Default WOW - that is all. (She's home)

<center><img src="http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/7761/img0431smallog0.jpg"></center><p>Yet another pic of some1 getting their RS4 Must be getting old for some, heh.

I picked it up at night, and was so excited I forgot to change the ISO setting on the camera, hence blurry pix I'll get some real pix up after the tint job next week.

I have never met so many 'friends' on the road in such a short time. On the way home, I had at least 2 SUV's taggin along, and of course, a black A4 who egged me on and waved

Coming out of the toll gates tho, WOW does this thing build revs freely and quickly.. hit 7k accidentally in a fraction of a second it seemed. Gotta calm down a bit til she's broken in.

Verdict coming from someone who used to just have a 'regular' car (IS300 215hp/tq) = absolutely amazing car. Even the stereo is better than I expected after everyone talking smack about it (by the sounds of some people, I expected a clarion $99 job).

I'll post more later. It's 10pm and I gotta go driving some more !!!!

Default Oh.. and an interesting confirmation from my salesman (for what thats worth)

When orienting me to the car for 5 mins my sales guy told me, and his techs also told him to tell me, that the car will not feel any faster than an S4 until about 1k mi. And it won't really 'open up' until 7-10k mi. That pretty much sounds like what someone else on here was saying.

Default Once you break 5500 rpm....a completely different beast

While it may not feel that much faster upto 5500 rpm, once you bust that, it starts to roar......and feels remarkably faster
