NA but not in the United States.

well, the first MF who try to sell me an S-tronic non-SD S4 (I wanted manual and SD) tried to convince me to buy it because "you need SD only when you're going so fast to drift". So, I said bye and came back next time and went to a different SA, the sad look on his face was priceless as we made a deal right next to his desk

This is a shame, I know it's paltry, but I have taken quite a liking to the adaptive headlights on my BMW.

We know the 2010 didn't have them, but their website clearly has them listed for the 2011 model. To my knowledge, no one with a 2011 model has confirmed or denied that they are on the car.

2011 also has claimed to have gone on a 200+ lbs diet too

Default No adaptive headlights on 2011's

I have a 2011 Premium Plus and it does NOT have adaptive headlights. Would be a nice feature but the visibility is great anyway with the stock headlights.

If you are reading forums, you know more about the car than most salesmen.
