The RS4 was a great car and I miss it. However when we needed a sedan we always drove the CLS. My wife does not drive manual very well, and so the car just sat there. I take a train to work and so my driving is limited to nights and weekends. (kind of like free minutes on cell phones). The only complaint/issue I had with my RS4 was that it consumed a lot oil during the first 5000 miles. It ended up being 1qt per 1000 miles. Audi has stated that this is normal during break in but it worried me. The performance and interior in the RS4 was excellent, so was fit and finish. I would seriously consider getting a RS5 if they made a convertible. I traded my 04 M3 Cabriolet for the RS4 and would miss the open sky feeling. Now I am hoping I have a car for every occasion so I don't see any new purchases for at least a few months.

I tend to go through quite a fe cars, my previous being:

2004 Nogaro Blue S4
2004 Pheonix Yellow M3 Cab
2004 Infinity FX45
2004 Nissan Murano
2004 WRX Sti
2005 Audi TT Coupe
2002 Corvette Z06 (Lemon Lawed)

I kept the S4 and M3 for quite some time because they were great cars to drive. I only recently traded in the S4 for the CLS.

I'll update with some photos of the AM as soon as I can access photbucket.

Thanks for the tip on the roof module!
