New - B8 S4
That's funny I just turned in a 6 speed manual 535xi that was leased. No mods on S4 it's a lease. Surprising how fast the S4 is. Will have you up to illegal speeds real quick without even noticing it.

Wow, coming from a Z06 I have to take your word for it! So far, all the feedback for the B8 has been positive!

Yes it's going to be prestige. If you don't mind me asking, how long did it take you to get your car?

Yeah, I miss the Z what a beast. Had it for a couple years and woke up one day with the itch and got the 997. I do miss that car. S4 just delivers the power in such a smooth effortless way. When you want to have fun the S tronic is ready with very fast shifts.

About 3 months, def the longest I ever had to wait for a car. You may be able to find one on a lot in your area especially at a nice discount. Try the Amex program really nice discounts.

Very nice car. Can't wait to see what the boundaries will be. Thank God Audi got back to what made the S a force to be messed with; forced induction.
But why oh why did you get an automatic?

Had the pleasure of test driving this with the editor of performance car magazine in the uk on Bruntingthorpe airfield...wound it round to about 160mph ish. A brilliant car...super quick, incredibly smooth and just keeps lumping on speed without any fuss. Sounds great and handles fantastically. I think its a real winner!

Very impressive car. Fast and fun. Minor gripes so far no heated steering wheel, no memory seats or self dimming mirrors. Car itself is great. Nice driving a car that I don't see a ton of on the road! Well at least for now.
