Default I do have prob with gas prices, but the gas wasting acceleration of the S4 is worth it!

The S4 may not be the fastest, but it is so cool to accelerate on a sunny sunday morning down an open 2 mile stretch of highway. I hit 120mph on my way to work today without really knowing it. It was that smooth. I was listening to Gavin De Graw at level 10 on the stock cd player. My car is stock and an automatic. Sometimes the gas prices bog me down, but this acceleration and speed stuff is cool...worth the $3 I probably used in the short 1-2 mile spurt.

Yesterday, I was out with the family and a Titan truck was tailgateing me at 100mph. I sped to 135mph (left him) and started to chuckle. My wifey ask what am I laughing about. I asked her, "how fast do you think we were going?" She guessed about 100mph. I told her we hit 135mph and she was like good because she needed to go to the bathroom. Made me chuckle some more.
That's the fastest I've ever taken it.

I rarely take the S4 abv 80mph because of traffic. It is nice to have a car that has power when you need.

I know there are faster more fuel efficient cars, and I think they are cool too. I'm just very happy with mine right now.

Gotta luv fast cars.

Have a good Sunday.

There is almost no sense of speed in this car.
