3.2 auto/manual and 4.2 auto/manual in order bank

Spoke to an Audi Brand Specialist in Atlanta about an hour ago, and she said that in the order bank, the above choices are present. No details on pricing or delivery yet. So does this mean we ARE getting the S5 as well? April, can you comment? Anyone??

Offering the 4.2 in the regular A5 would be interesting, but I wonder what power level it would be at? Audi needs 300hp out of the V6 to stay competitive with the 335i and G35C. The Roadjet suggests they can pull that off, so where does that push the power levels of the V8s? 340hp in the A5 and 390hp out of a valve-lift 4.2 S5? Who knows, but I'm definitely interested.

Hmm, wonder what she meant then. I'm pretty sure she said "order bank." Wouldn't the order guide and the computer order bank entries be out at the same time? I did like hearing about the manual transmissions though.
