Don't forget the "smile" factor - I say a little debt is not a bad thing...you'll be motivated and work it off in no time....go for it...

my motto is you aint living unless you have some debt.

No offense apg, but a s4 is not a good car for u right now, unless u want it to live at a dealer. Ive talked about getting a s4 with some guys, and most tell me i will not be able to afford to keep it on the road. And i do most of the work on my car. Bottom line,Ive told u like 20 times, a s/c would be sick, id trade my car for a hooked up one. Its going to be more reliable and cheaper, and fast, When u were all said and done, and bolted on everything,race gas, and threw in a good driver, the car could prolly run 12.9s if u hooked it up big time.

Dude , hold on to that 2.8 for a lilttle more. Its still a great car, just cant mod it without 5 G's...
How old are you ? You many more years left to buy an S4, and when you do , you will appreciate it even more then you would now.

i know aboput the cost of repairs but i wouldnt call my car reliable, its in the shop at least once a month and its not cheap repairs, i think all but one have been over 500 and one was aroudn 2 grand (clutch, timing belt, watter pump). Heres the thing i saw i would get a s/c but i dont think i iwould ever drop 5 gs on something to put on my car i already have 80,000 mi and going up more and more. PLus a chipped s4 will beat a s/c 2.8 any time and its less to get that than a s/c. I know about all the problems with s4s ive been reading about them for a while. Both my parents say i should do it b/c it will fix all the problems i have now and give me more. Plus i would buy one with around 50,000 mi not 75k like i bought mine with. Also i loev my audi now but i will love my s4 just like i love this car and like i loved my stang. Plus this carwill last me thru college and i think that the repairs on this car will make me sell it soon anyway. And most of all the pros out way the cons and a s4 wil make me happy for a while and when i get sad i will buy myself a chip and maybe an exhuast. Right now im thinking of going for it but i still need to do some thinking i know. Im not gonna buy it in a week or so but im going to start looking for them.

i imagine most of u know my age but it just doesnt help my case and i would have to put my flame suit on but im 17. Yea i know, but now my dad and mom are pushing me to sell it and buy something else b/c of the problems i have had with it and to day i had another problem that i will post in another thread. It just makes sense money wise to buy a s4 rather than buy everything the s4 has and insatll it. The body kit alone is liek 1100.
