    Sprint Blue to be precise:) Well its done, my old S is gone and the RS4 is in. Firstly, I am really sad the old S is gone. I wish I could have kept it but I guess sometimes you have to give up the things you want most. It just wasnt in the cards. She will be missed. Ive been through so much with her, college, trips from michigan to NYC, the car getting flooded when the sunroof malfunctioned, track days, rallies, etc. It feels like I just broke up a serious realationship ive had for 3 years. Oh well, its quite depressing.

    The new RS4 is a totally different monster. The old S actaully felt faster, but I think its because this car isnt broken in and its more refined. This car is def track bread and you can def feel the lambo in it. The car is so amazing. The sound is amazing. Its like a spaceship. Here are some quick pictures. I would have written so much more, but no one would have read it and I am dead tired from driving the car all day. I put on 200 miles already:)

    For some reason the pictures arent loading so please go to:

    wow nice color, congrats!

    how's the handling compared to your old s4? i read the new rs4 is the first quattro with real wheel bias or something like that...

    Its so nice to have 60/40. The new s4 also has 60/40. You can so tokyo drift with this car. Its so easy to kick this car out if you want. But its not like it does it on purpose. If you know how to throw this car around, its like a roller coaster. Handling is a million times better than the s4, but in all fairness, the new suspension hadnt been installed on the S.

    ive driven the s6. Its a NICE car. The main reason I would get one over an M5 or E55 (E63) is for the quattro. The s6 might not be as fast, but it should handle so well. I would seriously consider the s6. I have a good connection for Audis, let me know if you need any help.

    Gorgeous, I had my eye on one, but couldn't justify the price point, but seems like a great car, hopefully I'll be able to come out on one of your guys events next time and check it out.

    the price point is very high on this car. But it is a rare limited production car. Also the sprint blue color adds to the cost. Full loaded with tax and all that fun stuff, the car was about 80+k. I think the car is worth every penny though.

    I don't doubt it's worth it, just hurts me to think I could be cruising in a v10 m5 for slightly more, but it's also quite a different beast, I'll definitely come out to one of those events sometime and check it out, if I can keep up with you guys =P

    Beautiful machine and very cool color. Do you know Sean at Riverside? He's an old friend of mine and I'm certain he was the one who handed you the keys on this beauty.

    I can't wait to see this machine in the flesh. I have the S8 on order (from Sean) and will be his first delivered car. Audi is certainly stepping it up with the new S and RS cars coming stateside!

    CONGRATS!

    Sorry I should have explained a little bit more. My S was modified and produced more torque than the RS (about 20ft-lb more).

    Also the first time I drove it, the RS has the transportation spark plugs in it. The next day when the car was prepped, it felt alot faster. Also the RS is way more refined. The S was much more crude (compared to the RS) and you could feel the speed. In the RS you hit 100 and you dont even know it. Its actually quite dangerously fast. Hopefully that makes more sense. Plus the S weighed about 300 lbs less!
