Default they r pretty even due to the weight difference taking a ton away from the 4.2....a 2.7T would be

ideal for both handling and power. That V8 would want to pull ya off the road in the turns.

There's quite a few in Seattle....the exterior alone makes it worth getting the 4.2 over the 2.7T A6

plus, you think the S4 has had turbo issues.....the A6 2.7T makes it look like a Honda.
