Does anybody know for a fact that Audi will make an RS4 Plus? I'didn't think they would, but I would of never believed the RS4 Cab would be a reality? I thought the RS Brand would be too important to Audi to dilute in such a way - I guess the marketing lot don't understand that!

Mark, I have been told by Audi Development that there will be no RS4 Plus, but I was told that about the RS6. So I guess you never know!!

There is a slip in the brochure about a supercharger, so this has fuelled speculation.

My money is on there being one.

I think there will be one to.

Audi will wait till near the end of the RS4 though and after everyone who wants a RS4 has got theirs other wise people will want the plus instead of the normal RS4.

If the new M3 kicks the RS4's arse then I'd expect it. If not then I don't.

Reading through Autocar, they reckon the old M3 kicks the RS4's arse..... nevermind the new one.

I sent an email a while back to them asking to put forward their argument for being so BMW biased. Didn't get a reply...

It's hard to see where they will get any extra out of the car in all honesty to make a 'Plus'. The RS6+ was just a remap and lick of new paint and trim. Easy enough to do on a turbo charged car, infact anyone with a rs6 could make more of a car than the rs6+ for less money by doing it themselves....

Yes a supercharger would do the job but what price would it come in at??? I'd say your looking at another 10-15k at the very least.

You'd have to be suicidal to have that done within the first 3 years. I'm sure a supercharger would invalidate any warranty.
