Default Brought my new car home on Monday evening

This is the first and only RS 4 sold in the Quad Cities Iowa (dealer sold an 07 on Ebay last year).

The car looks and sounds better in person than what I had imagined based on pictures and videos (from the outside at least). I'm a little disappointed with the interior (looks outdated and many of the controls are not logical, have multiple uses but very odd labels) and the headrests really suck. Luckily my wife is finally convinced the car is NOT ugly (she had only seen a lot of regular A4s and one S4). Some of this indifference is personal taste and being used to our 2002 C32 AMG (decided to hold onto it and not trade it).

It's going to be hard breaking this one in as the car just begs to be revved.

Default Very Nice!

Most women just don't get the RS4, anyway. When I got mine my wife said "It just looks like an Audi to me. I'm glad you like it so much, honey."

Default True, most women dont get the RS4 - my wife happens to be cool, she drives the RS4 Cabirolet!

Granted, I bought it for her, but she loves driving it and actually gets how cool it really is.

Default My wife actually picked out my RS4, I had ordered an S5 but my wife spotted an RS4 on a dealer lot.

She said, That one looks sporty and its got 4 doors, why don't you check that one out?. I did and now I'm an RS4 owner. Canceled S5 order. Most women don't get it though, they just think its an A4 with big tires.
