2008 Audi A4 2.0T quattro

2008 Audi A4 2.0T quattro

Published January 14, 2023 by Carter

Audi continued its habit of strangely inconsistent names into the B7. In 2008 the S-Line package was a $2,000 premium. It gave you leather upholstery, brushed aluminum dashboard trim, sport suspension, and 18″ wheels – so, all in all a pretty good value. Today’s car appears to have been ordered with that package, but wasn’t. That’s because also in 2008, all A4s were outwardly given the S-Line upgrades and badges as standard equipment, and the standard trim on the A4 was aluminum (though, not brushed). Confused? Yeah, it makes a real S-Line car hard to spot. However, this one was also turned up by STaSIS; the actual details aren’t clear, but it appears to have the Touring Package – including suspension, exhaust, and 19″ wheels. It makes for a pretty tidy package, but though this particular A4 has just 53,000 miles there’s also one really big drawback:

1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe

Some cars just have all the juicy details. Today’s car is one of those. This is one of many G-Body Porsche 911 Carreras, but I can probably guess it is the only one finished in the very rare Lagoon Green Metallic over a leather-to-sample interior … and over 276,000 miles on the odometer. Where to even begin?

I’ve said it before, but there is such a thing as too much when it comes to design and colors. Maybe doing 11 different colors on your build is about seven too many. Just because they offer it, doesn’t mean you should click the little box. Today’s car, a terrific 2020 Porsche 718 Spyder, maybe falls into that category of doing too much. Take a look and you’ll see what I mean.

2023 Audi RS3

2023 Audi RS3

Published January 8, 2023 by Carter

I was slightly amused to watch a recent Jason Cammisa video, where a new RS3 soundly walked an S3; making the argument for its existence if nothing else did. Of course, I found it really funny that a 200 thrashed both of them easily! Nevertheless, the song of the RS3 was as impressive as its performance. That’s thanks to 401 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque from its turbocharged 2.5-liter inline-5 mounted sideways up front. It’ll demolish the 60 run in 3.3 seconds, and can do a sub-12-second 1/4 mile on street tires. It even turns well thanks to crazy computer controls and its weird reverse-staggered tire setup (265/30 up front, 245/35 out back). The major downside? Well, it’s expensive. In fact, one of the few “free” (no cost) options is strangely today’s wild shade of Kyalami Green. Let’s take a look:

Class of ’23: 1998 Audi S8 6-Speed

Class of ’23: 1998 Audi S8 6-Speed

Published January 7, 2023 by Carter

Now that we’re into 2023, we can consider what new cars can come into the country. For me, that last few years has been spent pondering pre-facelift Audi S8s. Although we got the S8 here in “plus” form between 2001 and 2003, and it’s still one of my favorites, there’s some allure about the 1996-2000 cars in Europe. Why? Well, that was the model used in 1998’s Ronin and, for many, our first introduction to the model that at that time was not available here. The styling is slightly more subdued, as well – there’s less chrome, and especially in silver, the design closely resembles the polished-aluminum Audi ASF concept. In fact, it’s nearly identical. Under the hood was a development of the ABH (V8 quattro and C4 S4 V8), ABZ (A8), and AHK (C4 S6 Plus) 32-valve 4.2-liter V8. The AHC/AKH was utilized in the first S8s and cranked out 335 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque; down slightly on the “plus” 40v version in the US market, but still plenty. But there’s one more special reason to look at European-market S8s – the transmission.
