Default Looking to change....



Owned the S for nearly 5 years now... its never had a problem - even with supercharging it to 380whp - but I'm getting the bug for a new car. I have a beater (JDM lude) for the work run and the wife has a CTR so I not worried about it being practical. But the Audi has caught my eye

Took out a '57 RS4 today - to be honest I was pretty impressed especailly the V8 and the handling But to be honest im worried it will "dull" on me after a while.

Also Looking at a Exige S, M6, Tuscan and a NSX but the later becuase I can get super cheap servicing!

Last year I thought about selling the S...... but would someone want it charged? or do I do the sickening thing and put it back to standard!

I am sure you would sell such a well sorted car on here easily .... don't trade it though otherwise you will get hammered ....

Another one with itchy feet

How about the new shape M3? More fun than an RS4 i'd guess?

911 or Cayman S?

WRT to the S, i'd sell it complete. Just look for what 05's are selling and add a bit on. Alas the bits don't seem to get their money back

Handling?

Roadholding, surely?
