      ​@@KevG It's good, but there are some stupid caveats, like the piano black panel around the transmission selector. Had to cover in PPF, otherwise, it is a scratch magnet.

    loved the b8.5 supercharger but the interior & exterior styling on the new b9 S4’s are absolutely gorgeous. Also cool to know that a b9 has insane tuning potential and I was looking to get a b9 s5 sportback over the s4 but they’re the same thing.
    anyways I made the decision ima get a b9 s4 2018-2019 if I get a good deal on them it’s hard to find good prices over in ILLINOIS. I’m limited to a lot of b8.5 and the b9’s are a little too much in price well over $40K

    I was nervous picking up a 2021 s4 with the gas mileage but I was pleasantly surprised to get on average 500kms a tank. That’s with Manitoba Winters which is as bad as you can get south of the territories! Stage 1 as well

    Yes all personal preference but, I love the 2018 front end better than the 2019(Or 2020+ for that matter). I have actually never seen an S4 without B & O. Our B9 S4, although gets "Okay" MPGs due to winter blend crappy 91 gas? Gets way better gas mileage, than our 2020 STI lol

    • @KevG
      @KevG  Před rokem +1

      Definitely surprised me when I saw it didn’t have B&O. And yeah I like the 2018 front end but heard some 2018’s had lifter issues and didn’t want any risk at all. Great car overall!

    Been watching a lot of S4 audi vids lately and im kinda leaning towards tryna to get one. I'm not too familiar with their reliability but when looking for a used one how many miles should i be aiming for. I currently drive a 2009 Nissan 370z with over 120k miles.

    • @KevG
      @KevG  Před rokem

      Personally I’m looking for 2018+ under 70k for reliability. Gonna be best bang for your buck for the B9’s if you want to keep the car long term. 2013-17 is also reliable around same mileage

    • @KevG
      @KevG  Před rokem +1

      Interior is great on both. Few upgrades worth it on the B9 like interior. You get the car play, bigger screen, better lighting, massage seats, updated look, and a few other things.
      The supercharger is fun, both the B8.5 and B9 have wild potential for power gain. You can make 500hp on the supercharged platform

    Owned one for 3 years, its alright, I became really bored of it after like 7 months though, even with a tune/mods, it's just kinda bleh, plus the seats kill your back after like an hour, whats even crazier is, I owned a W204 C63 and my B9 S4 had worse gas milage then the C63, which was pretty bizarre honestly, I had the C63 for around 8 years and spent around $15k on gas total, Spent over $20k on gas in 3 years on my S4 and I barely even drove it (Had 45,000KM when i sold it)

    • @KevG
