Default New meets old...

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/82232/jpdavillars41.jpg"></center><p>Installed our STaSIS Ohlins kit on another lucky B7 RS4 yesterday. As we pulled the car our of the shop, realized that we had two generations of RS4's poised on their new Ohlins suspensions!

Default is that a real B5 RS4 or a converted S4?

the mirrors look chrome in the picture, not matte aluminum as they should be. non-standard wheels also.

Default honestly, my first thought was that a real B5 RS4 shouldn't be here in the US.

but I know there are a handful of them here, so I looked a little closer and noticed the mirrors. seems odd that the owner wouldn't change a minor thing like that after making so many major changes.

Default interesting....he lives (or lived) in Austin at one point, didn't he?

I think I remember meeting him at an event here once....when the new dealership opened in SA, IIRC.
