My Germans

ShopVac · 09-26-2020, 03:31 PM

As I rejoin my new 'non-troll' status on Bimmerpost (had an E92 that I sold about 5 years ago - just found myself still hanging around even after Audi ownership) thought I'd whore the new ride.

Picked up my M4 yesterday (flew to NYC and drove her home). White with a 6MT and sunroof, comp, exec.

Here she is with my Stage 2 S4 (and V-Dub in the last one) - also both manuals. Eventually the M4 will have a similar fate at the Audi, just takes time...and money.

At home German car line up....

Great pics. Congrats!

Just can’t go wrong with German cars, but I guess I’m just somewhat biased.

M4 looks phenomenal. Congratulations!

Was going to show my other Germans - but then you said cars.

Do have a few some from the tail end though...

I really like S4s so unassuming

Nice ride, good to see another AZ'r here.

Looks like we've both been here a for a while.

Glad the wife is letting me keep the S4 too, so I'll stay out there.

AR_Motorwerkz · 09-28-2020, 08:20 PM

Awesome new ride, congrats! The S4 is sick too. Which one takes the crown so far?

ShopVac · 09-29-2020, 09:04 PM

S4 is tad quicker today...but its about as far as it can go (runs a 11.89 with a manual). Dropping more money at this point may only grab a 10th or two...and the aftermarket is limited for the s/c. I'm expecting much more for the M, picking up on where I left off with my old E92.

Nice run, I achieved an 11.42 on my S4 manual but limited by traction on street tires. Are you planning to mod the M4?

Absolutely. I'll research before making snap decisions. There were many items I bought twice on the S4 trying to shortcut of save.

Nice S4 Shop! What year model??

Tommy L Garage · 10-01-2020, 07:48 PM

Lovely stable !
My buddy had a stage 2 S4 (you probably know him - orange wrapped b8 - Lucas) and it was beautiful and fast!!

When it comes to modding your M4 - I say stay away from cheap carbon fiber, spend money on quality suspension and don’t worry about bigger brakes.

Thanks - it's a 2014 B8.5. The front end and tinted tails make it look more like the newer ones.

I know him, he goes by Lux on AZ...know his car well.

It's similar with the Audi - cheaper carbon ends up looking like butt down the road.
