Default "just ordered" a new S4?

The link is to a thread on the vwvortex forums where someone claims to have "just ordered" an S4. Hasn't production been over for some time? Or are they still making them if you know the secret handshake? ;-)<ul><li><a href="http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=132591">http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=132591</a</li></ul>

Default There has been some conflicting stories...

check this link:

Maybe Audi is letting some dealers think they are ordering cars, and then only when they try to order a car that can't be altered, then they reply with negative results, but otherwise they just let the dealership think that they are making the car to order.

Something is definately fishy<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/527946.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/527946.phtml</a</li></ul>

According to my dealer (Clair), production of the current model is over, hence no more orders. Got mine off the lot.

Default Ask someone show you a build date after 7/01...

The "built to order" **** is just a dealer getting as close to sticker as possible. All the 02's available now or in the future have already been built.
