B8 S4s are sexy.. If you plan on keeping the car for long, it's not very wise to buy the first model year of a german FI car (i.e. 1999 S4, 2007 335i, etc)

I want this car:

have you guys seen the dyno graph APR posted of the new S4? Audi underrated the shit out of that motor... the car put down 330 HP at the wheels... thats almost 400HP at the crank :eek:

your pt is right, but when the road is dry and the sun shinning, any car with rear wheel drive & LSD will put the most smiles on your face:)

4 wheel drive is way more practical for Vancouver weather as a daily driver, but I would rather have two cheaper cars...one for fun, one for commuting.

xplosive: holy shit, that's the first time i've seen the APR dyno for the new B8. i love how audi underrates the 2.0TFSI and the 3.0S/C engines like crazy!

damn, now i want to get myself into some debt for a S4 now :(

(i was originally planning to do a cash purchase on a B7 Avant from the states..) decisions.. :(

Yeah, I'm definitely avoiding the first year model of the S4 or any car for that matter lol.

Wow :eek: from what I can remember, the 2010 S4 beat the 335i but not by much though..

xpl0sive 10-30-2009 02:21 PM

thats because 335i puts down 300hp at the wheels... which was also advertised as 300 CRANK hp... if they tested it against the 335xi, the gap would have been a lot larger...

S4

if money wasn't an issue.

V8, AWD, More Seats, plus the 350z is old now,if it were 370 vs S4 it'd be a bit harder to choose.

Want a sports car? 350Z

Need to haul friends/family around? S4

I vote 350Z b/c of the sporty nature/athleticism. I believe the Z has sharper response/handling than the audi. I've driven a few A4/S4's....never liked the sloppy feeling. Sorry Audi fans, but my vote goes to the Z.

S4 all the way. You can always get the APR tuning done which will create a monster.

maybe consider a boser hood if you go with the S4...
