Haha, thanks. The DSM is my bros, the Focus is my moms, and that prelude and the FC are mine.

Welcome!

You will probably find that many of us had NA S4s when we started ('87 for me) and then moved into S5s and/or turbos later.

Be forewarned, the rotary bug does bite!

I've always been a fan of S4's with S5 tails and black interior. Usually white, or there was a dark charcoal gray that my first FC was, and I've seen a few around. My favorite color.

Welcome man, stay around!

The black interior is the only thing that makes S5s worth anything. Other than that, S4 all day.

Can't forget the tails! I like the more modern look of them.

S4 tail lights look fine on black and silver cars. The just look funky on other colors unless they get color matched to the body.

And you're not gonna take me lol

I think my S4 tails look great on a blue car.

They do look pretty sweet on the blue one. But then again I like black accents on most everything. Even on red 7s.

and we'll see. Lol.
