Yeah are you sure it wasen't an S4? An A4 should be nothing close to a "race" Even a stock S4 will loose pretty good.

This is totally irrelevant but, I rode in a friends S4 and that car was really nice, from the interior to the way it drove.

I liked it.

yeah...had a thread about it on here...cant find it though. basically he was up my ******* on the highway...soon as traffic cleared he went to burn around me and as soon as his rear bumper was at my door i just stomped it and didn't let off till 120. as soon as he heard me romp it he floored it. that's a completely abridged version of what happened...i'll try and find the thread.

the audi had atleast an exhaust system not sure of anything else...but here goes...driving on the highway and this dick pulls up on top of my rear bumper and stays there for like 2 miles...traffic finally opens up and he goes to the right lane and punches it i give him till my nose is at his door then slam it down into 3rd at about 65 and immediately stop his pull and start walkin him...put like 2-3 cars on him before i shut down for traffic...the ******* pulls up right on top of my rear bumper again at like 65...traffic clears and he does the same thing...he shifts into the right lane and stomps it...so i give him till my nose is at his rear door this time and i make it a point to not shut down till i had buses on him at like 120...i shut down and roll all my windows down as he gives me the ricer fly-by so he could see the 3 other people in my car...

a4's seem pretty weak. I ran brand new one (2008 1.8 turbo with paper plates) this year coming off a light (it came down to being a 5-40 mph roll race) and it just wasn't a contest.

A4s are not worht the gas. Even if gas was 50cents/gallon.

S4s are really not worth the gas either considering they run 14.0 per Audi. And their top end blows donkey *****. From 70 and 80 mph punches, I was walking past him like he had an anchor. Hell that particular S4 was only slightly faster than the STOCK STi that tried to race me from an 80 roll!!

Stock, yes...but try running some modified cars. I have a couple buddies with A4s w/ larger turbos that put down between 325awhp - 350awhp that'll give you hell from a roll going off the mods off your sig.

As for an S4 w/o top end, a modified car will run in the highway. Stock (no chip) has no chance against an LS1 from a roll.....but stock is no fun. Trying running a K04'd S4. That'll be more fun for ya.

S4's are FAST up until 2003!!! After that I dont like the 4.2L v8 they came out with! Its not cheap to mod! I've actually seen prices to mod this car up over 15-25k!!! That is WAY to rich for my blood!

Yea. They kind of priced the modders out when they went to the V8. Tha'ts what kept me from switching. It's a nice engine and better car out of the box than my old V6 bi-turbo car, but forget about cheap go fast parts. They do have a S/C coming out, but I just can't see spending 5 figures for it.

Now if it had something like an LS3 in it, I'd be all over one.
