Gorgeous car! Of course I'm a little biased because it's identical to mine, sans the sport springs. The lower look looks great. How much lower is it, any idea? Now I don't need to worry about getting a digital picture of my car......I can just use this one. (just kidding)

...same as yours with APR chip, warm/cold packages.

Default Damn, those are sweet wheels. Did you buy them through your dealer?

Of all the Audi "OEM" whells, those are my favorite. Do I dare consider swapping my 16" Contis and "wine glass" wheels (ala A6 2.8) for a set-up like yours?

She's a ten !!! That pic might end my year long search for the right wheel. To many to choose from.

Excellent choice. I also have these Avus on my Cashmere Grey 2.7T sport. I'll post a pic as soon.

I used the Eibach pro-kit and the net result was an inch lower in front, and an inch and a half in the rear. I'm going to chip her in the next couple of weeks so the to do list is getting shorter on her. I'll probably get the short shifter and maybe the rear spoiler, and then I'm done.

I really got lucky when I went to the dealer to talk to them about springs. I got the info on them and on my way out the door I asked if they had any wheels for my car, at which time I got the whole BBS sales pitch at $600 a wheel plus tires. I told them no thanks and he said "wait a minute, I've got some S4 wheels that will fit". My first thought was he is going to try and sell me new Avus wheels but instead he made me a deal on a set of 5 wheels with the OEM tires( which blow ) for $1,800. Pretty reasonable I thought so I snagged them. They had less than 500 miles on them. I was looking at Mille Miglia Spyders with tires at about the same price and I'm equally, if not more, satisfied with what I got.(Except for the tires, which I am burning off the car at an alarming rate) Timing is everything with a deal like that. After I shook hands on it with the parts manager I walked outside and they pulled around an S4 with new BBS's on it that my wheels came off of. They offered me $100 a wheel for my 16" wheels and tires and I elected to keep them.
