Test Drove Audi S4 Last Night - WOW!
My cousin and I went and test drove an Audi S4 last night and I can honestly say that even though I am a BMW guy, I would buy one of those over an M3 in a heartbeat.
V8, Quattro, 4-Doors and excellent fit-n-finish really won me over. That was the most fun I have ever had on a test drive. My cousins wife knows one of the sales ladies there now, so they let us take it out alone and we had to sit in a random parking lot for the last 10 minutes because the car smelled like burning tires. Once we aired it out and brought it back, they told us to drive it around back because it just sold in a dealer trade. What that guy doesn't know won't hurt him...
Amazing car, no doubt about it...

They are amazing. I actually like the S4 Avant (or whatever the S4 wagon is called) better for some reason. So is your cousin seriously considering it or was this just a joyride?

Funny thing was that we were side by side with a new 5 Series at a stoplight and I know the guy was looking at this car and 2nd guessing his purchase. I have tried to like the new 5, but I don;t think it is going to happen...
FYI - The Audi A4 1.8T with Quattro and Ultra Sports Package looks EXACTLY like the S4 with better looking rims (IMO). You get all the show without the go. However, it's $36,000 instead of $53,000

Never drove one so maybe I'm talking out of my ass. But I think I'd rather have a M3. For Ext styling for sure anyway.

I have driven the previous generation S4 and really liked it but the problem with the new one being a V8 is that it eats gas like its going out of style.

How much is a new 545i? 325HP, 330lf-ft. I know their not direct competitors, but what you give in up in pure performnce with the 545 you more than make up in other areas. And more space for your family, B-D.
Just something about Audi that does'nt sit well with me.
EDIT:545i 6 Speed MSRP = $58,300. Well worth it over the S4 IMO.
$77,000 CAD

My buddy had one for almost 5 months now, and I would say, the car is really nice. Fuel mileage is terrible if you drive hard (or not). Anyways, the car handle beautifully. We've brought it down to autocross a couple of times and it's doing okay. My bud still trying to get a hang of it. Sweet engine sound!!!
