[s-cars] URS4 vs Biturbo S4

[matt ludwig]

With all due respect JR,

I would argue (and let the gods just bring it after 'send' is hit) that 
the UrS4 is only a 'money pit' in terms of upgrades/tuning/mods and not 
of the breed i am assuming you are implying as one w/ constant breakage 
and annoying upkeep. I know we have UrS's on the list here w/ many, 
many 100s of thousands on the odometers and they are just getting 
warmed up so to speak. I am not going to through a soapbox opinion out 
there about the NeuS4 as I really only have fun time experience with 
them, but I do know those V6's like to loosen up over time from all I 
have read.

Sincerely,

matt ludwig.
1995.5 S6 Avant
