Hey guys,

A few weeks ago, my baby was hit by a red light runner, and even though the damage didnt' look to bad, it is declared a total loss. I saw some good deals on 08 RS4's, and was wondering if anyone had experience with them? I might perhaps just get another S5, but my options are open.

And if I don't get another S5, I pulled out my Audi Roof Racks, JHM Short Shift kit (only a few weeks old), 25mm wheel spacers. So I will probably sell them in the near future if I don't get another 5. I wasn't able to pull out my springs, Alcon brakes, and AWE exhaust :(

At least there wasn't any injuries, but it still sucks.

Sorry to hear that, Jimmy! Are you ok? I've driven an RS4 before. It's definitely a monster! Will it be an all purpose vehicle?

Good to hear you’re ok but sucks you car got totaled.

Personally, I wondered about what I might do if my A5 was totaled and to be honest, I would either replace it with an S5 with the 3.0T, or just go a bit bigger and think about either an CPO R8-V8 (can be had for about $100k). I would also look into a CPO Carrera, or 911 Turbo. Even a TT-RS would be intriguing.
