I think I would still be driving my S5 and would still be buying my RS5 but an S model avant would be a great car for the wife.

You're saying I want a lady's car? LOL! I see how this is going…

S's do amazing in the snow, even fairly deep stuff.

I used to have an '01.5 (B5) S4 and I loved driving up to the slopes with it. With the blizzaks on you truly had to make a concerted effort to ever lose grip with the road, and that was when I was pushing nearly 400 whp. Loved driving it, hated the maintenance costs so I got rid of it and now my boarding rig is my old '97 F 150. In about a year I'm going to be facing the tough decision of ordering a new B8 S4 or picking up a clean B5 and going all-out with a 700 whp build.

No I think they are badass. But here in Colorado I've never seen a man drive an Audi Avant. Maybe 1 or 2 here and there but the majority of the drivers are women.

For all those mentioning WHP figures for their cars (in this thread and the other car thread)... Hands up if you have actually had the car on a dyno!



BTW - my hand is up... 288 RWHP and 290 lb-ft of torque on my old MR2 Turbo. That was a fun car!

I've seen plenty of men driving S4 and S6 Avants. I will agree that most of the A-model avants are driven by women, though.

I would love to have an RS6 Avant. TT V10? Yes, please.

EDIT: poutanen - yes, it was dyno'd, though I have a feeling the numbers were very generous, haha. I don't have the sheets anymore but I think the numbers were about 375 whp/385 wtq. I think in reality it was probably closer to 320/360 judging from other cars with similar mods.

I'm sure 300/300 in a little MR2 is a blast!
