Thanks for the comments guys. I will convey some of your suggestions.

The spoiled part may be partly true but knowing the way she is, she would be just as happy with an S2000 as an M3/S4/Z4, only that i don't think she can master a manual transmission. I really think the safety net that modern cars incorporate would ensure a reasonable level of safety and in the end, she knows better than to act foolishly.

Everything considered, the S4 seems to be better packaged than the others for now. I do think Quattro will keep the accidental hooliganism in check.

9MPG is a daunting prospect if we get back to $4/gallon though.
