According to my Local audi Dealer today the factory has closed orders on all A4 models now- this means the new RS4 when released will be the facelift 2020 model year..

I wonder if we will see orders and delivery this year ?,
Sold B9.5 RS4 !! WHY i keep asking ! looking sat ordering another before a new model arrives
RS4 2020 Navarra & Jet Blue Gen 1 R8
RS4 Sepang 2015
RS4 Suzuka 2014
RS4 Cab Daytona 07
RS4 Cab Phantom 58
RS4 Cab Phantom 06

Crazy, also too many to list in between, get board too quickly but hopefully not this time !!

Closed all orders for A4's.... Interesting & disappointing. Maybe the cars are struggling to meet the claimed emissions when tested under the new regs. But that does not make total sense either as the S4 engine is rolling of the production line in the facelifted Macan S.
I really hope that the petrol munching RS4 is not history........ RSE4 in 2020????????

Had an email exchange with my Audi dealer, he said the following.

“Audi are not opening free factory ordering for RS4. Audi have pre specd all 250 cars for this year and I am hopeful to have a couple of cars for late June”

Similar story from Dealer(s) in this market - Japan - no new orders being accepted, no RS4's, no RS5's, EXCEPT for RS5 Sportsback orders.
Don't quite get that. In case of Japan Market the RS4 was 'on sale' for 6 months "max". Now it's not able to be ordered. The RS3 went off the order catalogue list many months back. The new European S4 becomes Diesel variant. What gives??

It 'seems' that there's some issue with production capacity - which is obviously a problem if the case - as it costs so much to validate a new model for each market. If we're talking RS models being validated for sales 'for the purpose of hundreds of units per various market', then something is really not right ....wrong:(

Looks like there are RS4's landing in the UK shortly, spoken to the stealership today and they have 3 arriving imminently, all of them RS4 Sports Editions with varying degree of options.

not sure if all 250 landing in the UK are Sports Editions, but at least there are some landing for those interested.
