The Audi S4

[AdrenilineCrash]

I just got a new job as a valet. I love it. I have to say this is my favorite job ever! Definately one of my dream jobs. Besides the money is killer! On a good night, at some of the places I valet we can clear 200 in tips (thats not including our hourly wage). We even pool our tips and we still get 200!

Anyways, I drove an Audi S4 and all I have to say is wow! I feel dumb saying this. I knew the cars were turbo. So I got to take off and I stalled the car cause I was nervous and forgot to take off the e-brake. I restarted it. Then I pull out of the driveway. I kindof pushed on the pedal hard and not much happend. I was like maybe I was wrong. Maybe they arent turbo. So I shift to second gear and instantly I was slammed in my seat! I was like wtf??? This shit is badass!!! Same thing happened when I hit 3rd! Crazy!

That car was so quick! It also had the luxury. I was diggin it. I use to tell my freind he was dumb for wanting one but now I know why. Theyre really are nice. I love the 6 speed too! That was neat!

Why do you need to shift into 3rd while valet parking a car? Are you baiting us? This is gonna end like that Supraforums thread did.

AdrenilineCrash is the reason they designed the low boost setting. :laugh:

 

[AdrenilineCrash]

Yeah that could be.

We were valeting a private party and we had to park a 1/4 mile away then run back. So I had plent of room to do that safely.

At the detail shop where I used to work there was a guy with a modified S4, I hate audis, but this car was sick...seriously. I always did a good job so he would always request that I clean his car when he came through...this car was immaculate. I felt alot of pride that he wanted me to clean his S4, such an awesome car.

Then his buddy got a matching one..2 silver S4's...and they would only let me clean/drive them....i felt like the man.... They were both stick too, and I was probably one of the best 5-speed drivers there..they also tipped awesome



sorry, I just take alot of pride in that

just wait until new s4 comes out... if i'm correct all audi and vw that was 1.8t is going to be 2.0t now... s4 is nice car but i heard around 40-50k mile their turbo goes...

EclipseGSX012: You're thinking of the A4. The S4 uses a 4.2L V8 nowadays.

I do like the looks of the upcoming S4 though - love that new grille:

The S4's a great car all right, but I just don't think it has the character it had ten years ago when it had the kickass Turbocharged 20V Inline-5... a true quattro uses an Inline-5

Yes, I'd sell my kindey to be able to import RS2 Avant to U.S.

the older s4 was a twinturbo 2.7 V6

99+ was, before that it was inline 5. Porsche actually helped build RS2.

theres this black RS2 avant in my nieghborhood...badass! (the guys funny too,he took of the badges..and put 1,9 TDI on the back ..just to get people on the autobahn)

theres also a few RS4 and 2,7 Biturbos around (ever notice that all 2,7 and RS4 are silver????..)here too.. Audis are quick..hell,even the diesels(3.0 V6TDI ) another nieghbor has a green chipped S3..hella quick too

I did .. I used to live in germany. It's not at all like people say. 70% of it has a speed limit nowadays and the part that doesn't has too much traffic to open it up. On those parts at night you can top out your car but that's about it.

There's always Nurburgring. I think they open it to a public once in a while. I always see videos on BMW forums of people running their cars there.
