No chance on importing it. If it had a more-tuned 2.0T, then it might be possible, but not with a 2.5L engine. I don't usually like grey imports unless there's some measure of factory support.

45K sounds better; tough choice. I'd prefer having them focus on a new RS4 than bringing this one here, people just dont buy hot hatches here.

Yeah, no side airbags. What you can do is order them separately. They're not hard to find
