Mid/Late 90s plus options. It’ll be a 110-120k car with options.

Saw a recent post on an Audi Avant group I'm a member of on Facbook, it does look pretty good in Black, and the strange diffuser seems to blend in more..

Thanks for posting those pics. I can now resume my lusting and financial planning. The rear thing in silver was pretty much killing it for me.

Went to see the dealer today to see when they are getting their demo in - Nov/Dec Price point they said to the best of their knowledge will be around 80k incl VAT. They said around 2k more than C7 pricing.

That’s surprising, I expected a bigger uptick than that given previous jump from C6 to C7 and the RS4 pricing. I still expect it to be circa 90. FX is significantly worse since the C7 was launched and we’ve BREXIT to navigate. It’s not a volume seller so I wouldn’t expect Audi UK to stomach marginal pricing.

Cheaper than a C7 Performance? I'd be very surprised with inflation and weak pound.
