The best all year round car

2005 Audi S4 quattro AWD 4dr Sedan (4.2L 8cyl 6M)

This is by far the perfect all year round vehicle. The 340hp pulls you courteosy a 4.2l v8. I came from an 01 s4 to the 05 and there is a dramatic improvment all throughout. Handling is like a knife, acceleration is scary, interior is very smartly designed with everything in easy reach. Seats offer excellent support and comfort. I have not one complaint about this amazing machine.

The positives of this car are that it's very quiet with the top up, and even surprisingly quiet with the top down, it has great performance, is very comfortable, handles nicely and is fun to drive. The paddle shifters are perfect for mountain driving in Utah. I'd say this car has been the most fun of any car I've owned, and I've owned an Austin Healey 3000, an MGB, and a Morgan among others. The only real negative has been it's reliability. Nothing too major has gone wrong, but about every third time we take it out for a weekend cruise, something else goes wrong. Over the 10,000 miles or so we've put on the car, we've had trouble with the passenger seat airbag connections, O2 sensors, top operation, broken power steering hose, coolant leaks (requiring replacement of the radiator and several hoses), and one of the quarter windows had broken cable connections. So far I've been able to fix everything myself, but now the power mirrors, windows and top have all quit working (probably the comfort control module) and the radio appears to have an internal short that drains the battery over night. Plus the minor engine oil leaks are becoming worse. We bought this car in 2016 with around 140,000 miles, just for fun on the weekends. I knew there would be some risk with the 4.2 engine's reputation for eating timing chains. All has been fine in that department, but the little things breaking just never end. I'm at the point where I simply can't keep up with the things that are constantly going wrong. It's time to trade it for a fun car that we can enjoy driving instead of one that's broken most of the time.

I have owned a lot of vehicle and would have to say that my s4 is by far the best I have ever owned. the accerlation is mind boggling. The car handles at high speed better than my old m3. The sound of the motor is music to anyones ears. especially over 5k on the tach.
Unbelievable

It's like a cat - can be soft and purring, can be lightening-quick and aggressive. I'm still in break-in period, so I don't push it to the limit, but I am yet to hear the wheels spin. The traction matches that of a Panzer. Some people know what "S4" means, but most don't. Imagine faces unsuspecting friends who test-drive your "new Audi" :))
Most practical in its class

Similiar to the M3 and CTS-V except it offers all wheel drive, which is huge in areas where you get poor road conditions. Highly recommended.
