Default I think you're under the misconception that the general Audi populous cares about

dyno numbers and trap speeds above all else.

It's not about that for most of us. Sure, it's a nice way to measure relative straight-line performance, but that's not the point of the S4.

Japanese cars are cheaper to mod than German cars, yes. I don't think you're blowing anyone's mind with that claim.

Default Perfect...

Ok cool.. You will trap the same. Yet your car will go no where in the rain, or snow. Wont start when its cold out. Wont hang with the S4 on the back road. You will be left driving straight... FUN! Not to mention.. I GURANTEE it wont be as reliable as you claim. How many times do you go in and get that retuned? or how long have to had it?

Default he clearly likes automatics, so he's missing the best part about the S4

a 6-spd manual with ****ty synchros! that's still better than having an automatic!
