Sounds like you've done your homework and know what you're getting into, and you're excited about it. You're on the right track. Good luck and have fun with the new toy. -Ed

Default That's my car

Yep, that's my car! I'll work on my Avatar.

I'm unsure about a non-stock wing, but I will consider new fenders... hmm

Hey, my '87 S4 5 speed was seen by several 928ers and passed on, but I saw a nice car behind some oil leaks and bought it. It is a very nice solid car with a good history and a good future. There aren't many S4s out there that don't need anything. The best ones are for sure owned by rennlisters who are **** and preventative with everything.

Unless you plan on driving over 120mph regulalrly, I'd leave the wing off. I think the 87+ cars look good wingless.
