Default Purchasing a 2007 RS4

Hello Audi RS4 owners,

My name is AJ, I'm going to be purchasing a 2007 Audi RS4, within the next week. It has close to 49,000 miles on it. Anything I should particularly be looking at? As far as before purchasing the car. I've checked the carfax, it had 3 previous owners and looks like it has a clean Title. I've being eyeing on Audis for a while now and I'm making the decision to own one but I don't know much about the brand. Can anyone of you be kind enough to let me in on the insights. Any flaws I should be looking at? As far as the reliability and such. Thank you! all. And I hope this will be a great car for me.

First you need to get a PPI (Prepurchase inspection) by either a Audi dealer or an independent Audi shop (You can check the local forums here or in any of the other Audi forums for recommendations for shops that are good)
The two issues with the RS4 is the carbon cleaning that needs to be done and DRCs that leak.

Spend time reading the forum history here to become familiar with the car

Just bought mine 2 weeks ago! I thought about it just like you're doing now and came to the conclusion that: its a 'grown-up' car with 'grown-up' expenses. So far: no regrets. Amazing car.
