very dissapointing if you ask me, hate the re-design
looks, well not sure really. I would have thought they were going to stick with current new A4 design but it just looks way different.
I think a lot of people will be keeping there S4s and going the RS4 conversion route. I would if I had one. Saw a Nog blue one recently - truly awesome looking

300+ hp and it's that slow????.......
damn, a Mustang GT with a whole lot less hp is as fast? So where is th technology????? With that hp it should be 0-60 in under 5 sec. (I realize the time given is 0-100km).

Heavy, Quattro, etc. But you are right, the #'s are sad for that...
But then again most Euro cars are better once they get going. Take an SL500. 0-60 6.1 est. But on the highway, those things are beasts.

For once I'm not impressed by Audi...
Not sure what to say.
I'd much rather see Audi raise the bar on performance sedans rather then play catch up.
E46 M3 has been out now for well over a year. Doesn't anyone think this was enough time for Audi to develop a proper S4 to topple that?!
I know that no official performance stats have been released, but 3,600lbs+ car and 344hp with the added bonus of a Quattro drive loss doesn't equal an M3 killer.
A fine car it will be regardless, but certainly not the formula I had envisioned for it to make BMW nervous at the knees. Sorry to see the 2.7T go.
