i would swear the a4 is the official dotcom car here in san fran. they must 
pass them out with double latte's and pale orange business cards.

i also cant believe how many s4's i see. it's a drag, i think. the older 
cars are so much cooler bc they're rare and you know 95% of the people 
driving them are audi nuts. the new s4 seems like its much more of a poser 
status car like the m3. dont get me wrong, i'd saw off a limb for a new s4 
(or an m3 for that matter), but, it makes me laugh when i see people driving

around in a car of that caliber and they have NO IDEA whats its capable of 
nor what its pedigree is.

Oh i totally agree with this as well... here in New England, I think you get
an A4 instead of a parking place when you start a new job as a perk..... its
insane how many of them are around... same thing for the S4's.... I dont
even bother checking them out any more... if i see a 5k or V8 i always look
to see if the driver is looking back... but anything new i dont even
bother...and i even hear the unintended stuff from time to time here at work
when i tell people what i drive... silly....The fad is good for Audi but at
the same time you hate to see something you really feel strongly about being
treated casually....

my rant as well... :)
