yup, but then you get that steering wheel in the new R32 when it goes on sale in the US. Don't know why Audi chose the S4 steering wheel instead of the RS4 one for the US.

Wow, Stevens Creek Audi! I used to get my S4 serviced there, before I sold it.

I did not realize, there were any new RS4s in Silicon Valley. Must have been sold over MSRP sticker?

Audi has turned in some nice project cars lately, yours is a well crafted example of what can be done to a car. Nice photography too.

Yeah I think it was supposed to have a badass Gallardo steeringwheel and chairs but they didn't bring them to America

Still a totally bad *** car.

Quote: Kind of an impulse buy but it is a beatiful car. No plans to get rid of the SLK32 but I just couldn't resist. I'm sure the C63 will be awesome as well but it won't have a manual and I don't really care for SMGs nor can I get myself to buy a BMW. Black pearl/premium package. Love the seats, interior, wheels, brakes, and it drives great as well. No plans to tune it, just enjoy it as a daily driver.
congrats and congrats again
this 'thing' , 420hp , and you call it a 'daily driver'

Unfortunately not, I paid $1K over msrp which I hated doing but the car wouldn't have lasted the weekend. I could have ordered one for MSRP but decided not to. I'd care more if I was going to flip the car but I'll likely keep it for a while unless I have serious problems with it.

Wow, nice, congrats - I'm just dissapointed Audi did'nt offer those cool Recaro Seats & that sweet sport steering wheel we see in the pics from automobile, you can however order those same seats from Recaro & put them in I think.

Sweet ride none the less.

I'd highly recommend if you get a change to drive an RS4, take it. I can't believe how well it handles. I had driven an B7 S4 before but it felt heavy in corners. The RS4 is completely different. You can so easily take corners at speeds that make other cars nervous and the steering is so direct. You may nevery plan on even consider getting one but if you get a chance you should at least drive one.
