Building an Audi the USA couldn't have | Owner Spotlight

  • We met up w/ Matt and his Fully S4 swapped B8 A4 Avant w/ a Manual swap as well! Both the donor S4 and the A4 were completely torn down to the bare shell, and everything from the S4 was bolted into the Avant! S4 Wagons do not exist in the US, so Matt made it happen!

    What I love about Audi is that the sedans and stationwagons are identical from the bottom up till the windows. Same goes for my 98 A4 Limousine. Got doorpanels, seats (Except rear seat because of a different latch system) all from an Avant. A year ago I got some complete front suspension from, you guessed it.... an Avant. Oh and my steering wheel came of an A6 C5 Avant 4.2 which is (And sounds) cool

    Great job fella. As an S4 owner and seeing the gearchanges, I really feel that your stick shift is wasting power, due to rev drops between shifts and of course wasting power equates to wasting fuel.
    Who can change gear quicker than semi autos etc (we have auto, auto sport and paddle mode - all in one) its terrific, and very well mated to the V6 engine, which is great to live with.
    Respect to you for getting it done - can only imagine the man hours involved in the wiring alone.

Why wait and life is never a guarantee either on how long you will live. So if you can make one now and enjoy it. Why not?...
