G feel so slow after test drive an 05 Audi S4

Damn, My mod cell just got tickled and my pride just got squashed. I promised myself I won't spend any crazy money in modding my cars again except for wheel and exhaust to look good but after I test drive my buddy's 05 S4 with the V8. Man, I feel like a turtle now. I used to always own the fastest/most expensive car among my friends and now I am been beaten. I know my glorious days has ended when I start to pick my ride according to my family needs. The marriege has taken away all my fun money but I love my family so can't complaint. I just keep wishing or dreaming that I should of bought the 545i or an used 03 M5 when I was shopping for my sedan back in 04. I keep loosing sleep over this ever since I test drive the S4 last Saturday and thats why I'm posting here to let it out. F#$k, F$%K, F#$F. Sorry about the language. I'm still upset with myself. Nissan, Where is my GT-R!!!!!!!!

S4 is overrated. it FEELS fast. times for that car are 5.6 for 0-60's. also AWD helps alot off the line. They are boatsss. ive raced a B6 S4, older body, but same engine and weight. nothing changed for the new ones besides quad exhaust look. theyre still EH and have electrical issues

Just remember that there will always be a faster or nicer car out there no matter what you get, but chances are, there are no other people in this world to replace your wife and kid.

And yes those S4's are bad ***...

lol its hard to be impressed with any other car Paranormal when you have such a sick car with some F/I your car cannot be compared to an M3 or S4....but M3 is still by far better than the S4. S4 is just too heavy. has a great launch but thats it. even with the 340hp V8 it weight way too much.

So you drove a 340 hp 4.2l V8 AWD car costing one third more than your car, and are disappointed in your car. Funny, I drove brand new M3 and came away realising what a great performance luxury bargain I have sitting in the garage. Cup half empty, or cup half full?

Cheers,
Derek

Sorry for my bad math. A G is 50 here in Canada, and an S4 is 75. I meant 50% more, not a third.
