Default Picked up new S4 Prestige two weeks ago

After debating between a 2014 535xi MSport and 2014 S4 Prestige, decided on the S4 (after making sure kids had enough room in the rear). S4 more performance oriented! This forum was helpful in aiding this decision. I ended up buying a Prestige model in SIlver with Black interior, DSG, Sport Diff, 19" wheels, and the car also came with the weather guards, "supercharged" badges and first aid kit. BTW, traded in my BMW X5 35d. I used to race SCCA M3s years ago.

Still breaking in the car and am at 850 miles, so almost there. My impressions so far have been really positive. A few highlights:

- Engine power and sound
- Sport Differential
- DSG
- Fit and finish
- B&O
- Google earth

I can understand why most of you are so enthusiastic. I am curious about engine tuning around 3k-5k miles. Am interested in Stasis or Revo (I know almost same tune but like the warranty piece). Can any of you comment who are running with these engine tunes? How many miles do you have with them? Any issues?

Thanks and look forward to many more miles!

Default Same....

I'm interested in the same.. prefer Stasis, however, I have recently heard from a SoCal dealer that Stasis has been complicated, if not completely destroying, the Audi warranty with a lot of finger pointing back and forth - forcing the dealer to step in and cover the issue itself so the customer isn't left holding the bag. I am concerned about this because the reason to go Stasis would be to avoid the voided warranty....

I have Prestige ice silver/lunar silver interior. no children here.
