-=bmacd=-

That's what I was wondering!! :Q Wouldn't that be fun?

hah that z06 driver doesnt know how to drive with sh!t. He was like 1 second delayed on the light...wonder why the Audi beat him.
a 405 hp vette will beat a 400hp sedan if drivers equal sorry to say. A vette is alot lighter then that S4. AWD sucks alot of the power from the engine so not as much horses get to the wheels.
sure the audi beat him, but hell put in a ok of a driver in the Z06 and it would spank that car by a couple lengths...

Yep, the S4 is an incredibly reliable car- above average at worst. Who knows what happened at the beginning of the video (wish they would have finished explaining), but that car is the tuner's prototype- nothing is perfect. It belongs to APR, probably the nation's best Audi/Volkswagen tuner (Houston, TX).

Actually APR headquarters is in Auburn, AL. They do have a distributor in Houston though.
