2005 Audi S4 consumer reviews

I've had my B6 S4 for about six months now and it's by far the best car I've owned. Quick, responsive, stylish... just a great car to drive. It's a bit of a sleeper compared to other vehicles in the same performance range which helps with insurance among other things. I've got 80,000 miles on the clock and the car still feels solid. The only complaint so far is the 10 quarts of oil the 4.2 needs. I wasn't expecting $100 on oil+filter for each change. Ordering the filters online helps, but it's just something to keep in mind. The AWD system is fantastic. Even in 6" of snow the car just plows (literally) through - even with summer tires. The Ricardo seats are comfortable even for longer drives. Heated seats are also a plus. I haven't had any problems with the pixels in the stereo/climate controls. Back seat is a bit snug but it can fit a child safety seat just fine (my Goddaughter loves zipping around turns, it always brings a smile and a giggle). I get 19mpg on average when I'm not driving like an idiot but be forewarned, with 340hp and AWD it's really tempting to have a little fun... on a closed course with a professional driver of course.

Fantastic all around sports sedan.Classic looks,best interior in the business,awesome V8 engine,very smooth and powerful.Still faster than most cars out there except for true sports cars.Very reliable,comfortable,and practical.I would not trade it for a BMW,only its big brother,the RS4.

This car is great. German V8 is just unbelievable and all wheel drive is amazing. I will never drive anything else but the Audi all wheel drive. The car has plenty of power and stop signs have whole new meaning....:)

This car has power when needed, ample to be exact, tons of torque and the new Audi V8s are virtually bulletproof. Had mine now for 3yrs with zero problems. Had to once replace coil packs but its a simple and inexpensive task. (common Audi issue) Extremely comfortable,did I mention the never ending torque...two thumbs up!!! Audi did it again!!

It is truely a drivers car. I had been an owner of two BMW, (very nice cars), and I recently did an unthinkable thing by trading in my 06 330i for an S4 and wasn't so sure of the move, but I'm so glad I did it, and love every bit about S4. It is Truely an amazing ride..

This car rocks. If you test drive it - push it. You wont be disappointed. It simply runs. It likes to be pushed hard and in sport mode, it's downright scarey. If it had wings, it would fly. I've had 13 BMW's (Currently a 2001 m5) 4 Audi;s (currently an S4) two Merc's and a variety of second tier cars and this car tops them all - including the M5. It's not as fast, but the Audi is simply FUN. Reliability is a question for the older ones and maintenance is expensive, but when this car is right - there is nothing better to drive. I commute in it in the suits on the way to meeting, I kick it at 120+ Mph in my jeans on the weekends. This car is woerh every penny. Audi's dont hold there value, so I wouldnt buy one new, but I will keep this car for a long time.

a car that was fast,good-looking and 4wd for my new england winters...and also its yellow..lol..price was good considering its 5000 below trade-in value...probally because gas prices...which are going down thanks to god...

i traded in my 540 I for this, hoping to get the benefit of all wheel drive for these new england winters. I can't believe i'm saying this, but i also got improved performance for my hard earned dollars. I loved my BMW, but with all 4 wheels pushing, my S4 grabs the road and this car just scoots. the feel is also very solid.
