Few performance-oriented cars are as versatile as the 2005 Audi S4. Available as either a four-door sedan, two-door convertible, or five-door Avant wagon, it can be configured to whatever purpose you desire -- business car, commuter, family car, or weekend sport tourer. With the top-line quattro all-wheel drive, it is a sports car that can be used in any season in any climate, as the quattro makes short work of snow and ice with confident, sure-footed handling.
There were no major changes to the 2005 Audi S4, except for the addition of the controversially wide-mouthed new grille on the sedan and Avant. Sedan, wagon, and convertible come with a 4.2-liter, 340-hp V8 that features 303 lb-ft of torque. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard and 5-speed Tiptronic is optional. At the end of 2005, a new quattro system will be offered in the Avant and sedan, with a standard 40/60 front/rear torque split, though it will still adjust distribution according to road conditions.
Though not technically a sports car, don't let it know. Its classic exterior only hints at the interior power with a rear spoiler, 18-inch wheels, and subdued badging. The convertible features a power top with heated glass window and integrated rollover protection. The wagon offers fold-down rear seats to give you 63.7 cu-ft of room, cargo net and retractable cover. All S4s bathe you in luxurious leather and wood trim, with a host of power functions to make the driving experience easier. Sports seats and configured pedals and controls provide maximum driving comfort. Standard ABS, traction control, electronic stability, and front and side airbags enhance safety.
It's hard to find negative comments about the 2005 S4. Most focus on the cramped legroom in the rear seats, and the gas-guzzling nature of the car. Rear visibility is hampered in the convertible when the top is up. So what are the highlights? Just about everything, but most noticeably the speed, power, handling, and performance of the V8 engine. Drivers love its throatiness and the impressive acceleration. They love the versatility of the wagon, getting all the cargo space, yet not sacrificing sporty performance. The interior is well-laid out and the Recaro sports seats comfortable.

(28 reviews)This has been my favorite car. It's been pretty bulletproof during my ownership of it. It's fast but still relatively buttoned down. I would buy another Audi in a heartbeat. In fact, I will likely just buy another, slightly larger Audi as my next car.
Great car to drive. Handles awesome, very comfortable. Suprisingly good on gas mileage for a 4.2l v8 engine (20-23mpg). AWD is great in winter and on wet rainy days. Cars interior is very clean after the 7 years of use, outside has no dents or scratches.
The B6 Audi S4 Cabriolet is without a doubt the greatest convertible car I have ever had the pleasure of driving...and owning. With 340 horses under the hood, this car is pretty quick and extremely fun to drive. It handles just as well as the sedan version of the B6 S4 as well, and the braking is exceptional. What sets this convertible from the rest is the level of build quality employed in it, which is one of Audi's motifs. The tops goes up and down in about 24 seconds; there is never any wind noise or rattling when the top is up. The solid interior is quiet, with the roar of the engine easily audible. Finally, this car is sexy on the inside and outside; the polished aluminum really makes the car stand out. In short, this car is a blast to own and drive.
Erm 0 - 60 in 5.9 secs and top end of 155 sums it up although haven't managed to get past 145 yet (only joking officer). Usual audi quality, quality build, quality interior, quality feel and drive. 18 MPG but with 4.2 V8 under the bonnet who cares. This car rocks, test drive one you wont go back. Buy one and tell the wife its ' a sporty family car'.
Love the style and performance, unbelievable all-weather capability (and I've driven through white-out blizzards over the Rocky Mountains). Easy to drive fast, hard to want to drive slow. Worst gas mileage imaginable. Maintenance costs are like routine route canals. Will still miss the big V8's when they're all gone. I'm keeping mine as a hobby car as the world moves to sport hybrids and we all putter around quietly - - before the self-driving cars come and we're all reduced to passengers.
