Wow! That is great news, but surprising given we don't know prices.

Default So next batch getting pulled next week?

Will be interesting to see how much allocations increase vs 2008. Do any of you dealers have a sense for that yet?

I Personally think that the increase will be minumal if not the same. Audi just isnt making any money in the U.S. market rightnow, the dollar is to weak. They send most of the cars to China, Dubai, because thats where they are seeing profits.

And what happens if the dollar gets stronger? They make money in the largest car market! To expect the dollar to remain week is very short sided. Audi (VW) thinks long term not short knowing there will be cycles. They can also set up shop in the US, if they want to.

Default "Two weeks" is AudiWorld speak for:

This question has been asked a gazillion times.

It's been asked so many times that it's probably already been asked on this current page.

And the only real answer is "We don't know for sure, yet."
