    So my buddy and I checked out the B9 S4 this weekend. He owns a nicely modded B8 S4 and these are our thoughts!

    Just a few critiques; while I appreciate taking the time to make a video, a review without a test drive is a bit... lacking. You could have written out all your points here and it would not have taken 17 minutes.

    0-60 in 4.4 is class leading in its segment.

    The HP is the highest the S4 has ever had, while being the lightest it's ever been.

    Would like to hear a review after (or while) taking a drive in the car, like many European car journalists have already done.

    And pronounce Audi correctly . Thanks!


    ***Edit with some additional info. The S4 compared to the M3 until the B8, when BMW shifted their lineups (and created way too many variants per series), and then compared to the 335i (now 340i for 2017), which incidentally makes 320bhp from a 3.0L biturbo, and does 0-60 in 4.8. The S4 also competes against the C43, which is a 3.0L biturbo making 362bhp and 0-60 in 4.6. The RS4 is the proper comparison to the M3, with more closely matching price and engine outputs.

    If reaching for historical comparisons, here's the S4 powertrain evolution:
    C4 2.2L Turbo, 227bhp, 258 lb-ft
    B5 2.7L Biturbo, 261bhp, 295 lb-ft
    B6 4.2L NA, 339bhp, 302 lb-ft
    B7 Same as B6
    B8 3.0L Supercharger, 329bhp, 325 lb-ft
    B9 3.0L Turbo, 354bhp, 368 lb-ft

    The TTRS and RS3 were confirmed for the US a long time ago.

    The B9 S4 is going to destroy the B8.

    I didn't watch it after I realized it was just talking and not a test drive review.
