here's a link pic to Josh Decker/Achtuning's wicked RS4-converted S4:

without all the decals used in photo shoots/events, this car looks pretty handsome and stealthy, w/ little clue to the devastating performance on tap.
Thank you sir for the informative link. My colon will officially recant his supposition in respect of this evidence.

Good day

I love the S4 style....ALOT, but that thing is ugly as heck...the engine might look nice and it's probably fast, but other than that it messed up the S4 look.

It looks like the love child between Audi and the Fast and the Furious movies.

The 2006 S4 specs say 340 stock.

I just got toyed by a modified s4 yesterday. The s4 was riding my *** on the highway so I down shifted to 3rd and that didn't do anything but make noise. So, I just pulled to the right lane and let him pass. That car flys!!! I NEED Turbo NOW!!!

one of my coworkers has an S4, he's dumping it shortly due to the cost of maintenance.

the engine bay looks dope, and the itnerior is aright, but the seats look worn. I cant stand how the front end looks. Wayy too much going on, it lost its sleakness look, imo....

Especially one with a manual swap (T56 maybe?). Those cars are the coolest sleepers ever.

I wasn't sure what the hp of the older ones was, but for comparison I just figured I'd mention the new ones. Thanks for the input.
