Guilty as charged! Picked her up last weekend.

She's a 2007 in Misano Red with the Premium Package of course. Unfortunately, due to the timing of my buy... we're still waiting on the winter Pirelli's to arrive. Although she's been mostly tucked away in my garage however, I have found an excuse or three to take her out in the evenings for a little spirited 'rip. Coming from the U.S. R32... I'm still getting used to looking at KM's instead of Miles on the speedo all the time.

Have spent the last couple of days reading the manual and figuring out all of the various gadgets, knobs, etc., but I'm pretty much there now. Haven't really stretched the legs on her yet though. As you can see by my post, more interested in body parts for now (ie. need the front plate holder gone). Going to put the winters on the OEM rims and then hit the marketplace for some slick rims (suggestions welcome) in Spring 2012. I'm thinking something concave, silver (to match trim) in 19" would be perfect. Have updated my sig below for inspiration!

PS. Hoping to get out this w/e a few times too if the white stuff stays away!

Yeah... figured I couldn't keep it a secret for very long! Funny thing is... I think the wife bought me the plate filler for Xmas... so it's all good!

did you keep the r32 too?

For now... Yes. Right brain says sell it... I don't really need 2 cars. But Left brain says... are you f*cking nuts! Will likely consider putting her out for "expressions of interest" in the New Year. A respectable offer "might" convince me to listen to my right brain... although, my left brain seems to rule all my thoughts these days!

Hard to get good shots in a tight garage... but you get the idea... Misano Red Exterior, Black Interior, V8 under hood .

I gotta admit i'm dying to know...Mileage on this beauty?

An excellent question. Funny thing is... totally unlike me... the RS4 has a respectable amount of km's on her. She's currently at about 69,000km and change as of this weekend. More than I usually go for... but I can live with the previous owner's average of 14,000kms per year.

Here's the funny part. The R32... which is 3 years older... still has LESS mileage on it!

Did you find the filler plate? Dealer wants $224. I'm looking for one for a A4 with Titanium pkg.
