Our market just isn't there; especially for the avant. High option content wagons just don't do well here. Remember, each model has to be crash tested and certified for emmisions; that costs a bunch of scratch.

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the peaple
Living life with Avant...


I would order RS4 avant, if I need avant in US.
Imagine you are the president of AoA.
Imagine you are the vice- president, Johan de Nysschen.
If he noticed gathering orders of B7RS4 avant here and there more than thirty or so in US, he must consider them. I can not ignore the order like those.

Audi Japan imported only 50 B5RS4s. Mr. Johan de Nysschen was the president of Audi Japan then, and he must have decided to import 50 RS4s into Japan.
I believe it possible for AoA and YOU to import B7RS4 avant.

AoA is an importer.

Ordinary importers would import what many users buy. Excellent importer would import what is excellent even if few would buy.

RS4 avant is an excellent car. It is obvious to everybody.

I LOVE the fedners on the RS4, though $75K is A LOT of money. I can;t do used, as I need sunroof less car, few will be ordered that way.

I am growing tired of the 2.0T, but I may give few tuners a crack at it first.

535xi (if it comes here) will give the S4 Avant a run for its money, luckilly 535xi will be more expensive!

So, I am back thinking that $56K for S4 Avant is reasonable...

Anyone selling one w/o sunroof and with Alcantara... call me!

With the RS6 we were told no Avant's in the US but a few did go into Canada. Not sure why that happened and but not into the US, but worth checking as perhaps a loophole. I do not know if the RS6 Avant can be taken from Canada into the US.
