Thought I'd give an update. 10 months into ownership and love my IS, from the steering/handling feel, V6 exhaust note, engine response, aggressive stance and styling. Dare I say I "enjoy" the IS more than the RCF??? Fuel economy of course is terrible but forgiven as everything else makes up for it!

while i'm sure it drives great, that side view shows the problem i have with the IS design... the wheels and wheel arches just look too small for the rest of it.

Actually, in some ways, we were more spoiled back then. Today's big 20" wagon-wheels do handle better and steer quicker, but, too often, over bumps, ride like a Go-Kart.

I'm glad you are happy with your decision. The A4 is normally too understated but with the way you had it optioned I think it was enough of a head turner, but to each their own. Knowing Audis, it probably wasn't all that fun to drive. Certainly competent and fast, but definitely not "fun."

I did a full-review on a new A4 early last year, and found it quite impressive in many ways. And, according to Consumer Reports, Audi reliability has sharply improved in the last several years, and now ranks near the top.
