Default My New '13 S4

It's been a while but I'm back in the VW/Audi Group. Years ago I got my first German experience by way of an '01 Jetta and then jumped into an Acura TSX where I spent the last 7 years.

Today I took delivery of my new S4, a car I've wanted for many years. Needless to say I couldn't be happier. Here's the spec:
  • Phantom Black
  • MMI Nav
  • Black Nappa Leather
  • Sports Diff
  • B&O Sound
  • 19" Wheels
  • Stainless Steel Inlays
  • Advanced Key
  • Supercharged Badges

Looking forward to learning from you guys.

Default Well done - congratulations - this is an easy car to love

You are in the right place to start - from switching a light bulb to recos on what shade of tint to go with - these forums make owning an S4 that much more enjoyable -
Have fun and keep us posted of any issues/mods/suggestions!

Congrats! I'm sure it's even sweeter after the long wait. I waited 10 years+ for mine =)

I bought my Jetta in 2001 and that's when I really started eyeballing the S4 so I guess you could say I waited 10+ years also. So far, it's been well worth the wait.

Well hello fellow Knoxvillian

I too am about to order a new 2013 S4 (more than likely from Joey at Harper's) in the coming weeks. You and I have almost the same build specs except for IBIS White color and a few other options.

Are you planning any mods or personalizations?

Great to see another Knoxvillian on here. This was the third straight vehicle I've bought from Harper's. The service is so good I usually force myself into one of their brands. Shannon Harper always takes good care of me but Joey and Chris Shore are awesome as well.

The master tech at Harper Audi has a white S4 and it looks incredible. Great choice!

No mods for me as I'm normally an OEM+ kind of guy. If I do anything in the future it will likely be an ECU upgrade from APR. Ceramic window tint is going on today (to help keep the black on black cool in the summer) and Harper's (by way of Fat Cat Customs) is wrapping the front in 3M Invisiblehield next Friday.

I test drove the Prestige model they had but side-by-side to mine there wasn't enough there to convince me I needed to spend an additional $2k.

Let me know when you get it and we'll have an S-car meet up.
