There's only ever one RS model in production at a time, so the new A4 comes out, you get the RS6 but no RS4.
It's why there was no RS5.

RS models are usally made in the last 18-12 months of the models life, and audi have not made the RS4 and 6 at the same time iirc, as i "think" they share the same production line

Not sure TBH, it was dark. But it really sounded sweet, was a nice deep rumble. Looked the business too fro what I did see, had the nice fat 5 spoke alloys that a few S Lines have.

I see.
They should stop doing that then I think the world needs a full Audi RS range at the same time

Supply and demand, exclusivity etc etc etc, all reasons not to do that.

I didn't quite see the front, it drove past me and I turned to see the back end passing by.

RSTT would be IMO
350bhp with a 90% biased towards RWD
