New to Audi Newer to A.Z.

Hey all, just wanted to pop in and say hey.
I have had my Silver B5 S4 Avant for about 3 months now but and new to A.Z.

So Far I love the car, just have to get the guy who sold it to me to fix the air bags. Should be done this week. All in all it is in great shape. Body and paint are perfect except for a few rock chips and a scratch on the lower front bumper. The car has about 72K on it and had 9K in work done before I bought it (timing belt, head gasket, brakes, tires, and all the junk that goes with that). Turbos sound good and the DVs and the TBB look new too). So I am hoping that it will be strong and reliable for years to come. I have the Grey leather interior, which is growing on me. No big mods planned. New rims someday, silicone hoses, 710N DVs and maybe a Darintake. But right now I would be happy if I could find the retractable cargo net and a rs4 roof spoiler for a decent price. I went to the Audi after selling my gas chugging 91 Land Cruiser (10mpg). I wanted to keep some cargo space and the AWD as well as my manhood. Audi fit the bill and the S4 was the right price.

So there you have it...my Silver Bullitt!

Take care,
Kyle

Thanks all!

Its a Tip. I know...everyone likes 6sp more and it is better for performance.
But aside from the higher cost of a 6sp, this car was in great shape at a decent price so I felt like it would be a good bet. I probably should have waited but again, I am pretty happy with the tip and it is plenty quick for me. A 6sp would definitely be even more fun to drive though!

Could not get pics to post up but there should be a few in my gallery. Nothing great just dealer shots. If they are not showing let me know, and I will try to figure out how to post some up.
