I drove past there last weekend and took a peek inside to see what they had. They were closed but inside was a silver Viper GTS, a few Porsches, and some Lexus'. Some of the prices on their website are off bigtime, so i would be careful. There are other car guys in that area who have great reputations and are well known. Kulu and Keith at Rennsport Calgary (beside Tunerworks) are two of them.

What year is the S4 and what are they asking for it?

Also, if you do buy it, let me know, I can probably help you with some things that will save you alot of money down the road.

it's a 2000 6 speed. 69,000 km. No idea on the condition of the turbos and oil lines. no idea what the f-hose, y-pipe and other issues are. they're asking 28,900 on autotrader and 29,999 on their web site :banghead:

Nice car! I am not a fan of those rims. By the looks of the picture they are sticking out past the edge of the rubber on the tire. If that is the case, I see some bad curb rash in your future.

well... one of the first things i'd do is sell those rims. i hate those millie miglia rims. I'd actually prefer stock S4 rims or maybe stock RS4 rims.

If you do think about buying it, take it over to Tune Dub which is just down the road @ 42 Ave/1st St SE and get it inspected. George the owner is probably the best one around when it comes to these cars and will give you the straight up goods, no BS.

That's the impression i had when someone first posted the website link on beyond, that it was run by someone very young, with someone elses money, and with no idea what they were doing (the way the images were set up, grammar, etc). Click on the showroom link, then to Previously Sold page 2, and at the bottom is a Dodge Van which sold for $21,000... Right.

BTW, if anyone from Richview reads this, the Ferrari logo in the opening flash animation will get you sued. They don't take kindly to people using their logo/name.

All his 2 year old porsches are priced about the same as a brand new 2007 one lol that is ridiculous. Unless there is something I'm unaware of.

for the audi guys. What's different about the 2001.5 S4s? I know they are more desireable but can't remember why?

I know the owner of this shop very well. We are good friends. Yes he is younger but he's very smart. All used car places are a little bit overpriced. You can always cut a deal though.

And he does know what he's doing and it is all his own money. He's a good guy and knows what he's talking about. And just because he can't spell worth sh*t, lol, doesn't mean he's incapable of doing his job.

It doesn't hurt to go talk and see what they can do for you!

Aleks: most of the major changes were under the hoods. re-routing the oil lines to the turbos to reduce the chance of the oil coking, the F-hose was eliminated, different programming in the ECU, i think ESP was added.
