I recently became a member, and unfortunately have not been able to spend much time here due to juggling business and vacation time the past month.

I am from Belleville Ontario and do not yet have my Audi, but will soon. I was looking for a 2011 S4 but late in the year and the dealer (Kingston Volkswagen & Audi) were not able to find me anything set up as I wanted, except for a few demo vehicles in colours and configurations I did not like. I also wish to break-in a new cars myself, rather than getting one driven by a variety of people with different driving styles. So...I put down $1,000 deposit months ago and ordered a 2012 set up just as I want, and I was just contacted by the dealership last week saying it is expected to arrive the week of August 22nd.

What I have ordered is the S4 in Premium Trim, 19” and exterior etc., Drive Select Quattro differential auto. Quarts Grey was my first choice, but not available for 2012, so going for Monsoon grey on Mustang Brown and Carbon Atlas trim, Nav and B & O audio. Winter wheels and tires still to be determined but will go with Blizzacks or Maragoni for rubber.

I am moving to the S4 from a Lexus IS 350, which I quite enjoy, but brutal in the winter.

I started looking into this purchase late March, so am getting pretty pumped for my car to come in, and just sorry I did not have it for the entire summer.

I look forward to becoming more active on the forum and when I take delivery of my car I will post pictures and share my experience of the 2012 S4. Best, Steve

Great to have you on board here.

Thanks for the welcome. I am heading to Kingston tomorrow morning for businees and am hooking up with the dealership at 2:30 to chat. Adam from Kinsgston Volks-Audio has been great! It is pretty difficult waiting for my S4, as I was expecting it for summer. At least I will get a few months in on the 19" performance tires and wheels before swapping for winter set up.

Forgive me when I print Audio instead of Audi....I am in the radio business and also Hi Fi as a long time hobby, so without thinking AUDIO get's put in there instead of AUDI, for sure no disrespect for AUDI.

Was in Kingston today and saw a swatch for Monsoon Gray at the dealership. I looked at it in a variety of lighting and in the parking lot with the sun, it was 4" X 4" in size, and looked great, and when the Mustang Brown leather put beside it.... seemed like a perfect match.

Can't wait to see the full set of pics when you get it.
