[s-cars] sold the S4

[LL - NY]

Amen to that!

I will have to admit, however, that I may have the low annual milage champ
with my now Garage Queen. I did 1000 miles since last year, most of it
going to and from NE S-Fest. Circumstances (too busy to keep up with
what she needs for the moment) and cosmetics (it's been REAL rainy
up here, it's gone over the yearly record by an inch and the year isn't over
yet) and a taillight leak (keyhole, dammit) have kept her clean and dry in
the garage mostly. BUT, everytime I take her out, I have to revel in all
she can do overall. Not the best at anything. But consistently a top runner
in everything (except the sound system, and Nav, oh, and now Bluetooth).
Can't beat the combo.
