      The last time there was an avant only RS4 the USA was skipped over. That was back with the B5 RS4 and some people still hold a grudge until today (we certainly do). It would appear that Audi is going to release the B8 RS4 only as a wagon and that does not bode well for its chances of making it to the USA. Additionally, it seems it will be sharing the Audi RS5 V8. Kind of boring really, as it should get the new turbocharged 4.0 liter V8. How much longer is Audi going to keep cranking out that same old 4.2 liter V8 which is already over-matched?

        We'll see what it costs. I doubt it even comes to the USA.

        Yay, some Audiboost action.

        Well that's weird. They're going to make an Audi RS4 that doesn't perform as well as the S4. WTF are they thinking? That's like BMW releasing the M3 with a 328 motor and a 328 with an M3 motor. I guess they don't care.
