No, not the A2, the S2...
You won't find that car on the audi.com site, it isn't made anymore. It was a turbo version of the Coupe Quattro. They were made for Europe only from 1990 to 1996. They put out between 220 and 230 hp, depending on the year. They were available in Coupe and Sedan/Avant body styles. Lower, stiffer, faster and made in really low numbers. (S2 Coupe - 306 cars / S2 Avant - 1812 cars Audi AG figures)
0-60 5.9 secs (Audi figure)
Top Speed 148 mph (Audi figure)
Super sweet car. Too bad they never made it to this side of the pond. Oh yeah, and the RS2 was a Porsche tuned Avant version of this car, if you can imagine that.

Re: what is the S2
Hi!!!
I am happy to say that i own a -95 S2 Coupe...
It's a turbocharged version of the ordinary coupe. I uses the 5cyl engine and has 230bhp from -93, earlier models had 220bhp. Another difference is that the newer ones uses a 6 speed gearbox....all S2 models is equipped with quattro.
There were a total of about 7000 cars build, all models included. The sedan is the most unusual one, only ~300 cars....

I think you are correct Christian...
I pulled this from the s-cars.org FAQ, and I think it is missing the Coupe numbers. I must have misread it the first time in my haste to post the numbers:
How many S2 automobiles were produced?
S2 type B4 limo - 306 cars
S2 type B4 Avant - 1812 cars

Info gathered by Hans-Juergen Schneider
So what that means, with 7000-odd S2's made, is that the US Coupe Quattro is a MUCH rarer car? Cool. Makes it easier to put a bit of effort into my Ginster Yellow '90 CQ.
