Damn nice, a good way to have an EVO without the ricer admiration factor... :P

Any idea on MSRP?

I think the S4 is the one I am thinking about but I dont really know audis because I know it will be a long time before I can afford them.

Yes, it would be the S4... Bi-turbo V6 in the early 2000'*, V8 in the newer ones. Or the RS4 and RS6, with the V8 in them. Those are fun. Only issue is that they still weigh in heavy.

Having a friend with an EVO and one with a 350z and another with a STI, all not stock, I like the Evo the best so far I have to say. If only the tranny would stay with the car.
