Station wagons are often frowned upon in tuner circles as grocery getter projects that got out of hand. Not so much with this build. In North America, AUDI USA has blessed us by not releasing the B5 RS4 version of the ever popular S4 on our continent. Naturally some people just don’t take no for an answer. We can thank Adam McCarthy from Denver, Colorado for providing us with a good idea, on what exactly we’ve missed over on this side of the pond.

Take an alphabet soup of modification that resulted in 530hp on the dyno. Add the custom made all steel widebody kit grafted onto the donor car with clinical precision. The 19”x10” BBS CH wheels, which provide a deep dish effect wrapped with 265/50/19 Toyo rubber.

You get one killer grocery getter, which I wouldn’t mind driving to the supermarket anyday.

It is a rarity to see cleanly modified vehicles these days.  Rice seems like it’s very prevalent in all aspects of vehicle modification from custom truck to sport compact.

Proper modification of vehicles I guess is in the eye of the beholder.  All of us remember the local clean euro rides such as the green MKII MINT GTI, JP’s MKII purple job.

Those cars leave a void to be filled, by people souping up their TDI’s and other horrendous road hazards.  So every once in a while it is nice to see one clean clean Vdub, which lives up to it’s Volkswagen heritage.

All VW’s need is a clean set of BBS rims, a drop job and some funky exhaust.  Add some more toys and your car is done like dinner.
