Very practical too. Have you scene that thing in the snow. It’s almost an S1. I think my Audi’s are better in the snow then my trucks or suv’s. Have you scene that commercial where the A6 drives to the top of the ski jump? There is also another one, the original one where a 100CS was driven to the top of that same ski jump. What other car can do something like that. Albeit there was an anti-rollback device used. They were both unmodified with only studded snow tires. A 37.5degree slope at 60kph is still an unmatched accomplishment.

I need a superfast, four-door, winter family sedan with AWD, 6-speed manual, and I have been pleased with my 2005 S4. So I have ordered the RS4 and await Roland Mayer's MTM-K540 conversion, hopefully available later this year.
This will complement my summer cars-my tuned 996TSCab with EVO's GT700 upgrade from the stage 4 occurring as I write this, and my Noble M400, now in Florida undergoing tuning up to 600-ish RWHP (an "M500"
), scheduled for completion by next month.

And I've got time before NEXT winter to get it broken in and tuned before then, and yes, where I'm from, we will have another long winter, no matter what Al Gore is hallucinating.
