A Fantastic Salon From Audi — I have only had this for one day and I can already say it is a fantastic car. Wow! First off this is a race salon in disguise. You have 420 horsepower matted to a 6 speed manual transmission. An automatic is not an option. 19” rims make the car look aggressive and massive front brakes provide you with plenty of stopping power. Last but not least – a 60/40 power split between the rear and front wheels. Audi has finally delivered a rear-biased car – yeah! When starting the car it growls. The V8 sounds ready to run and blipping it a few times will remind you what lies beneath the hood. Hit the S button and the growl deepens. Pure bliss. Audi has finally solved the steering/suspension problem they have always had. The car feels planted and firm with good road feedback. I feel that you can throw this car into corners with great confidence. The engine is unreal. Smooth, high-revving with a linear power band. The clutch is rather light and takes some getting used to. I am used to the Porsche clutch, which is a bit heavier. The overall ride is very smooth yet taunt. You feel the bumps, but not in a jarring way so I don’t feel this will be a tiring car to drive. I will post some more reviews as I continue to drive the car. Owner for 0 years, 0 months |

Rs4 — Comfort The RS4 is a bit firm for all-out cruising, but you pay dividends when you want to go fast. Batwing seats can be a touch intimate for fatties and the engine is noisy, but that's noisy good, not noisy bad. Performance It shifts. You'll find 0-62mph in around five and a limited 155mph top speed plenty - in-gear times are the real eye-openers. The 4.2-litre, 414bhp V8 with direct-injection is one of the best engines in the world - just hear it rev...and rev... and rev. Cool Even though it's a little bit old, yes this is one cool car. Quality As close to Audi perfection as it gets. Handling The Avant loses a negligible amount of handling capability versus the saloon variant, so that means solid Quattro handling and supreme all-weather grip. Can be a bit boring if you want to power slide though. |

Perfect! — It is the best car I have owned so far. Engine is smooth yet powerful with no problems so far. The overall quality is good and the traction in winter unreachable. I can only recomend this car to anyone. Unfortuneatly the fuel consumption is a little high with 18 liter/100km in town and 14,5l /100km in average. |

ProsThe IS-F before the IS-F. Still part of an elite club. Consfor 80k you could get a GT-R. Even used it won't be less than 40k in most cases.

The Most Known Un-known — This has to be one of the best known un-known super cars out there. The 4.2 V8 is a beast thanks to the wide body and all-wheel drive system. It may be heavy but it can still hang with the best of them. The draw backs is the coast of ownership and the price. The base price is in the $79,000-82,000 range when bought new. when bought used its still as much as $38,000-45,000. For those prices you could buy a GT-R or a 370z and still get the performance. Honestly, I love this car and would jump on one the second I could if at the right price. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |

2007 Audi RS 4 4.2 Quattro Review
ProsStrong, charismatic, and flexible engine that will make you sit in the garage before and after driving just to listen to it burble. Razor sharp driving balanced with a supple ride. Luxurious but still driver-oriented interior with all-day seats. World-class brakes. Overall...absolutely superior build quality and materials; take a look at high mileage RS4s for evidence. ConsGas mileage reflects highly tuned performance of engine...it's worth the sacrifice. Back seat is more of an option when your need room in an emergency...not a car for taking a second couple to dinner...unless you like complaints from the rear. Lacks "right-now" turn-in of some rear-driven competitors, but that's balanced by all-weather flexibility. Otherwise...motorized perfection.

Motorized Perfection...or Close Enough For Mortals — After wading through over 45 cars, typically moving from car to car every six months or so, the RS4 is the very first one I've kept for more that two years (closing on six now) and one that I cannot conceive of giving up. Hell, it even still looks brand new. Every time I walk by it in the garage it give it a touch...yes, it IS love. It's not the best at everything it does, but as a package for living, driving, and enjoying automotive reality...it's overall balance, performance, and quality are unbeatable. |

Service History Is A Must! — Nice car, it gets you there alright! If all cars where built this way, everyone, wouldn't mind paying for the fuel to run it! I may consider the Avant model next time, larger boot space is great for the long trips abroad, on those Swiss roads, great fun! |

Wolf In Sheep's Clothing. — Everything my 2004 Audi S4 was but better. It is lighter, faster and nimbler. Everything was improved from braking, handling, weight distribution, and power. I had an option to get the Lexus IS-F, but because the Audi is AWD, and a rare breed - I had to go with it. |

Love It!!! — Great Car! Acceleration given V8 420HP engine amazing, suspension uniquie, Finish/build quality super. Great interior but as noted by many center console/armrest needs to be raised to engage emergency parking brake. Not great on gas but as expected. Loaded version so beautiful carbon fiber interior molding, great leather seats. FUN to drive! Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |

Its Ace, Buy One If You Like Big Engine, Big Noise, Big Fuel Bills. — Awesome performance, poor economy!! ;) this car sounds insane at full chat, goes quicker than my 911 in a straight line, can be used more of the time in any weather conditions. Only issue is the generic Audi interior which, whilst very nice has no real distinguishing features from any other Audi A4 in the range despite being 20K more than any other A4.. Primary Use: Commuting to work |
