of the 22 currently for sale on the Audi website, NONE have the Recaros. I know, because I was very sad and checked.
RS4 B5. Where it all started.
RS6+ Never to be replaced.
Replaced by: 997 Turbo. Didn't like.
Replaced by RS6. I like(d).
Land Rover Defender. Not as nippy.
Back with C6 RS6
And again C7 RS6

Here are a couple of pics of the Recaro's that come in the U.S. spec cars. I think that these are the seats that you are talking about. (these are the seats that will come in my car ---> TRADE????)

I must admit, i really do like those Recaro's (same as what you get in the S4) and the white piping on them looks fantastic!
It'd be a very tough decision at the end of the day..

Yep they look good, and I would have defo ordered if id seem an RS4 with them in. Can any of the UK owners answer me as to if they have the RS4 logo as above in piccs or was it just on the U.S spec cars as above where the bucket was not an option?

Also on the plus side for the Recaro's is the option of having half leather/alcantara (both black

), which am i right in saying is not an option on the buckets??

My cab seats have the RS4 logo embossed in the so I would assume the saloon / avant probably have too.

Cheers,

The saloon uses a twin pinned style of fitment to the body (like the 997) but I agree why not have the same option as the Cab!
