If the new S4 follows the S5 in pricing (which can be expected), the same price difference will be in effect.
That's not really true, let's look at some apples to apples numbers...

S5 6MT (base) , White Exterior \ Black Leather = $52,575
335Xi 6MT w/ 18s, Sport Pkg, Prem Pkg, Htd Seats, Sirius, USB = $48,420

The price difference is 8.6% when comparing similarly equipped cars.
