Returning member with an S4 (with pics)

[JustinM]

After a couple years away from the Audi scene, I finally picked up a 2011 S4 Prestige. I originally was looking to buy a e92 335is until I realized that the S4 was in my price range. I drove 3 hours away, to Memphis Tennessee, to buy the car.

Here's some history on the Audi's I've owned:

The first Audi I had was a 2003 A4 1.8t Quattro which I bought completely stock. I did some modifications and next thing you know, it was totaled. I lady in a Dodge Durango ran me into a curb and at one point both passenger wheels were up on my car. Sorry for the iPhone pictures.

So after that was totaled out I started my search for another car, not looking specifically at Audi's. I found another A4 for sale right here on this forum from a member outside of D.C.. I flew up there the morning of New Year's Eve of 2012 and drove home the same day. When I bought it it already had a tune, bigger injectors, high flow cat, and borla exhaust, and aftermarket intercooler. I gave it my own touch before selling it a couple years ago.

This leads me to last week when I found the S4 that was packaged exactly how I wanted it including wheels, color combo, full leather, sport diff, navigation, dsg. (I am by no means a professional photographer, this is just a Nikon Coolpix.)

I am very excited to start modifying this car. First things will be window tint, exhaust, tune and pully upgrade.

Lastly, I have been looking into lowering springs and after looking at pictures of cars with different springs, my car kinda looks like its already lower than some other S4's. Were there different suspensions offered for these cars? Or is it just my wheel and tire combo that is playing tricks on me?

Thanks for looking

Looks like stock height to me.

Congrats on the new ride!

I came from a stage 3 B6 A4 as well. Great upgrade!
Your B8 looks like stock height. If you lower on springs make sure you do proper upgraded dampeners at the same time and save yourself a bouncy ride and $$ having to do them separately.

I think I remember your car from back in the day! Nice find on the S4, she's beautiful!

Great looking car and congrats!! It's a great upgrade for sure. I'd say it looks to be at stock height.
Please get some ecodes, it will drastically change the look of the car and clean up the front end so much.
Enjoy and happy modding!
