I missed my old Audi S4, so I picked this up. It's a B5 RS4, the twin-turbo model.

It's heavy, AWD, understeery, turbo'd, and station-wagon - the exact opposite of the GT3. Yet both are amazing fun to drive, and I think they are somewhat complimentary.

Info: B5 RS4 (twin-turbo, K04s), Avus grey, ABT tuned from the factory, 420hp, all options + carbon trim. I will be un-pimping it slowly - black wheels, yellow calipers, fast n' furious boost gauge, lowering springs, smoked taillights, and blacked-out rings will all go. This will be a daily driver for now.

In another life and on a parallel universe, I had a 1.8L 400hp S3 tuned by MTM..




A rocket with an excellent motor, but generally speaking, a terrible car (heavy, understeered, Haldex 4wd that was neither a 4wd nor a front wheel drive, weak brakes, compromised rear suspension design etc)

During the time I was in Germany, preparing the conversion, I had an MTMed 700hp RS4 for a couple of weeks..
Similar experience with the S3 only a lot faster,with better 4WD and roomier..
I can still remember the turbos spooling in 2nd gear.. Straight line fun, with 4 adults and two dogs in the back!

Enjoy in good health!

Always wanted a B5 RS4...but obviously they didn't bring them here and it's a pain to properly recreate the rear fenders.

I still rock my B5 A4 almost every day. 200K+ miles and it's been one of the best cars I've ever owned.

OMFG. I really miss my B6 S4 V8 Avant, but still: Do. Want.

RS4 is Bad ***... I didn't know they had a V6 Variant. I had a friend that had a V8 one and it was cool but horrible on Fuel.. My Neighbor picked up an S5. That car is Hot but a bit impractical as a DD w/ 2 kids (he has).

I have my Audi fix annually. Understeer, but as sexy as they come.

I have an 11 S5 and wifey a 10 S4.....both lovely cars for DD's and fabulous fun in the winter. I prefer the V8 rumble in the S5 to the whiny leaf blower sound of the S4 supercharged V6. S5 rear seats are smaller than 997 rear seats...and the pickup truck gets better mileage than the V8 S5...joy to drive every gas sucking minute though

I'm on my 4th Audi, but never had an RS. Love them in the snow, a bit heavy for track work....except in the rain. I wish we could have had an avant RS4 over here... I had an S6 avant with a stick. Great combi-car.

I love the B5 A4/S4/RS4s.

Too bad RS4 never made it to the great white north.

AudiOn19s: Nice Sportecs - one of my favs!!!

We only had the B7 RS4 here, which was still a hot ride. The B5's were one of my fav's though

One of my favorite cars I've ever owned, still miss it to this day, 1995 S6, 2.2l turbo. Mine had RS2 turbo and manifold.
