I'm getting it from all angles. I even have someone willing to foot the bill to get it done.

One of the main reasons I went with a '13 was because of the mid-model changes like the flat-bottom steering wheel. $10k sound good?

What's $10k between fellow Audi friends?

Considering where I came from the S4 is a driving experience unlike anything else I've tried. I don't change cars often but giving up my last car, a '06 Acura TSX, was hard to do. That car had bulletproof reliability, great gas mileage and looks that aged very well. But, it was also a four cylinder with 205hp which was fine to take me through the entry of my professional career.

Fast forward to today and I can't stop thinking about the next time I get to drive. Be it 5 miles or 50, after 1 week of driving the S4 appears to be the perfect sedan for me since I always exit the car shouting superlatives.

I have always loved the understated appearance of the S4. Those that know the car understand its power and agility but those that don't aren't blown away by it which is fine with me. This car gives me exactly what I wanted: a somewhat average Joe appearance that leaves me grinning from ear to ear.

Thanks guys.

Since posting this I have had the front wrapped in XPEL Ultimate and a coat of Opti-Guard applied to the whole car. If the Opti-Guard continues to bead for years like it did yesterday during a wash session, I'm going to be one happy customer.
