It is only available with a 6-speed

Rock, awesome choice! It looks gorgeous I'm hoping to upgrade to that within a year or two

congrats, you made the right decision
enjoy it
you need to recalibrate your senses to what speed around the corners is possible now, that thing sticks.

I decided to purchase the RS4 for the following reasons:
  • Generally excellent reviews from the auto critics and owners of the car.
  • External appearance.
  • The car is packed with technology (4.2L high revving, high compression V8, Dynamic ride control, sophisticated ESP, Lambo brakes………….nuff said.
  • Audi interior, attention to detail, high-end materials, fit and finish, ergonomics, etc.
  • Exclusivity- 800-1000 cars imported.
  • The car feels like it’s on rails and stimulates every nerve ending in your body. Wonderfully involving and it has an uncanny ability to make you feel as though you're an exceptional driver, even if you're not. As an example, I take a difficult local off-ramp at about 65mph in the E55. Today, I took it at 90mph in the RS4 and felt like I could have taken it at 110mph with little drama. This car is just glued to the road.
I acquired the car for 70++ with a $2,500 discount. I will tell you that it does look and feel like a car costing that much or more.
All I can say is ,Captree!

I have to agree with the exhaust note, music to my ears. I went out for diner yesterday and saw one pulling out of the Friday's parking lot. Wanted to run back to my car and follow him. Good choice rock, enjoy.

I don't think there is any choice. Hot New Car! Just don't forget about your E55, it as well as us will get lonely for you.

Congrats Rock- one of my employees' husband just bought one and I was lucky enuff to get to check it out. Although I have not gone for a drive yet (will soon) I have stood in the lot and watched it drive off and I could not agree with you more on the exhaust note! it is pure music and sex! completely intoxicating!!! I'm quite convinced that it will be my next sedan purchase. I know we're all awaiting the full review

Black is a popular choice for the RS4 but they do also come in Imola Yellow, Avus Silver, Daytona Grey, Misano Red, Mugello Blue and Sprint Blue.

Great car...really like Audi's Quattro ...only thing I'd pick at is that I wish audi would put quad exhaust tips on the RS4's to give it a slightly different/beastly look in comparison to the S4 etc.

The current S4 has quad exhaust tips. The oval exhaust tip has always been a signature of the RS series.

A few more pics. I have the aluminum interior trim that goes nicely with all the exterior aluminum accents. Most all the RS4s that I have seen have carbon fiber trim. The interior lighting on this car is awesome at night.

Love it! Looks great! The silver trim matches nicely with the black interior.

I just installed CF trim in my A4
