B8 S4 Ownership

Yup, nice.
Four pipes is hardly subtle, of course - I'm still amazed they didn't put eight on the RS4...
Reminds me of going to buy a Mk2 Cortina which shared garage space with a custom Mini from the 60s complete with pearl fleck paint and 1 pipe per engine cylinder exhaust - looked a bit OTT to say the least!Four pipes is hardly subtle, of course - I'm still amazed they didn't put eight on the RS4...
I'd be so much happier with 2 oval tailpipes over the quads....

Speaking of exhausts..........would a B7 RS4 exhaust fit the B8 S4........I'd assume not.
I don't believe it will, although seem to remember Dr G posting a pic of a black S4 saloon they'd swapped RS4 oval tailpipes onto the back boxes on a car they were retailing. Looked really nice and given the general opinion is that the factory exhaust isn't restrictive I'm surprised more people don't do it.Might ask my mate if he's got bucket loads of RS4 boxes hanging about!
The only car that was in competition for me isn't out till next year.
The new Mercedes C45 Wagon, very smart and will have 4 matic and similar performance/economy.
What I really would like is a smaller Panamera :-)
RS4 and C63 is a bit OTT for a family wagon

Mine arrives next month
Should look like this - moonlight blue black edition :-)
Nice, I like that colour but couldn't see one in the flesh before I ordered. This is what mine will be like, Black Edition, in black Should look like this - moonlight blue black edition :-)
I ticked a few boxes as well, Sports Seats and sunroof were the two main ones, plus the dampers, ride control and diff. I am looking forward to getting it, just need to shift to the M135i now!
It does look cool in black, just wanted something slightly different for a change, although it's so dark I'll still have water marks no doubt.
There is a moonlight blue approved used car for sale for real life pics.
B9 looks pretty similar but imagine the interior will have the standard 'stick an iPad screen in the middle' look.

Does anyone know if the geometry settings for the B8.5 are 'in the public domain'? (19in rims).
I have had mine a year now since new and the turn in has never been what I would call inspiring.
My local indy that I use for my track car geometry, didn't have them a year ago when I bought it.

PM me and I'll send you pdfs of the factory settings from ElsaWIN - I'm on the wrong PC to check, but they've been there for every other model I've ever looked up!I have had mine a year now since new and the turn in has never been what I would call inspiring.

So is it confirmed that there are DEFINITELY no new orders for these now. No existing build slots up for grabs etc...
