[s-cars] 04 S4 (was Can you say "procrastinate"? )

[Bill Noland]

I'll come out of list-lurk mode for long enough to say, "Congrats on the S4, 
Michael." I still get a thrill driving my '04 after almost 3 1/2 years. 
Steering and tranny feel are light years ahead of the UrS and the '04 grill 
is, of course, pre-large-mouth-bass styling and all the better for it. Other 
than the smaller size, lack of ultimate turbo tunability and gas mileage, I 
don't miss the UrS for daily transport.

When I say gas MILEage on the B6 S4, I really mean gas YARDage. It really is 
pitiful, but is the price of admission to the V8 roar. Of course the UrS 
remains in the family -- in the hands of my step daughter and I retain right 
of first refusal for any future plans to sell. Still a beautiful car at age 
13.

Enjoy the neu toy!
