my gf's cousin had a black TT v6.. i dont know what year it was but its an alright car, (actually, he is in the proces of selling i believe)

but his new toy is a 06 S4...ordered it fully optioned out, heated seats, EVERYTHING,, ive driven it twice now,, i think its a 4.8 or something like that, but they are N/A V8's and it pulls pretty hard for an automatic,, its a nice car, but i cant justify 70K on it

he says it's advertised in the low 13's, all i know is that Audi AWD is some nasty stuff ..lol

floored it on my gf's dirt road and i get soo little spin its almost frightening

I test drove an 02 S4, but I THINK that might have been before it was turbo'd. That thing was a turd man! Felt really slow compared to my old WRX which was stage 2 at the time. Now, I definitely agree, the fit and finish was unbelievable. EXTREMELY comfortable on the inside, wood grain, leather, etc.... and the tiptronic shifting was butter smooth.

Almost, my tuner/mechanic tells me by this coming Friday it will be driveable. I'll have to be easy on it during the ~1500 break in period, I'll only be running wastegate boost. After that it's straight to the dyno to turn up the boost and see what it's got ^_^

I promise I'll keep you all updated on this forum, since street/strip is the only one I really look in. I'll have to race someone right after the tune so it's relevant for here
