    Yeah, bluetooth will be all I use, just pisses me off that they are so out of date.

    Thanks. Need to do a lot of reading to figure out how everything works. The Audi Connect is very cool as it uses Google Satellite maps and intelligence so I can ask it things like, what is the highest rated yelp chinese restaurant in the area and it goes out and finds it and gives me directions. I am disappointed that this car comes with the stupid 30 Pin iPhone cable like the VW. Those phones have been off the market for years, why won't VAG figure that shit out. Met Dusty for a little ride and photography today. Had to get out now that the rain has stopped to do some night time shots.

    It is a VW, I assume I still get to be part of the VW Mafia?

    Happy Birthday

    Didn't have the time, or the weather, to stop and do some real photos.

    Crappy iPhone pics.

    Ouch. I am sure there will be numerous people willing to sell her an umbrella, but most of the hotels have them for sharing as well.

    Picking up the S4 tomorrow. Looks like shitty weather all week of course. Anybody here have a recommendation for a great car cover to use while I travel and leave the car out?

    Just another testament to the low light capabilities of the D750 from a wedding last night. ISO 11600 ISO 8000

    Congratulations Dan!!!

    The RCF is a completely different car than the IC. It is fast, but poorly reviewed competitor for the M4, RS5. The fastest 0-60 from the mags I can find for the IC350 F Sport is 5.5 seconds, with several mags putting it at 6 seconds.

    Yeah I have found it pretty crazy how many different 0-60 numbers there are for every car. The S4 brochure I have claims 4.9 seconds but the numbers vary greatly everywhere else I look.

    I stopped using all my k-edges and changed to the Garmin plastic mount. Seems to work very well, might protect the locking tabs better and looks great on all my black bars.

    Steve I would have strongly considered the Tesla, especially as they are now a client, but I live in a townhouse so charging it would be a bitch.
  15. VPI
    The S4 is dramatically faster than the IS350F. I think somewhere around 1.5 seconds faster 0-60.

    Yeah, I had a great streak there where I was flying home from Atlanta more often on Delta planes than on the United ones I was supposed to be on. It was nice.

    Nice Chris. A Peninsula house? I am waiting to board a flight to Dallas. My third United flight in three days, and every one of them has been at least an hour delayed.

    That is a nice looking car. I wonder if they have a factory kayak carrier accessory.

    I did look at them. Seemed like a nice car, but like most of the cars you mentioned I think the Q50 cars I saw were all well over 40k. Not sure why the infinity would have less maintenance than the Audi and BMWs. I have never heard of Nissans to be all that reliable.

    I thought about several Lexi, as they seem to be the best built cars out there. My main issue was they are a much softer and slower version of the BMW that I think is too soft.

    While the station wagons look pretty good in that model, not sure it is what I want to drive.
  22. VPI
    No station wagons. I thought I had already established it is the Blue Audi S4.
  23. VPI
    Well the Golf R came in today. I had to let it go, but it was difficult. About the perfect little car in my mind.
  24. VPI
    That is a very good description of driving a Porsche.
  25. VPI
    Yeah, I am certainly not convinced of the quality of Audi, but it seems to be pretty tight in the test drives I have done. Really the only problem I still have is all the bright red lights everywhere in the interior. Too many lights and way to many red lights. That being said, the Japanese car I drove, WRX, was way behind on interior quality of both the Golf and S4. I guess there is a new update in 2016 but it seemed really dated and plasticy to me. The Golf Nav system was awful but the fit and finish was nice but basic. The S4 has a lot of nice tech on the inside and a dated outside. I think it will be alight for a 3 year lease and then dump it for something else. Maybe BMW will stop making such mushy cars by then.
