My new ride...

forza1976 · 05-15-2011, 04:59 PM

I know i'm a traitor, but I hope you all will still hang with me. I still love BMW and will probably be back after this car but had to do something different and really wanted a car with a dual clutch transmission to try it out.

Here are the details:

2011 S4
Meteor Gray Pearl
Black & Silver Interior
Navi, HD Radio, Sirius and hdd for storage
PDC w/Camera
7speed DSG transmission (Dual Clutch)
Sport Diff
19's with Dunlop rubber

Some pictures (iphone). Had to throw in a shot of the speedo, cracks me up

damn i didnt know the new s4 was supercharged! looks so nice!
but whats so funny about the dash pic? im lost lol

forza1976 · 05-15-2011, 05:05 PM

sorry, 200mph.. no way it goes that fast.

mattsfeir · 05-15-2011, 06:06 PM

Looks good, a lot of wasted speedo space there since you'll only use a third of it most of the time. Nice exterior and interior plus great options with wheels and especially sport diff. Definitely let us know how it accelerates through turns compared to you BMW.

I don't care what you drive, will hang out with any car guy.

Is that supercharger belt driven? Any idea if the ECU will recognize the thin air and spin it faster to compensate?

Express · 05-15-2011, 06:11 PM

the new s4 doesnt do it for me.. but congratulations on the new car! enjoy it!

bmw-nj · 05-15-2011, 06:15 PM

the car looks sick especially the interior.

Bimmer This · 05-15-2011, 06:39 PM

I like it!!!!!!!!!!! Off with his head for being a traitor.

16M4 · 05-15-2011, 08:17 PM

Congrats! Car looks good. The interior is much better than our 335s for sure.

ZuerstBMW · 05-15-2011, 08:26 PM

NICE, congrats. German is the way to go.

Fantastic car - several folks I work with have them and LOVE them. Check out APR's chip:

http://www.goapr.com/products/ecu_up...tfsi_b8s4.html

385 AWHP on 100 octane with just a chip. Assuming 17% drivetrain loss with AWD, you are talking almost 465 HP at the crank. Wow!

Congrats!

Dr. G · 05-16-2011, 12:50 AM

Wow, that speedo is ridiculous haha

Motastic · 05-16-2011, 01:10 AM

congrads! its real nice

Dackz · 05-16-2011, 03:05 AM

The interior is so awesome.....I love that combo. And the audi interior is MUCH nicer then BMW. At least in what I got to see at the auto show...I thought the S4 and S5 were the 2 best in the class of our cars.

Cant wait to go for a spin in it!

Thanks for all the complements folks. Appreciate the understanding of me jumping ship. Looking forward to showing it to you all.

Bimmer This · 05-16-2011, 08:39 AM

DrPig57 · 05-16-2011, 08:55 AM

Nice interior. I guess that means you will start hanging out the Audi guys.
