New ride

[leftover_salmon]

Sure, not the Maserati GranSport of some SF members...but a fun car nonetheless (and a huge upgrade over my previous one -- a 1997 Nissan Maxima). Now I just have to get the hang of driving stick. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

awesome, enjoy. After many trials and tribulations with other brands, we have become a strict Audi family.

niiccee... still tryin to decide myself between this (in red) or 335ix coupe... good choice going w/ the 19's I didnt like the look of the 18's at all. Also what did u end up going for w/ leather? I didnt really like the look/feel of the 'silk' leather, but didnt see anyother choices. Wish they had something full grain like the Bimmer saddle leather.

These are actually the Canadian standard 18s, which are nicer than the Canadian 19s or American 18s. I also didn't like the silk leather and just kept the standard leather seats with the suede-ish inserts (wish they could've done those in two-tone, but oh well).

I was between this and the 335xi. I thought the S4 was the better deal for what you get (load up the 335 to where the S4 is and it's more expensive) and by far less common on the roads. I test drove both and the 335 felt like a luxury car with a great engine, whereas the S4 felt like an unchained animal. But you really can't go wrong with either.

another reason for the S4... the totally new, revamped 335 comes out 2012 (so I am assuming it'll hit our market around May of next year?). The new S4 hit US in 2010 so its going to be quite sometime b4 a new one comes here, good for resale I guess. That is one of my considerations going forward, regardless great choice, thing looks great!

Great choice. Now you just need to drop that bad boy.
