Smile converted BMW driver of 26 years: hello Audi!

I finally made the move to Audi. I had been driving BMW cars since 1988.
3 series, 5 series, X5, all with manual transmissions
this last 2009 535xi manual was a lemon due to the HPFP/Twin Turbo malfunctions with engine failure at high speeds. This was the end for me.

I just got a 2011 Audi S4 manual, Black/Black, Sports Diff., B&O, Navigation, summer 19" , carbon fiber, badge,.

Love the car so far...I have to get winter tires now

Looking forward to meeting everyone

thanks

I an thrilled to be in my 2011 S4 stick.
This car puts my previous 2009 535xi and BMW's to shame.
I am sorry it took this long to get into an Audi with a stick and a monster engine.

pics to follow.....
