I think you will need to drive them. I expect they will have very different characteristics in the way they put the power down. Either way, nice choice, I've always liked the s4's. Are you thinking avant or saloon?

I had a weeks loan of Gords Audi S4 4.2L v8 and I now have an Audi A6 Allroad 2.7L Bi-Turbo. This is a slightly detuned version of the engine they put in the B5 RS4.

Personally just for the noise and the grunt I would go for the v8. Smile The Bi -Turbo is nice too and does sound okay but if your not really into modding it then just get the V8.

V8...

(Neither is as quick as you'd think because they weigh the same as a small country and have fuel bills to match)

RS246.com to find out which ones blow up first and where...

They do sound special mate.
And the 1 that blew me off the road that day (shook my lorry as he raced a porche) nearly made me cream my pants lol.
However on my quest for things quicker than an rx8 I have found something very rare, special and unique Wink

Not going into detail in case it falls thro but I'll say this...
Twin turbo, tri rotor, 350bhp, rwd automatic Smile
And hopefully it will be with me on the tunnel run Smile
If not I'll just be very noisy in the rx8 lol
