Friend is looking at an S4, need some opinions. More inside...
My friend is stationed in the air force down south and loves my car. He is looking to get a decent priced S4 for himself. He found one at a dealership that he is interested in, price is good. It's an auto with 119,000 miles. He isn't ever going to go stage III, the most he will do is stage II. What should he look out for on the car other than CV boots, control arms, valve cover gaskets...? Link included...Thanks alot guys<ul><li><a href="http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?rdpage=thumb&car_id=230993129&deal er_id=46483740&car_year=2001&model=&nu m_records=&systime=&make2=&start_year= 1981&keywordsfyc=&keywordsrep=&engine= &am

Also be sure to check shifting of tranny (s/b smooth - also ck if steering wheel shifter
buttons work), do thorough test drive (ck for any issues w/ steering, suspension, etc.) and ck all hoses, belts etc, for wear. May want to have VIN run through Audi dealer computer to check for any service history, etc. (if feasible).

headlights, hood, fenders look all misaligned, and with that curbing on the one wheel...
I would probably steer clear unless it checked out mechanically sound with a PPI. If it does, hell, it's 8500 for an S4.
