Default My dealer is claiming that the 2010MY S5 Will Have the Supercharged V6

Says deliveries start this fall. Anyone hear the same thing? This conflicts with the recently released order guide which says it will still have the V8.

your dealer contradicts mine. perhaps there are cars still on your dealer's lot he's trying to move via scare tactics?

I don't think he's using scare tactics because I want the V6. I told him I'd take a current V8 if the 2010's weren't going to have the V6. But he told me it will have the V6. He knows I'm talking about the coupe and not the cab.

This is nuts, the A5 should get the 3.0T and the S5 should get the V10.
