Just took delivery on Monday. This machine is a serious smile maker and instantly my favorite car I've ever owned.

Hold back the flamming for not including pics...
My iPhone 5 glass broke on Sunday morning and I brought it to a place nearby to get the glass fixed on Monday, and the guy somehow completely broke my phone instead of just fixing the glass. He gave me a temporary loaner iPhone 5c but the camera is not working, and I haven't dug out my SLR yet since the car was just delivered to me on Monday night and it's been a busy week working.
This is a fourtitude article with photos of the exact car though. Wyoming Valley Motors took very good care of me, and worked out all the details for me to purchase from them in Pennsylvania with transport delivery to Florida. I'll take some fresh photos this weekend.

If you don't want that interior, let me know. We can do a swap plus cash. [:D]

So you're the one that bought it. Last price I saw it for was 55k. Haha that's awesome man.

Dam 55k for that. Now that is a steal.

Thank You. The attractive incentives on the car, helped to make everything happen. It offset some negative equity on my trade, and the $1,500 shipping to trade my car and get it from FL to PA, and the S4 from PA to FL.
Never bought a car over the internet before but it was pretty cool that everything came together.
HeyMyA4 I live in Boynton Beach and work in Boca Raton and hang out in Delray and many other parts of town. Look forward to meeting you sometime.

Are we allowed to ask what was the final price you payed for the car?
4SHRNGS
02-20-2015, 10:27 AM
The sales price of the S4 was pretty much what "S is for Slow" mentioned he saw it listed for on their website for when it was up. The car had 1,100 miles which wasn't on the web listing, but perfectly fine with me to help make it a better deal than if it was a usual <100 miles at delivery. The lower price would've been much better if my trade wasn't upside down with negative equity, but the better total numbers helped make everything work for me to buy the car. Audi USA had an extra $3,000 dealer cash to move left over 2014's separate from the usual 6% mark up (and 4% back end marketing money), this car apparently had 10% markup from invoice (and same 4% back end marketing money) I believe. The dealer treated me well, and extra credit to them for helping me as an out of State buyer to help me trade from Florida, and purchase from them in Pennsylvania.

Dam 55K minus an additional 3K for what a MSRP of 68K car. Man what a deal. I thought I got a super deal when I got my 58K S4 for 50K out the door. I think next time im going to sit and wait and scoop up one of these if I see one sit. Id love if they made Imola again.

02-20-2015, 11:37 AM
Don't mean to be confusing if I was.
Imola would be nice.

Don't mean to be confusing if I was. The $55k number was after all discounts were applied. There wasn't any additional discounting on the car. But that's still steep off the $65,500 sticker.
Imola would be nice.

Yea I had an Imola B5 S4 and i loved the color. Well still 55K is still a very very nice discount. Id take that any day. Thats y I'm sure you hoped right on that band wagon lol
heres my B5

Congratulations on the new ride. I wish I had my S4 in Delray now. You'd find me in Bostons On The Beach on A1A. I used to hang out there back in the day.

@Chaos2984 The Imola B5 S4 is looking fly in those photos.
@SForePlayin' we go to Boston's, Luna Rosa, BurgerFi (all right next to each other), and many other spots in Delray. My fiancé runs a hotel right around the corner (a block off the beach). It's a great place to stay if you're ever looking for a vacation back in town...

yea my B5 was a blast to own. Had that for 3 years. But i always keep my eye out for better deals out there. I took my B5 turned it into a B7 S4 with same loan payment that i had on my B5 and extended the loan by 1 year more than i had left on the B5. I had the B7 for 2 1/2 years and took the B7 and flipped that and bought a boat a nice R/C airplane and a ford explorer. And i only upped my payment on the explorer by 20 bux vs what i was paying on the audi and extended the loan by 6 months vs what was left on the audi. Then 2 1/2 years later i took the boat and sold that and used it for down payment for my new 14 S4. And my explorer is now paid off. Im always looking for deals out there haha. I wheel and deal. lol

Don't know that I would have ordered the interior necessarily but it's kinda cool that it was built this way so I'd probably stick with the interior.
It looks like you already have the same interior from your signature though, no?

02-20-2015, 06:26 PM
Haha I'm happy for you 4SHRNG looks like we both got great deals on our Nogaro's Did you get the interior tire package and all those little extras they try to sell you?

@S is for Slow TY! And glad you got hooked up too!! The only extra was Audi Care. And it was delivered with rubber mats and the carpeted mats. Did you get any extras?
Curiously though, the dealer had installed all season tires Continentals instead of the factory summer tires since they were in Pennsylvania and expected a local buyer would want the all seasons for snow. They seem to grip plenty and a friend mentioned they should last longer than summer rubbers which would be great.
I also noticed on my window sticker there's only a reference to 18" wheels not 19" which seems a little weird but good weird because I'd much rather the 19's.

I got the tire protection which was good because the wife curbed the wheels when the car had like 71 miles on them. Plus I have the paint and dent repair.

Good call on the wheel repair. They usually charge $125 per wheel or around $400 for all four if you use a wheel repair and refinisher direct. I found a set of our same wheels used for my last 2008 A4 and had a wheel guy color match them Quartz grey. They seemed to fit the car very well. Hopefully you'll never need to use that wheel repair insurance again though!

I hope I won't. But with the potholes in Chicago I might but I try to avoid the city at all costs, once spring hits and snow melts it seems like the potholes turn into man holes.

I think you were replying to me and no, mine is an Exclusive and the interior price was 6 grand if I remember correctly to have it special ordered. I wasn't kidding either, if you want to try to put a deal together, I'm game. Mine is the black alcantara.

Got it. (Missed the quoted reply from my mobile phone). Planning to keep the interior as is for now but will PM you if I change my mind.

"Man hole sized pot holes" that's reminding me of NYC streets... Fortunately the Florida roads are paved very well. It would be fun to have some real twisty, mountain roads though... Our highway on ramps and off ramps are the high end of the thrill side for Florida...

Haha yeah I used to live in Clearwater/Tampa the roads are just straight, it's fun to cruise at night but the lack of twisties sucks. IL has some decent twisties but nothing like Mountain Twisties. I do want to check out the Dragons Tail that would be fun.

Blue & Silver is such a great combination. What's the difference between Sprint & Nogaro. We get the Sprint out here, but have yet to see a Nogaro.

A bit of info on Nogaro Blue:
The exterior sports a special Nogaro blue pearl paint job that echoes the famous one from the RS2, a unique grille and oval exhausts, and optional blue interior trim that also echoes the original. The Nogaro paint is named for the Nogaro racing circuit in France, where Audi won two French Touring Car Championship victories in the early 1990s.

So Nogaro has the pearl effect, and the Sprint is metallic.
