Certainly falls in the "want" category on my end.

I think the only cars I took home without plates on them from the first moment I drove away were the two TDIs (Ohio and Texas). The Ohio car was due to timing issues (I just couldn't get to the DMV between when I received the papers and when I had to leave), but it was okay because Ohio required the transfer fee anyway. The Texas dealer was due to them being incompetent schmucks who can rot in hell forever.
And as much as I do like the Mini Cooper vehicles, I think they're not going to be so good with my spinal issues. But again, we'll just have to see how things go going forward and my perfect scenario would be to have no more issues for the next 2 years and by that time, the new 2023 models will be out for me to choose from. But, who knows if that will come true but with the low mileage I'm doing this year, a distinct possibility. Come December 3rd, it'll be a year that I started working 3.3 miles from the house and I've yet to break the 4K point for the year. So if I do end up working another couple of years, again a real possibility, that might be another 8K miles or so and as of today, I'm at around 65.5K miles on it. So, in a couple of years, I'll still be under 74K which works for me. And I'll have another couple of years to save my nickels and dimes.

I think Misano Red painted in Germany looks great in any lighting, from I-phone flash, to even a Home Depot parking lot, which was the duty for the S4 tonight. Was able to fit a 10'-2" long piece of base shoe trim, which is like quarter round, but slightly smaller. The TTS would have failed at this task to contain the long piece of wood trim.
Here it is - Merry Early Christmas to me:
I thought I had spec'd my original 7 years ago to perfection as basically the obtainable dream car, but I have to admit the following:
And I have to ask, what other direction would a backup camera face?
Top hits of stupidity...
(1) A large, unmasked gathering of people in a part of the country where COVID cases have exploded. In attendance were several folks who would be deemed high risk. On the next episode of WatchJRGo, “I’m a super spreader.”
(2) Doing massive donuts and burnouts in a confined space with many people standing around - including one person in a wheelchair who would have no ability to move out of the way if someone lost control.
(3) In case #1 wasn’t convincing, I’m sure standing in a building full of burnt rubber and diesel engine smoke without proper ventilation will really help keep their lungs in tip top shape.
I’m all for celebrating but come on...like one big cars and coffee ooopsie waiting to happen. There is a place to do crazy stuff - it’s called the track.

Gorgeous car. I didn't know you could get painted mirrors on an S4. I always thought the "tell tale" of the Audi S models was the Aluminum Mirror Caps. So just some quick math, your former S4 (that was backed into by a Lexus, not repaired to factory spec, & you were paid a DV claim on) was a 2013? This 2015 is the same generation? This is like the White One that @breld had, right?
I have always liked the A4/S4 cars. I saw a Black "regular" A4 with the Black Optic Package that I had to walk around to see if it was a de-badged S4.

Nobody is offended.
I LOVE the black optic package (@nyccarguy - that’s what gets you body color mirrors in addition to the unique wheels, black grill and black window surrounds...and yes, this is very much like my white one other than the 3rd pedal).

As long as you don’t expect it to be a Mazdaspeed3, sounds like a really nice compact car.

I let my wife drive it to her work with good parking spacing confirmed the first day, and she said more or less it was a "dude magnet."
What direction does a 360 Bird's eye view camera face?

The original S4 I had was a '14 that I sold with 48,xxx miles on it. Interestingly, this lower mile 1-year newer model with more options cost about the same, but of course, 4 years or so of inflation/depreciation went by.
If "factory spec" includes paint quality standards, then yes, it was never repaired quite right. The mechanics were repaired really well though. It also later got hit by a hit and run driver in a Costco parking lot that bashed in the rear bumper on the side of it.
Either way, it was fine. On the one hand the prior "old geezer" owner makes @oldfarmer50 happy that the car was not hooned, but on the other, all the wheels have at least some scuffing from curb rash, and one of the Pilot Sport A/S 3+ tires is "gouged." A bit more than a scratch, it has a small flapping piece of rubber on the sidewall, but it's not quite deep enough to reach visible cord/wire, so I think I'm OK.... though if there's one "beef" with the dealership, it'll be this tire; and the shipper noted the tire damage to sidewall on their "pickup" report.
I wish MB had such data, but as far as I know, they don't share it. One must wade through classifieds and see if anything similar exists. I did the same when I got the wagon - I found some close builds, but nothing identical.
360 camera faces down - that's a piece of what many will call useless tech that I like. Much less worry about curbing a wheel. Also, in these days of thicker pillars, a backup camera is a necessity on a new car anyway, at least for those of us who are mindful parkers.
I’ve never driven 300 miles and arrived with a car that looks like it was just detailed.
