    If he's not oing to run it ragged, then the clutch will not be an issue until time takes it's toll. Later, QD.

    1400 where?

    Are you getting 2 clutches done on 2 different S4's?

    You can get a RS4 Clutch for 400

    Labor is around the 7hr mark.

    60 X 7 = 420

    70 x 7 = 490

    Do the math

    What shop do you know of that specializes in Audi's that will charge anywhere near $60 or $70 dollars an hour labor? Most dealers start off around $80 and keep going higher

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.

    buddy of mine got an S4 ragged it out and withing 2 months of owning it burned the clutch, my thing is this, DO not get a USED S4, remember the rule on buying a performance car, just like marrying a porn star, its been fucked hard way many times before you.

    Meh, not really a fan of the new SI's, and as much as I like a coupe, I really like the versatility and room of a sedan...and the new SI sedans are just...well, I don't know. I just plain don't like them

    Well, my issue here is paying $22,000 for a damn near 15 year old car, as well as driving something that someone else has, more than likely, beat the living fuck out of. Based on the mods done to it [upgraded turbo, IC, BOV, etc.] the car was raced. Like I said, I've got 1 car already built, plus I'm going to build the Si, so I don't plan on running my new car too ragged, and I don't want what is potentially someone else's problem. I really like the ITR, I found, I mean, it's completely virgin, and only 55,xxx miles, but meh. The more I look, the more I find better options.

    I'm kind of leaning towards StolenR's audi, if he's still got it when I get ready to move. I'm waiting on a bonus check from some work I did to use as a sown payment, and I won't get it for another couple weeks.

    aren't those normally over 20k?

    I voted S2k. Why? Because I own and drive an AWD everyday and let me tell you, parallel parking is damn near impossible in that SOB. RWD is best considering you don't really have to deal with Snow, Ice, Sleet...that sorta stuff. But in all honesty, see if you can find an 04 S2k, they produce more power than the earlier ones.

    E39 M5s are mid to upper 20's...a little out of his stated price range.

    They are great cars though.

    Good luck on your search.

    Twin turbo supra. you may be able to find an automatic TT supra for around $18k, and swap in a manual tranny... A friend of mine has a 94 silver TT 6 speed with 130k miles for sale. He wants $30k though lololololololoolooloolollol...
