New B8 A4 repost - new thread to be unveiled immediately in this forum :-p
But I'll give you points for the Frankfurt unveiling tip. The other post doesn't mention that, and it matches up nicely with my previous estimate.

Lessee, Sept 2007 as a 2008 in Europe, Sept 2008 as a 2009 in the US
give'em a year to shake the initial bugs out of it, looks good in late 2009 as 2010. Excellent, since I am going to lease a 2007 for 3 years. This timeline works for me...

Completely agree, it would prevent me from buying a new Audi if so.
Especially when reports are that the B8 Avant is meant to be particularly good looking...Never mind the chassis improvements.

there's some leeway...
Consider the B5 went practically unchanged for five years, the fact that the B6 evolved into the B7 over seven is not much of stretch for Audi.
Don't forget the B5 Passat ran from '98 until '06...that's 8 years. VAG is clearly getting their money's worth out this platform.
B8 A4 will not arrive until 09.

Re: there's some leeway...
The US introduction may vary based upon competition as well. The new C-Class and updated variants/3 Series', as well as inroads from Infinity may force Audi to push that timeline up a bit in North America.
It's possible we could see a mid-year 2008 release for North America.
