Just visited dealer. One new RS4 will be availabe in Moscow late October, early November 2005. It is sure now, that it will come with fiber-carbon keramik brake rotors and pads. Price in Moscow is expected to be $120k (RS6 is price listed $139k here).

Now the question wich is still not answered - will these new fiber-carbon brake rotors and pads fit our old beasts ? If they do - it might be a reasonable alternative to Movit sweets. Also it's know for sure that in nearest future A8-W12 will also be shipped with fiber-carbon keramik brakes. Looks like Audi eventually acknowledges indirectly that RS6 and W12 brake systems are simple BAD and need a replacement.

Trying to imagine :rs6kiss: with carbon-keramik brakes ...:race:

Carbon Ceramic Brakes is NOT an option in Europe or the UK.

They already have the RS4 order guides readily available ?

Why would Audi offer CCB's in Russia, if not in Europe or UK ?
Is there some new Autobahn there we don't know about ? :D

There will NOT be CCB's offered on this car.

The next S8 and A8L W12, will be the first car Audi offers CCB's on.

They've already stated that in a public statement.(press release)


rumors, rumors, rumors......

In the Netherlands the price of the RS4 will start by € 106.900,-.
I have not yet seen a order list and don't know what is standard on it or what are options.
But i rekon that it wil cost me ± € 135.000,- with some options. :confused:
