The 2005 Audi S4 is one of the best cars I have ever owned. Even though I picked this car up in 2013 and was the second owner, it has been so much fun since then and I think I got so much value out of it, that I would probably buy another one again. It has a lot of features, a nice, powerful engine, a rock solid manual transmission, and a gorgeous interior that matches the exterior paint.

My vehicle is a 2001 Audi S4, chassis designation B5. It has a 2.7 liter V6 twin turbocharged engine, and I bought it because I am a car guy, I love to go fast and have fast cars that are still luxurious. This car fit the bill perfectly. It is ridiculously fast but at the same time I would feel comfortable taking it on a long trip in luxury. The dislike that I have is that the car is very expensive to maintain. For example, I had to replace the alternator, which is a relatively simple task on most other cars, but on this S4 the whole front bumper needed to be taken off, and it was over a $1,000 repair.

I loved driving my S4, it made driving on long trips comfortable and a joy. The ride is so smooth that if you don't pay attention you'll be going way over the speed limit before you know it. The drivers seat is like the cockpit of a fighter jet, it wraps around your body so secure your for your next adventure. The clutch and the shift stick are smooth allowing you to take advantage of the upgraded suspension taking turns fast and nimbly. The car responds like a cheetah. The S4 even handles well in snow, the Quattro allows the car to thrive in any weather. I drove my S4 everywhere, it made driving a pleasure. It's a quality care for people who are not pretentious and value quality. A similar class luxury car would not have the same amount of amenities and "bells and whistles" without paying an arm and a leg to get everything. I would buy another S4 or another S class Audi before buying any other car. It's the kind of car that my wife and I fight over who gets to drive it when we go places.
