Cars looks very nice!

Our Audi dealer mention the A4 gets a full re-do in MY09 and MY 08 is supposed to be a short yearending May. Any truth to this?

perhaps. but the more interesting question is if they continue production of the RS4 sedan beyond the 2007-2008 model year.

It's Avus Silver... I love it.

Dave - I'll get another P-car in the future. And next time I'll know what to order, what to skip, etc.

Awesome car. I would never be ashamed to have an RS4 in my garage. Great car, I would love to have one alongside my 997.

Porsche could definitely learn something from Audi about car interiors, and those wheels are to die for.

Agreed and agreed... For the CF, etc. in my car, Porsche would have charged another $1-2K.

The wheels are going to be ridiculous once I get them black chromed.

Nice pics and congrats on the RS4. I'm a big Audi fan and love the RS4. Saw one in the flesh last year and thought it was great.

I'd love to add an RS6 to the garage. Would look great next to the C2S Cab.

Congrats on the car and sorry about your loss!

I love my RS4 and so do my kids. On the track however it's like a brick in comparison to the Porsche.

who said they understeer? lol


RS4 is one of the cleanest sport sedans out there. If your not a car guy/gal you look at it and go, wow that looks nice but cant really tell what sets it apart. If your a car nut like us you have to change your underwear after seeing them. They look sexy just parked and even nicer rolling down the highway at a good clip. Enjoy your RS4!

Thanks again guys - awesome pic!!

I love this car - it's just so complete. Being COMPLETELY honest, it's a little heavy, has little rear legroom, and seriously drinks gas. Those are not big enough issues for me to keep this car from being magnificent. I just heard that they are going the way of the dodo by early next year - good news for those of us with one.
