Default JUST GOT HOME FROM DRIVING 2004 S4!

Let me first say that I am in the USAF and stationed about 40 miles north of London, England. Anyway, after reading a post on the board about some one going S4 hunting in Barcelona, I thought I can do that too. So, I called around to the local Audi dealers and sure enough, one had Nogaro Avant available to drive. So I made the appointment with the sales department and hurried up there after work. I took a few pictures too, so if anyone wants to host them and post them let me know and I can email them to you.
Anyway, onto the part you all want to hear about. All I have to say is, awesome. I knew this would be a great car to drive, but I had no idea. This will be my first Audi, after owning a 97 Pontiac GTP that would run low 13's in the 1/4. The salesman told me to give it a run for its money, so I did. I ran it all the way up to red line on more than a few runs and it constantly pulled hard. The brakes were very sensitive and performed very well. Even though all of that power is there, it is a cruising machine when in 6th on the highway.
I don't really know what else to say, although I am sold, sold, sold on this car. Feel free to post any questions you may have that I might be able to answer.

Could you please give us some more details on the ride?

- shifter/clutch feel
- ride quality (harsh?)
- seat comfort
- steering
Also how does it compare to the E46-M3 (if you've driven one)

Thanks for info and being USAF. You guys rule!
