Default 2001 models....what's the latest? (wish list inside....)

The rumors I have heard for the 2001 model so far are:

1. White/silver gauge faces

2. Two new (exterior) colors; two of the old ones to be replaced.

I don't think those rumors have been substantiated yet; can anyone confirm, deny, or speculate further about additional changes? Come to think of it, do we even KNOW that the S4 will be offered as a 2001 model?

If there will be a 2001 production model, here's my wish list for some minor changes:

- offer Volcano black and racing green mica as exterior colors
- offer a middle-gray leather (tungsten gray from A6?) for interior
- give the shifter console an aluminum cover to match the aluminum beltline trim on "sport interior")
- white/silver gauge faces
- 2 driver's seat memories
- AVANT!
- Euro-shape license plate holder on the trunk lid, like the '96 A4 (OK, so I'm weird)

Any other suggestions?

Default How about an incremental increase in HP? Maybe 25 h.p. to 275? Oh yeah, and maybe some 18"

wheels and a reduction in the gap between the tire and fender. How about hi-beam xenons and fog lights -- hey, if people are gonna' flash their brights at me for having xenons, I'd like to be able to blind them when I flash them back with my hi-beam xenons . . . ;-)

Volcano Black and 280hp. Also, use more aluminum! Way too heavy.

More aluminum? Sure, and add four wheel steering too, way too expensive

No thanks on the 18". Don't wanna bend a rim every week.
