RS4 in the USA?

[Millzy32]

The car that never comes here. Just watched a Youtube yesterday with a stock RS4 vs a Revo Stage 2 S4. The S4 was also TCU Tuned and that allowed it to get the jump but the RS4 caught up and passed from a dig. From a roll though the S4 with the TCU tune took off too fast for the RS4 to catch up. Good video. 0-60 for RS4 was around 3.4 seconds and the S4 Stage 2 was about 3.6 seconds. Would love to see the RS4 wagon in the States and then tune it. Come on Audi.

They gave us the RS6 avant and that's it for now(for performance wagons). It would be awesome to see the RS4 or even just an S4 Avant in the states. But people are too worried about what crossover they will buy next..

If BMW brought over the M3 wagon, MAYBE it would bring Audi to sense that wagons could/would make a killing out here since im sure 80% of s4 owners here would love the wagon version.

You can also get the A6 Allroad, which looks beautiful and I think shares the same engine as ours, but maybe different software. Also I believe it has factory air ride, like the SQ5. There's just no support for that car currently.

There’s also the extremely expensive option that that one guy did. Can’t remember the name but you can google his car.

He took a newer gen Allroad, and did a full s4 swap. Drivetrain/suspension and body parts. I’m sure it costed the cost of a used S4 but hey, he got an S4 Avant

That would be tyler@pacificgerman. I had the pleasure of driving that lovely creation. The work involved was insane. Seeing a completely stripped interior of the B9 was awesome. Full California legal too!

Who want an RS4 avant anyways, the saloon s4 is much classier … plus with hardware mods, intake/intercooler/downpipe) an hpfp piston upgrade with a fuelit bluetooth eth sensor you can smoke the twin turbo rs4. Then if you add a 4 bar map, hyprid turbo like a tte810 your in the mid 2s 0-60 and in the 10s for sure on the 1/4

or just buy an RS4.

I'd absolutely be a buyer if they brought it to the states, but Audi won't.

Me, I would want an RS4 avant. The body is SO much more aggressive than a standard avant. Those RS box fenders are something special.

Count me in!

[scsu]

Me too.

Who in their right mind wants an Avant? I mean cargo space, an engine capable of 9s 1/4’s, did I mention cargo space?

And it looks 100x better than the sedan

Never understood why estate cars are so unpopular in the US. It's become like manual transmissions. Sure enthusiasts say they want them, but rarely buy them. I think the general public prefers automatics as manual is seen as an economy car. Similarly estates are compared to old American station wagons and people just buy SUVs/crossovers since that's all the rage these days.

Another issue is emissions standards. Can't treat a station wagon like a big truck, have to meet car emission standards as a result. It's part of the footprint rules of CAFE standards. One of the reasons SUVs get marketed so hard. Those SUVs have a bigger footprint and like a truck are allowed higher emissions outputs. Basically a much bigger car is allowed to pollute more than a small one. Just one of those unforeseen consequences of the regulations since automakers also have to hit fleet emissions. The easiest way to hit your mark is not figuring out how to pollute a lot less, but to figure out the correct ratio of vehicles you can sell to meet the requirements. Another reason "compact trucks" aren't really very small anymore.

100% false, but let's hope they provide us with the B10 RS4.

[jashford]

I guess that'll do...

guess that depends on your definition of classy. There is nothing classier than a fast wagon.

Just get a RS5 Sportback. Same drivetrain, hatchback, and lots of cargo space.

Audi doesn't have the sales volume to offer the RS4 and RS5 here.

If the B9 RS4 avant was to be sent here, I could not give the dealership my money fast enough!
