I don't know where you got the lousy brakes comment from.  I often
hear just the opposite... those on the '00 S4 are probably
the best stock brakes on any Audi sold in the USA.  There were,
however, complaints about the stock tires...  We know that braking
performance is heavily influenced by that.
