Hi all,
Not 914 related, but still German, so still good. I'm looking at an 1994 Audi S4. Seems like a real nice car. 227hp and all wheel drive from a turbo 5 cylinder. Every option you can get. It would make a great winter car and summer cruiser for long trips. I was wondering if anybody here has any experience with them? Any opinions, advice, tips? All comments welcome. Thanks, |

I am not familiar at all with the early versions, but I have a 2000 (B4?) 6-speed and absolutely love it. I got it used with 9K miles in December 2001, in completely pristine condition. It basically still is, now at 34K miles.
I had a few early problems -- a coolant temp sender, water pump, and intake hose had to be replaced under warranty. But overall it still feels very solid and has been a trustworthy and fun daily-driver for my 50 mile round-trip daily commute thru Malibu. I have seen the new B5 V8 car and am not sure I like it's styling details, although I do like the regular B5 A4's looks. If I had the bucks, I would vote for the RS6 as my 'ultimate commuter vehicle'. |
