Bryson Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Was sitting at the lights tonight and noticed a really nice 2007Audi S4 Convertible next to me. It shot off at some speed and made some noise from the V8. Has anyone come against one in their supra? how does it compare? Anyone driven one before?

tooquicktostop Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I drove a friends S5 a few weeks ago, amazing spec, really made my Supre interior feel dated, thing is even with the V8 it is such a heavy car it did not feel that quick, dont think I would fork out almost £50K or whatever the price tag was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 S4 estate beat the living cr@p outta me on the way to AFR yesterday. Out pulled me every time. Gave a big thumbs up when we parted too so they're not all cox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razza Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 (edited) 344BHP and 4WD, will no doubt have you off the lights and on bends due to the drive system, great sounding engine, especially if uprated exhaust on... I was very close to buying one of these and then thought with my head instead of my heart for once... however I've got the looks of the S4 (below) without the costs of running. Once I get a remap sorted should be on for 260BHP but still on 35mpg. I think the S4 would be around 18-20mpg.. It really does make the Supra feel old, but you'll never get the buzz of the supra hitting full boost on the 2nd turbo in the audi... However family head on it's great to have a boot you can fit things in and carry 4 people in easily in comfort, and the looks aren't quite as in your face... If I need an estate ever I'll get an old RS6 or S4, great cars. Edited April 28, 2009 by razza (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt k Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 (edited) Don't know about S4 but RS was pretty easy to dispose of with 1.0 bar and a rich fuel map when i first got the single done, think i was making 470 bhp before the remap.

razza Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 The RS4 is 444BHP I think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kslb Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 My brother-in-law has the S4 estate with a bit of tuning done to it and is making around the 380 mark. It feels pretty rapid but not compared to my supe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kill1308 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 The S4's and RS4's are pretty cool.... both can be tuned pretty well. From what I've seen the RS4's normally come in low powerwise on what they are supposed to be though.... still a cracking car, can get some half decent early ones for about £16k now.
