I have wanted the coupe for a year but i realized i can not get one around the dc area...sadly...but true..i have chosen an s4 instead...any ideas?

 

Dude, an Audi S4 is a nice, nice car. Not as pretty as the G, but quick and a little more room. I say go with it unless your heart is set on the G.

 

S4's are sweet! They cost much more than the G but Twin Turbos are always fun, and you can get those cars deep in the 13's for cheap.

Sure go ahead...be like everyone else. Get an Audi. The less G35 coupes on the road the better.

 

The S4 is a great car. I almost got one too. But as has been mentioned I really wanted the G and a car that wasn't in every driveway. Go with your heart and you'll never be bitter about it! [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

my buddy raced a S4 over the week end in his SVT mustang beat the [censored] out of the S4 the guy ran a 14.8 and my buddy ran a 13.5 hahaha he should have know better than to fuc& with a V8
saddly i lost to the S4 i was not paying attention and missed the light my reaction time was 1.5 hahaha it sucks

 

What do u expect over a 390 horsepower mustang and a 250 hp s4, do the math. unless it was an old mustang.... whatever they are ugly and suck *** anyways. Except for the saleen(mustang)....

S4 dosent have much room over the G35 coupe. My cousin has one it has more head room but the back it pretty small. The car is nice blue outside with black and blue interior. The cars is fast as hell but G35C 6psd comes pretty close in performance. You chance the muffler or add a cai u can take the S4 with no problem.

 

Are you talking about the old S4 or the upcoming new S4? The new S4 looks to be a very nice car. And the new engine is simply awesome. About 340 naturally aspirated V8 horsepower with no engine weight gain over the old V6 twin turbo. Awesome.

And I grow tired of people saying you can just throw an exhaust and intake on some car and "beat" some other car. It just doesn't seem fair to compare *any* stock car to *any* modified car. If you spend $1000 in mods on your G35, why not also spend $1000 on the S4, and *then* do the comparison to see who "wins"? For about $500 you can get an APR chip for the S4 (or GIAC, or any other brand chip you want) and put it up to 307hp/366lb-ft at 91 octane. With 93 octane, you get 318hp/382lb-ft. All that for 500 bucks. If you want to spend more you can get downpipes and an exhaust system. Heck, if you want to spend six grand, you can get APR's stage 3 kit and put the S4 up to 412 horsepower and 482 foot-pounds of torque. Of course, you can get a big fat turbo kit for the G35 when they come out. Or buy a damn Civic and turn it into a 10 second drag car.

You see how futile it is to compare modified cars. It just goes back and forth. Modifications are virtually endless. For every mod some guy does to a car, another guy will have a faster mod for another car. There will always be more money to spend and more speed to attain. Once you talk aftermarket parts, just about any car can be faster than any other car.

 

The 2004 S4's are a lot better than the old ones. The new ones don't have twin turbo, instead they come with a V8 that outputs 340 HP and around 320 lb Torque.

I would get one but they start at around $45,000.

 

hey i would choose the s4, just don't have the money to buy it... i don't really have the money to buy anything, but hey... do what you want to do.

The S4 is an awesome car. Slap some K04s on there and your car will be filthy fast. You can hit the 12s on pump gas. Even with just a chip and exhaust will give you impressive power. My friend hit a 13.0 at California Speedway (1000ft elevevation) in 105+ degree weather with just the GIAC XR Chip and a cat back exhaust (stock downpipes). Audi's are fun cares, and if they had better customer service, I would still have one.

See ya on AW

 

Good call jreiter on the upcoming S4- it is targeted directly at the M3 and C32 AMG. In C&D's comparo in this month's issue, guess what- the new S4 stomps the other two. However, as pointed out elsewhere- that's a whole different snack bracket. While my pocketbook was able to cover a G, the S4 would only be do-able if we sold my wife's Accord. And with any of these cars, it's nice to have a daily commuter for the utility. The price diff between a G and an S4 almost enough to buy another car.
