Default Audi A4 1.8T

One of my friends wants that car badly so i saw a black one dropped on some 19's with tints and an exhaust. It looked nice and i was checking it out when the guy must of thought i wanted to run so he took off. I reeled him in like he was in reverse. Man is that car slow. Most civics put up better fights than that. I stopped at 95 and was several lengths ahead. I like that car, but for the price its a joke performance wise. Next

seems more like a car you would pimp in and drive slow than drive fast. If you want to drive fast get an rs6 haha.

a4s have about 500 more lbs than an s2k, not to mention the 1.8ts are only 150 hp. i have the 2.8 and trust me, that thing is hella slow. and the car is expensive cuz its got 4 rings on it

Haha, I had one pull up next to me at a light and and try to race me. The light turned green he floored it, although not going anywhere, I took of very slow, then dropped the hammer, he was gone, out of sight in the rearview so fast. This was in the STi btw.

I've taken 2 of them in my daily driver, a 94 Probe Gt w 124 k miles. At least they look nice and the awd corners well.

I can't argue with that....

I own an '03 Audi A4 1.8T with an E05 turbo upgrade and it's still slow. After spending thousands of dollars for the looks and performance....I'm getting a new car to suit the extra need for speed. My friend has an A4 as well and he's going to buy an Integra for his need for speed- LS turbo, I guess.
