Default 2009 Audi S4

Motor Authority does it again and catches the B8 S4 in the wild.

Default Begining or end of 2009?

Its a shame that the S4 didn't come out along with the A4 like the S5 did with the A5. I wonder why they are waiting so long. Also, does anyone know whether it will be the begining or end of 2009 that the S4 is released.

Has anyone done a photoshop of a possible S4 yet? The pictures here only really show the 4 exhaust pipes, no other S details.

The S4 should look great though with the large chrome grille and other details when it comes out. It would be good if they gave it LED foglamps, who knows, they may.

Sagging back end, bodies in the trunk or is he stepping on it?

Default Hmm...anyone else...

slightly underwhelmed by this? I know that Audi likes to go "understated" with the S4 compared to the A4, but this really looks understated, with very few cues that distinguish it form the B8 A4.

I'm guessing the front grille and airdam will be different in the production car, as will the wheels, but if this is really it, then I'd be slightly disappointed that there weren't any other visual differentiators.

Just me, I guess.

Can't wait to see what the A4 and S4 Avants will look like.

Default Not really any different than current B7 A4 S-lines vs B7 S4

Small differences. Chrome side mirrors. Recaro seats. Exhaust. And the V8 badging of course

I wouldn't be surprised if that remains the same for the B8 S4 while Audi reserves the flared fenders for the RS4 and other things.
