Default Ran into B8 S4 fan in unexpected place..

I went to one of my niece's wedding yesterday in Olympia, WA. I went out to get something out of my car and her other uncle (from CA) says to me "you're driving my car". He had test driven a B8 S4 as a replacement to his C5 A6 2.7T. He knew everything about the B8 S4. I thought it was pretty cool!!

Nice!

I always get "hey, nice A4. Boy, those Japanese make nice cars"....

It'll do - at least nobody's mistaken it for a Tata

not many people appreciate B8 S4s from what I have seen. I have heard A4, Honda, etc.

Where I work we have a 2010 S4, 2008 S4, and a 2011 RS4 (first in CO). When I get mine we'll have over 2% of the company in S-version Audis.

Another guy used to track an M3... but he's still a good guy.

LOL!!! If anyone mistaken our cars for a Tata, I'll tell them, "No, it's not a Jaguar/Land Rover"...

I have gotten the "Oh you drive an Audi? A4?". LOL! I guess I don't look cool enough to be driving an S4...

The average non-car enthusiast doesn't know the difference anyway... when I told people I was looking at the S4/S5, someone at work said "why are you getting a 'mom' car?"
