I dunno, i dont think its worth buying new anymore. I mean why should i get a new 330ci thats $43k when i can get one for $32k with only 15k miles on it. Everything has a warrenty so i dont care.
Plus nissan has a horrble resale value, i wouldnt even bother buying a new 350z.
Anywho i found this s4 today!! Its black on black fully loaded even with navi!! Its a 2001 with only 17k miles!! Guess how much? $30k!!! Woot. And its audi certifed so it has a warrenty!! I put a deposit down but im the 2nd buyer to this car.
Some other person beat me to the car and left her deposit. I hope she backs out for some reason.
blxmjx, you scare me man

jizzal,
all you gotta do is buy a spare ecu and chip the spare ecu. If you need to bring the car in for any service or warranty work you just swap the stock ecu back in. Just make sure to get a vag-com so you can clear the low voltage code.
Believe me, s4 is no fun w/out the chip. I noticed a night and day difference when i chipped mine. The downpipes make a big difference too tho.

b. true all around performance goes to the s4 as well. awd owns rwd when it comes to shitty weather. and i know for a fact the winter weather sucks in chicago. in so. cal maybe your arguement is valid, but not in jizzies case.

A simple $350 apr chip brings you up to 318hp and 380 ft-lb's of torque, and you can even turn it on and off as you please. my friend has an s4 w/ the chip and its just insane in the membrane

S4 baby..
python2121: I think the APR chips are more than $350.00 They're $599.00 + expenses for more programs if you want them.
