VIDEO: Yes, the 2010 Audi S4 can drift

When we drove the 2010 Audi S4, we praised the sedan's trick electronic rear differential for its ability to shuffle torque between the rear wheels to give the sensation, if not the exact effect, of oversteer. Unfortunately, our track time was spent in an e-diffless model, so we didn't get to fully exploit its potential around Infineon. However, hot-shoe Ignacio Perez did just that at Spain's Jarama circuit. After the jump you can watch Perez putting the new S4 into full-on drifts around the track with one nervous front seat passenger ... Read more →

REPORT: Evidence mounting that 2010 Audi S4 is underrated Jonny Lieberman

Review: 2010 Audi S4 brings back the boost, gives "S" a reason for being Damon Lavrinc

Paris 2008: 2009 Audi S4 armed and ready 1 year ago on Autoblog

We were never particularly fond of the last generation Audi S4. With 4.2-liters of V8 hanging precariously over the front axle, it provided adequate thrust, but never delivered the dynamic thrills we used to associate with the twin-turbo'd V6 fitted to the B5 platform. Apparently Audi agrees, ...

Spy Shots: Supercharged Audi S4 caught testing 1 year ago on Autoblog

It is, of course, no secret that we here at Autoblog like our horsepower. But what we like even more than that is good automotive sense and a great driving experience. And if we're honest with ourselves, we can admit that those don't always require a 580-hp V10. Audi appears to feel the same way ...

Audi S4 to get 330-HP biturbo 3.0L TFSI V6 2 years ago on Autoblog

Audi is returning to turbos in a big way lately. Look no further for proof than the RS6 Avant sporting a twin-turbo V10 producing 510 HP. The smaller S4 sedan, however, hasn't been force fed since the B5 version with its biturbo 250-horsepower V6. The next two generations were powered by the ...

Twin turbos return to the next generation Audi S4? 2 years ago on Autoblog

There is awesomeness to the prefix "twin-turbo." It could be a Briggs & Stratton Vanguard engine (awesome in its own right) that you're talking about, but prepending any engine designation with the modifier "twin-turbo" can suck all of the air out of a room. Owners of lesser cars just nod in ...

RR of the Day: 2000 Audi S4 2 years ago on Autoblog

It's hard not to get all hot and bothered when we see an S4 doing the three-wheeled tango around an autocross course. However, this particular S4 is putting down 387 HP and 445 lb-ft of torque through all four wheels. In addition to such prodigious power figures, the 2.7L twin-turbo'd Audi has been ...

Autoblog Gets Schooled: Part One 2 years ago on Autoblog

I remember the exact moment when I realized that I suck. I was braking hard into turn four, when the instructor ahead of me clipped the apex cone with the deft touch of an athlete, sending it into the air and onto the track. I drove through the cloud of dust in his wake and heard the small ...

POLL Results: RR of the Week - 11/6 through 11/10 3 years ago on Autoblog

The votes have been tallied for this week's RR of the Day poll, and we're this close to calling for a recount. The winner with some 600 votes under its belt (28%) is the mildly-modded 2001 Audi S4 of Julia Howard. The S4 had some pretty stiff and very interesting competition, which makes this ...

RR of the Day: 2001 Audi S4 3 years ago on Autoblog

The last generation (B5) of the Audi S4 was a force to be reckoned with. The twin-turbo 2.7-liter V6, coupled to the automaker's legendary Quattro system made the S4 one of the great sleepers to come out of Germany. Unfortunately, the combination of misplaced weight, a high sticker and a duo of ...

Tailed! Next BMW M3 pursued in California 3 years ago on Autoblog

SBEuroClub member Brooks Uhrig is a 2001 Audi A4 owner, but that doesn't mean he wasn't willing to put in some time chasing down a BMW M3 test mule he spotted near his Santa Barbara, California home.

2006 Audi S4 in the Autoblog Garage: Day 5 3 years ago on Autoblog

Prod the S4's loud pedal, and chicks and geese and ducks better scurry. With apologies to Messieurs Rogers and Hammerstein, Audi's 4.2-liter V8-motivated surrey offers a soundtrack that borders on automotive pornography. Fortunately, with 340-horsepower and 302 lb-ft of twist routed to the ...

2006 Audi S4 in the Autoblog Garage: Day 1-2 3 years ago on Autoblog

To borrow a phrase, Smurfin' ain't easy-- at least not for those hoping to maintain a low profile. Case in point: Our Audi S4 tester, resplendent in Gargamel-goading Sprint Blue Pearl Effect ($750).
