    Where's my B9 S4 Avant?

    Is it ever going to come to the states? I started looking around after I picked up my last project B7 S4 Avant and was trying to see what the current status was. Doesn't look like it's planned to come over anytime soon. Does anyone know what the story is?

    Keep holding your breath, you can bet I am. I highly doubt it will come.

    From what I understand, have read, have been told and have researched the ONLY B9 Avant coming to the US market is the Allroad - which we're all pretty disappointed in as a decision.

    The closest that Audi will sell in the US are the A4 Allroad and the SQ5. Otherwise, you will need to move to Europe.

    I think the B7 was the last S4 Avant in the US. I would have gotten a B8.5 Avant if I could have.

    Audi is FINALLY bringing the A5/S5 Sportback to the States. I would also like to see the Avant, but I guess they figure they have the market covered with the Allroad, Q5 and Sportback. Everyone is SUV/CUV crazy anyway.

    I don't get the decision to bring the Sportback to the states and not have a regular Avant.
    Then again, I don't understand why Audi chose to give the US the smaller Wagon/Allroad option either. Why the A4 Allroad instead of the A6? I personally would welcome more wagon space in the A6 over the A4.

    Yeah, with the Q3, Q5, Q7 and now the Sportback, it's very doubtful we'll see the Avant here in North America. Sales of the Allroad have been running only 150-200 per month and that doesn't bode well for Audi to bring another wagon into the market. At least for now.

    Yes, soccer moms and dads want to look like they are still in the game, so wagons haven't been popular for the past 30 years. Volvo is bringing a beautiful new wagon to the States, but we'll see how it sells.

    That Wagon is stunning.

    Well I'm glad I just picked up the B7 S4 Avant I found for sale around Boston... Guess I'll be holding onto that one for awhile. thanks for the feedback, I've been disconnected from Audi offerings for awhile.
