I don't know much about the turbocharged 3.0 .. but I do know you can pickup ridiculous numbers with tuning. Keep that in mind when CPO warranty is up .

Yup. This one is for keeps, so I will definitely be looking into that down the road. For now, the thing is just loud and mean sounding.
I'm surprised you didn't go with the new TL-X Aspec ...
Okay, I can't say that without laughing
I'm not touching that, lol. I won't be buying another car for a (very) long time, but the small trucks from Acura are great. If I were on the market, I would strongly consider the RDX.
Is it more loaded up than your A4 was? Did you get the B&O? VC? DAP? Sport Diff? Variable ratio steering?
Did you get FWD because you don't need AWD in your weather?
Most importantly, did you post here before any Audi site?
So, the S4 only comes in Premium Plus or Prestige and the Torsen quattro system is standard. I have the Premium Plus. So yes to B&O and VC (both pretty awesome, particularly the VC) but no to the rest.
I agree, the DAP is a waste of money. Just more tech to eventually fail and if you’re able to keep your eyes on the road and shoulder check/use your mirrors, it’s completely unnecessary.

sport diff would be nice though.
Audi Virtual Cockpit. Still the best looking one in the game right now.
The only option I didn't care for that I absolutely love is the sport seats. They're excellent. I need to get the camera out and takes some shots - and then take some pictures.
Do you have the heads up display? A cool gizmo, but again, not exactly necessary. I’d have to debate whether I’d spend money for it.
I don't. But I bought used and this was the combo I wanted. If I were going new I probably would be like you. I tried a HUD on a Camaro once and I could definitely get used to it, but I don't have to

I think it is some of the best money I spent on my A4. Absolutely love it and use it at least once per day.
Then again I drive in enough traffic congestion that I don’t care about manual transmissions (they are dead already to me) and the A4 is plenty fast; the S doesn’t really get me anything except less efficiency, a bigger hole in my assets, and higher insurance premiums.
Congrats, very nice pick up, isn't the VC awesome...
Isn't there a button on the dash that disables the start stop?? I have an on/off button in the Q7 that disables the start / stop, I press that button as soon as I start it before I even buckle my seat belt..LOL

Thanks! There is a start/stop disable button but I still usually leave it on. The A4 had a clear on/off pressure on the brake pedal. The S4 seems a little more ready to shut the engine off. It's been weird in a few situations for sure.

Mercedes is similar, I've had it shut down while still 'moving'. My F150, light brake pressure would keep the engine running.
In stop/go traffic, I disable it, but at the occasional long light, I don't mind it. It is a lot more intrusive than the F150's system.

I don't feel mine is too intrusive, but no matter how much I tried to get used to it I just don't like it..
