Don't have a pic of the IS yet but since it's all stock at this moment so I'm sure you guys all know how it looks like. Here's a pic of the other ride just to share. See y'all around.

nice pic! welcome to CL....

btw, is your S4 REALLY 10MPG?

Thanks for the welcome guys.

With all honesty, initially when I first got the car, I was really getting about 10 -12 MPG (I was having too much fun with it). Plus it wasn't really broken in yet. It's a norm with this V8 as I was told by other Audi forum heads and MPG did get better after about 8K.

Now that it's more broken in plus I added few things to help the car to breathe better (intake, removed 2 cats and replaced the other 2 with high-flow 200 cel cat + full piping from header and back) it now varies between 18-14 mpg depending on how I drive it. I mainly drive in the city or stop and go traffic on the parking lot known as 880 so that's not helping either.

It's an odd feeling that I had my IS for almost a week and still haven't visited the gas station yet but I think I'll get used to it quick

You know who you are.

Then, a poll will be set up and a final date will be determined and set up w/ time and location.

For now, just enjoy the new year and be safe.

thanks...teeman3
Tee,
If you need another person for the dry run I'm game, as long as the weather stays dry and the date is good.

So I can make sure that you are not left alone and unattended if there's gonna be a lunch after the meet. I'm thinking the title of the upcoming 2IS meet is gonna be "The 2IS Hamburger Run".



Sign-In if you gots a 2IS. We'd love to have you sign up and rep CL.


BTW.....is350jonny, I apologize for hi-jacking your thread and pls feel free to jump in anytime and let me know if I'm intruding on your space.
I'm just trying to keep things a little organized here and easy to read for everyone.


BTW.....this1boy....I'll keep u in mind and might need your help locally unless my Northbay boys might have something up their sleeve and we might just end up somewhere up there instead of halfway between SouthBay and NorthBay.

Thanks for your time.....teeman3

Feel free to jump in my Southbay thread listed "BAY AREA MINI MEETS"
haha. well in that case.... maybe the SCs can join up too as well (they can be the camera guys) but yeah, later in february the better.. my car is still at the shop Total repairs are at like $18,000 but Allstate only approving $8k? So.. it's delaying the process... I hope to get it back by mid Feb. By that time it will be pretty much all done - rims. hope to pick that up around the same time.
