So I haven't been on here for awhile and that's due to me selling the car last fall. Anyways been saving up and shopping around and finally made a new purchase.

2011 Audi s4 Prestige

I know it's not a Honda, but this forum has been awesome and I thought i'd share.

Congrats! My friend also has the S4 Prestige. But it is the SC version. They are really nice cars.
thanks. SC version as in supercharged version?
miss seeing this car at ppp and on the cruises, where is it at now?
all the s4's 10-15 are supercharged.

it's in New Brunswick. I miss it at times. Can't wait to get the s4 this week.

Ah, I thought yours was the turbocharged version for some reason. :giggle:
Nice! A buddy of mine has a 2010 S4. It's very quiet, which makes it that much more awesome when he steps on it :D

So to keep the tradition of us keeping our cars the same, I guess I have to go buy one too, huh?

haha I don't think you'd regret it. I absolutely love it.
I've actually been toying with the idea of selling mine, but it would probably be for a bike upgrade rather than a car upgrade :)
