I have a 2000 S4 with approx 71K miles; LOVE it and have had relatively few probs. Be aware however that even regular maintenance, brakes, tires etc are expensive for these cars. Not any different from Porsche types of prices, really.
This car has a 1bar GIAC chip and a bigger rear swaybar but is otherwise stock. It handles well and will walk away from most other cars on the road - torque is beefy with a totally flat curve from 1800-5000+ rpm.
The only replacement candidates on my list right now are an RS6 or possibly a MB E55; but I have no burning desire to get rid of the S4 unless/until it turns into a money pit...100K miles might be it.
