How confusing will an S Line A4 versus an S4 be? Duh....

Default The Audi S4, if you have the means I highly suggest you pick one up. It's so choice....

Default I don't like it, bigger wheels, minor susp. mods and different colors aren't worthy of the S badge

I think it's like putting the word LIMITED on a vehicle when you know they make 50K+ of them. The big 3 are notorious for this kind of shameless promotion of their vehicles. Just my opinion.

Don't like. Dilutes the name "S" in the other S models.

Default Typical Audi, first the Passat, then the engines, now this.

This is one reason why Audi will never be at the level of BMW/MB.

Default what badge is going to be used? Classic or 2001 S4?

If it is the new 2001 S4 badge, I may want to go over to the classic side.

Default Its for Badge ****** i feel....but then again...real "S" drivers will know when they see "line" next

to the familiar S badge...
or...look at it this way,....fi they dilute the S line...maybe they will being over the "RS" line? its all a name game to me...althought the lowered supsension is something the TT really needs i'm told...

WMB does the same crap with "M" stuff on non--M cars, I guess it works for them...

Default Just like M-Technic (more)

What's the big deal? I think it's cool that Audi is finally offering more performance and appearance options on their cars, they should be commended for that. The 9-spoke wheels are very nice.

As for the badges, I like them left off anyway. I'd rather keep someone guessing than to blatantly tell them what I've got.
