Got mine last Friday ...

[eressvier]

Hi Folks,

picked up my RS4 last Friday in Neckarsulm (convenient for me, live about 40 min. away).
I chose Avussilver wanted something more unobtrusive and easy to maintain.
I'm very glad to have chosen this color it looks great to me(and that's what's most important...).
Also have the Sports Suspension plus - me and all the people who have driven the car so far(including my dad who is really used to more comfortable cars) did not mention it was too harsh. I also test drove a SS+ RS4 and was very pleased with the ride.
Also ordered bucket seats - the are more narrow but ok for a slim guy like me.
My opinion: the RS4 was built to be a sporty car - so I think this is the right package.

What's really :
Broke my leg on 03/28 while skiing in Switzerland - will have to wait 4-6 more weeks until I can - I think you can call that bad luck

Cheers,
Rainer

Very nice and great set up

What a nightmare not being able to drive it. Be patient it will be even better

Congratulations for your choice!!Did you learn something more as you said (http://www2.rs6.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=8466) about "magic" 282 km/h and v/max limiter?

Sorry about the leg.

But at least you can sit down in your garage and admire her. That's not such a bad thing!

Thanks for all good wishes...
The fracture is a pretty typical skiing fracture...
So if everything develops normal I should be getting mobile again to 100%.
That's most important.

Forgot to write: the car is just fantastic.
Driving this car(even in the passenger seat) is a great experience and worth every cent. I'm sooo pleased.

@KK265: Yes I specifically asked my contact person from Quattro GmbH for the real reason to not remove the speed limiter totally. The answer was: 'Yes for various reasons blah blah...'.
So unfortunately not really an answer.
Rumours in Germany are the limitations of the wheels - I don't really believe in this answer.
The only answer I got from ABT in Germany was something with the transmission. Personally, I think everybody should be cautiuos- if Quattro, MTM and ABT all do not go beyond 282 there must be a reason for this other than just a general precaution.

I will try to do some interiour shot's - any special requests ?

Thanks for the pics, very nice.

Love the lowered look of SS+.

Sorry to hear about the leg but I'm sure you'll have no problem finding chauffeurs to drive you around and get through the run in period. Look at it on the bright side, you'll be able to drive it hard from the first time you get behind the wheel.
