Quoted from Brian McCauley @ Audi North Scottsdale, posted at Fourtitude...

"I talked to a contact at the Audi Distribution center today, and the S-Line package will be orderable at some point next week for the next dealer allocations."

This coincides with the information my salesman received from his General Manager, who said that S Lines were expected to be orderable in the mid-September allocation.

so would it be safe to say they should be built and shipped here by December? or is that too optimistic?

I'm hoping for sometime before the end of '08.

My 19" sport package (same wheels as SLine) STILL has a build date of week 40. I had read as had we all that the issue was the wheels, the information here would seem to substantiate that orders will be able to be put into the queue as noted.

I expect my car to arrive about 7 weeks after build date. So, week 47. Nov 17th.

Better order the All Season tires now.

Geesh.

I need to find out if my car has a production date assigned!

Now that you've brought it up, what All Season tires you going with?
I'm thinking Goodyear Eagle F1 A/S from Tire Rack<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR4&amp;url=%2Ftires%2Ftires.jsp%3FtireMake%3D Goodyear%26amp%3BtireModel%3DEagle%2BF1%2BAll%2BSe ason%26amp%3BvehicleSearch%3Dtrue%26amp%3Bpartnum% 3D535YR9F1ASXL%26amp%3BfromCompare1%3Dyes%26amp%3B place
