2011 Audi S4 Prestige package

You've made it to this ad so chances are you already know these cars are special. In case you don’t, here’s a bit of info to whet your appetite. 

Completely stock off the show room floor, these cars are wonderful. Add in a few carefully picked modifications like I have done here and you've turned a great car into something truly amazing. Anyone that knows anything about these cars and their potential will know that this car is going to give you loads of trouble free, exhilarating fun. If you've never owned a modern day Audi Sports Sedan, you owe it to yourself to look at this car. Trust me; just seeing people crane their necks to look at this car is worth the price of admission. It's almost as though you're driving an exotic.  

If you're looking for one of the cleanest S4's around, this is the one you want!!! This car is beautiful inside and out and runs perfectly. Well over 400HP with the addition of the APR software package. APR has been providing safe, reliable software for Audi's for years. This example is no exception and totally transforms the vehicle. The APR software package consists of (2) files. One for California 91 Octane and another for 100 Octane Race Fuel. The files are very easily switchable from inside the cockpit via the cars cruise control stock. No flashing device needed. Simply put in the proper fuel, select the file you want and off you go.  

The car sits on H&R OEM Sport Springs which gives it a nice hunkered down look without being overly aggressive. The addition of the Avant Garde M310 wheels in 19X9.5, finishes off the look. With the springs and wheels, the handling of this car is significantly improved over the factory settings without taking away from its comfortable ride. There is absolutely no rubbing at any corner with this set up even when the car is fully loaded with people and any gear you may be hauling around.  

The car rides on one of Michelins best performing street tires and all 4 have plenty of tread on them.  

The mushy factory rear differential mount has been replaced with an Apikol version. This modification takes away some of the slop present in the factory set up and allows for cleaner smoother shifting.  

The factory grill has been replaced on this car with an RS4 version. Just this modification alone, gives the car a much more aggressive look and sets it apart from run of the mill S4’s.  

Do you like your cars to sound like they mean business? Well this car checks that box nicely. With the addition of a Magnaflow x-pipe in place of the rear factory resonator, coupled with a pair of Magnaflow Mufflers, this car sounds amazing. Blip the throttle with a down shift on the paddle shifter and you're treated to one of the best exhaust notes you'll ever hear. It's so fun to do, that I mostly drive the car in manual mode. As good as it sounds however, it's not obnoxious. At idle and just cruising around, you would think the car was completely stock.  

The factory intake has been upgraded with the addition of a 034 Motorsport Intake tube along with a K&N filter that resides in the factory air box. This combination allows for better breathing and still keeps supercharger whine at acceptable levels.  

The windows have been tinted - 5% on the back 3 and 35% on the front 2. 

The car is hard wired for either a Beltronics or Escort radar detector as pictured. The radar detector is not included in the sale however.  

The car has been re-codded to provide features that were turned off for this vehicle from the factory. Examples include, Day Time LED's staying on when the turn signals are on, auto open and close of the windows and sunroof with the use of the car key fob. None of these changes affect the way the car drives and will not void the warranty. They simple add extra convenience options that were not turned on when the car left the factory. 

The car is a completely key-less entry vehicle. Just throw the key fob in your pocket and you can lock, un-lock the car as well as start and turn off the motor without ever taking the key out of your pocket. 

The car comes with a CPO (Certified Pre-Owned) warranty which fully covers the vehicle. It is good for 2 years or 50K miles. 

Registration has just been paid and is good through August 2015  

Again, this is one of the best 4 door sedans on the market today. At this price, there isn't a lot that will touch it in terms of sheer driving pleasure, comfort, luxury and acceleration. You simply have to see and drive this car to fully appreciate it.

Deposit of $500 due within 48 hours of close. Please make sure your financing is in place ahead of time. This is a private sale and will be treated as such. At completion, buyer is responsible for pay off to Audi Financial Services and any small remainder in the sale price will go to me. I am not interested in making money on this deal. The indicated sale price is close to payoff so there is little room for negotiation. 

I can provide the contact information for Audi Financial Services if needed. 

All shipping arrangements and costs are the responsibility of the buyer.

2019 BMW X7 vs luxury SUV rivals: Comparing specs and photos

Wed, Oct 17 2018

Today we get our first-ever look at the first-ever 2019 BMW X7 crossover. We've actually already had our first-ever drive in an X7 Prototype. And so, we thought it appropriate to follow that up today with the first-ever X7 comparison of specs between BMW's first-ever three-row crossover with legitimate room for seven and its many high-dollar competitors. On paper, the 2019 X7 definitely seems to most closely align with the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class. Their similar dimensions, interior space, engine choices and price would certainly imply where BMW placed the target when developing X7. We used those same elements to determine three-row vehicles likely to be cross-shopped or that should be cross-shopped. These include the Audi Q7, Land Rover Discovery, Volvo XC90 and Lincoln Navigator. Yes, the latter is a truck-based SUV as opposed to a crossover, but tell that to all the people lining out the door at the local Lincoln emporium. They do not care, and neither shall we. We also included the 2019 BMW X5, which was completely redesigned for this year and therefore not the first-ever. That makes it less appealing? Either way, lining the new X5 up with the SUV that leapfrogs it atop BMW's SUV hierarchy should provide a good idea of just how much more you get by going up a model number. Engines and model lineup Again, the X7 aligns closest with the GLS, offering a base six-cylinder in its xDrive40i model and an upgrade turbo V8 in the xDrive50i. The Mercedes engines have greater output, but the GLS still accelerates slower than the BMW. As the 2019 X5 offers the exact same engines, we would also expect the X7's fuel economy to be superior to the GLS once its estimates are announced. It should be noted, though, that the GLS offers a high-powered AMG model whereas we anticipate the X7 to offer a plug-in hybrid model comparable to the X5 upcoming xDrive45e model. The other luxury SUVs diverge in their engine choices and model lineup. The Audi Q7 offers a base turbocharged four-cylinder, as does the Volvo XC90 in its T5 model, which we left out of the above chart entirely for space reasons. That the Q7 3.0 TFSI supercharged V6 gets the same fuel economy estimates as the four-cylinder is proof positive that engine is purely around for its lower base price.

AMS Alpha 10 Audi R8 First Drive [w/video]

Thu, Oct 1 2015

Horsepower is a relative number. Compared to the 1,500 hp in the last AMS car we drove, the face-melting Alpha 12 GT-R, 900 seems pretty tame. But by any rational standard that's a crazy amount of power, the kind that's hard to grasp in practical terms. When AMS Performance called us and offered a test in the 921-hp Alpha 10 Audi R8, saying yes was easy. Figuring out how to demonstrate that much thrust was the tricky part. Our solution was to head to the drag strip. What better way to show off the wicked alterations wrought by AMS president Martin Musial and his team than a video showing the car do the Star Trek warp speed effect through the quarter mile? AMS has a history of building quick drag strip cars, like the aforementioned GT-R and a series of Mitsubishi Lancer Evolutions. Vice president Arne Toman even owns the world's fastest Hearse. We should have taken the broken scoreboard at Milan Dragway as an omen. Wiped out by a lightning strike, both displays have since been replaced. Before our test both Musial and Toman explained that the Alpha 10 R8 wasn't built with drag racing in mind. But, being good sports, both met us at the track in southeast Michigan, unloaded the R8 from its trailer, and let us run through the timing lights over and over. The best time that day was 11.0 seconds at 136 mph, uncorrected. One of the many amazing things about the Alpha 10 Audi R8 is that it's essentially a bolt-on system. That's fast, but not what you'd expect for 786 horsepower at the wheels. And, honestly, we're not disappointed. First, a 4,200-rpm rev limiter was set too low to launch on the sticky drag strip. Put another way, that drag strip time is almost a street start. For what it's worth, Musial and Toman didn't seem concerned about the numbers. Like we said, they present the Alpha 10 as an all-around performance car, and we believe them. Now, if you go to AMS with the drag strip in mind, Musial and his staff can program whatever launch rpm you desire. (You're on your own for clutch replacements.) A reflash of the engine controller is part of the Alpha 10 package. Drop off a stock R8 V10 at AMS (or any of its 70-plus dealers), and they'll pull out the suitcase-shaped muffler that sits behind the engine. A pair of turbochargers, small mufflers, and two heat exchangers attach to the stock exhaust system mounts, while a giant water-to-air intercooler sits on top of the engine.

Audi R8: Commander

Mon, Feb 8 2016

We're not sure that "Choosing the moon brings out the best in us" is an appropriate tag for an automaker, much less a German automaker. But hey, when it comes to commercials that air during the Super Bowl it's all about playing up greatness, America, and working in Rock and Roll anthems. Audi hits all three here. 205-horsepower supercar? Check. Great moment in our national history? Check. David Bowie's Starman? Check. Add in a dollop of the R8's wicked V10 engine noise and, well, we'll watch this one more than once. And in case you want more R8 and Bowie, click here for the extended version.
