New MY07 S4 Cab (long)
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/111636/cimg1004a.jpg"></center><p>This is one of my first posts. I ordered my MY07 S4 last May. This forum has been very good at getting me excited about delivery of my new car. I had a 1984 BMW 325e and totaled it in a snow storm between Milwaukee and Chicago in 1988, ice on a bridge. Ever since then I have had vans, mini vans and SUV's. It was time for something new.
I have a friend with a B6 S4 avant with the twin turbo's but he lives about 150mi away. I went to see if I could fit in the Cab and it has lots of room, I am 6'5". Next I went for a test drive in an S4 Avant. I was sold on the spot. The V8 just wants to GO! I have 2 young girls, 4 and 8. My wife does not drive a stick so I had to go Tip.
I took me a week to convice her that this $70,000 car makes sense for us. Whe had just spent 5 years fixing up the house for "US". We have done it all, Kitchen, roof, landscaping, painting, and lastly furniture, over $200,000. She liked the new grill on the 07, even thou I was not so hot on it I ordered a silver with black interior. I was thinking Silver with Red but she was not into anything flashy. I was willing to do anything to get the car so I went with it. I have seen some photos of the Red interior and it looks quite bright. The new grill has grown on me if you don't have a front plate. I am glad I waited, even thou it was a long summer watching everyone else in convertiables.
I got all of the options, Nav, Bluetooth, carbon fiber trim, parktronic, rear heated seats, preimum, and air presure monitoring. I was surprised that they changed the Preimium wheels but I like the replacement as much as last years.
I got the car 3 weeks ago and have not been able to get any good pictures as I can't stop driving it. The sound of the V8 is intoxicating with the top down. The top has been down every dry day and I love it. The first day I went 3 exits past work. This car just wants to go fast, you just touch the gas and you are going 95mph. It has been a long time since I have gone this fast this often. I know that I have some encounters with the police comming. It has been 22 years since my last ticket in the 325e.
As for all the talk about gas mileage on this post all I have to say is get a life, fun costs money.
I do not know how to post multiple photos and have tried , ; : and spaces between the URL's. What is the trick? You should be able to click on my ID number and see some more pics.

Looks Great. First B7 cab I've seen.
Just curious, did you get the painted calipers with the cab.

It has the painted calipers and they look great!!!
The code was just a blank box on my browser. What key's should I use?
I just got to 1000mi and cannot wait to unleash the power.

excellent choice.
I rented a S4 cab in San Diego a couple of years ago (Hertz at the SD airport has several of them) and it was a blast...by far the best 3 days I've had with a rental car. I didn't put the top up once.

Re: New MY07 S4 Cab (long)
Nice pic - would like to see some more! I ordered my S4 Cab (Black on Black) in early August and have been told to expect it in October. There aren't many pics out there yet. I wish the leather trim was all black and didn't have the silver piping. I do like the DTM package that I've seen on other cars and wonder if I should have ordered that...
