Need help, thinking about selling my car.

But I'm not sure what to get. The STI or EVO seem tempting, but i kinda like the euro thing also. I was looking a getting a MB SL55. Any other suggestions on what to look at?

TIA.

After attending the more recent BMW driving school, I'm kinda wanting a BMW330 or perhaps an older M3. But wth my luck in the tech industry, I think the only euro I'll get is a fiat. Maybe a volvo


But that SL55 is sick! Even though they say that with a MB it's not really "connected " to the driver, I'd take on in an instant. Oh and I hope you like buying gas, as I hear that thing is about as bad as an SUV.

The EVO is an over priced lop of crap.(Here on island at lest) The STi is way better, but both cars are not going to be as nice as your S4. GO from Leather and wood to cloth and plastic stuff like that. Why would you go a step down? Plus your car kicks A$$! yO don't sell it!

RS6 or E55 AMG or SL55 AMG or M3 or new S4...

If you are trying to stay reasonable, why not a G35 Coupe? Those things are SEXY and will be quick with a small shot of giggle!

Keep the S4. That Black B!t@h is SuhWeeeT.

BTW, a former WRX owner (mashed his on H-1 last month) is now driving a red S4. I believe it's an '01.

well it's just the fact that it cost so much to mod this damn thing. I almost have to sell my left nut for parts. With the SL55 I would just leave that alone. With other cars like the STI etc... I believe that those would be much cheaper to mod.

I read taht review at work (thank God we have magazines... still miss the internet). It is VERY nice and only weighs a bit more than the 6 (the engine, at least), but there is something SO DAMN SEXY about the TT setup.

Stick with what you've got, Reg. It's awesome
