Review: 2010 Audi S4 brings back the boost, gives "S" a reason for being

28 Sep 2009 09:56:00 PDT

Written by Damon Lavrinc
We'll just come right out and say it: Audi lost the plot with the last generation S4. Unlike the twin-turbocharged V6-equipped B5, its B6 and B7 brethren did little to stoke the flames in our collective hearts. The "S" simply stood for, "I paid more for a bigger engine and some additional trim....

Opinion: VIDEO: The Smoking Tire tests supercharged Raptor Audi R8

Written by Chris Shunk
With 420 horsepower, the "base" Audi R8 is a borderline supercar. But that wasn't good enough for some customers, so Audi began offering the R8 with the Lamborghini Gallardo-sourced 5.2-liter V10 powerplant with 520 ponies. Source: YouTube]Continue reading VIDEO: The Smoking Tire test...

The 2010 Audi R8 5.2 FSI quattro may drive like one of the worldâ€™s most exotic and exquisitely executed sports cars -- new V-10 engine, choice of six-speed manual or R-tronic paddle-shift transmissions, body design straight from Pluto -- but in many ways the coming U.S. version is very muc...

The last time I blew past the limits of my driving ability in a big howling V8 and hooned into a turn way too fast, I was at Altamont Speedway and I spun out in a most dramatic fashion.

2006 Audi A4 3.2 Avant Review

26 Nov 2008 01:53:59 PST

First impression of the car is its looks and the 2006 Audi A4 3.2 Avant makes a good one. Although not the only new exterior feature, the most obvious, of course, is the ’single frame’ grille, inspired by the Audi Nuvolari quattro concept car. The car’s front is now unmistakable. The A4 has also g...

2009 Audi A3 2.0 TDI - First Drive Review

Written by Mike Dushane(noreply@blogger.com)
The ritzy A3 compact hatchback, based on the VW Golf/Rabbit but with a much more upscale look and interior, has long been available with diesel engines in Europe. Now Ingolstadt is pondering offering such a combo in the U.S., too. The vanguard: two A3 TDIs that served as part of the Audi Mileage...

Written by Jack Baruth
Some of the younger Audi-forum readers are absolutely shocked that it’s possible to buy a car from Ingolstadt that isn’t utterly “tasteful” and “reserved”. How do I know that they’re young? It’s simple: they’re obviously too young to have ever seen the interior of a Seventies Audi, or eve...

Speed:Sport:Life Review - 2009 Audi A4 - Never before an A4 so long, and so longed for.

28 Sep 2008 20:53:33 PDT

Written by Jack Baruth
In a nutshell, that’s what Audi has delivered. The 2009 A4 is simply more of everything, whether we’re talking about rear seat room, horsepower, or iPod integration. It casts a shadow nearly the size of the original Audi 5000 and offers more than twice its power. The new interior has already r...

2007 Audi A6 3.2L, Part Two [Jalopnik Reviews]

04 Mar 2008 21:00:00 PST

Written by Chris Doane
The A6 I drove was fairly loaded, with a window sticker of $60,165. Is it worth that much? My guess would be no. 60 grand buys you an awfully nice BMW 5 series. A 5'er with a 300hp, turbocharged inline six, no less. That's 45 more horsepower than the A6. Don't get me wrong, the Audi is a great drive. But t...

12.5:1 compression on pump gas, thanks to direct fuel injection. Dry-sump oiling system (which is the main difference between the R8's V8 and the one in the wet-sump RS4). 420 horsepower out of 4.2 liters' displacement. Lots of cams and valves and incomprehensible German high-tech wizardry....

Jalopnik Reviews: 2006 Audi A6 4.2 Quattro, Part 2

05 Jul 2006 10:00:00 PDT

Written by Mike Spinelli
Exterior Design: ***** Consider the competition: Mercedes-Benz E-Class (too old), BMW 5-Series (too ugly), and Lexus GS (too boring). It's not hard for the A6 to be the best looking car in its segment, but it goes a step further and is just plain good looking. Not an easy feat for a large sedan.
