RE: S4 review



the new s4 is based on the a4 and is a twin turbo 2.7 v6 with 30 valves
and 2 charge coolers. there is no s4+.  there used to be an s6+ which
was a europe-only v8 s6 (100).  the normal s6 was the i5 turbo.

the new s4 has been very positively received by the english press.  car
preferred it over the euro m3, and performance car called it "the
successor to the ur-quattro"...

it will not fit the i5, which is now "dead" as far as audi is concerned.
