I'll still smoke you with my B8 S4 and with the wind of the supercharger, AWE exhaust, cold air intake, at a fraction of the price, gives me way more joy and the sound is mmmm....100K for a car that looks super but don't perform the way it looks. Just a standard 8 cylinder. Nothing special. Looks amazing though but in terms or driving exp, performance, and sound. Nowhere close to my S4 😂 And it's just an S4.
@JWuCars3 ай бұрын
Im being honest here- i dont care if you are faster. In todays word too many people is in search of speed when speed can easily be accomplished by an EV. Im more looking towards an experience. Ive driven this car on many long trips and it has been dead comfortable, the engine sounds great and the interior touch points feels super expensive, thats about all I care from a car like this. Im looking more at diversity of experience, if i wanna go fast I got my Type R. But sometimes i just wanna cruise and feel cool, and thats when my 1985 Porsche 911 comes into play. The LC is mainly my parents car, and for them, this is perfect. For me, the LC is the perfect Pacific Coast Highway San Fran- LA car. Im sure you enjoy your S4 and loves it, and tbh I love a fast Audi as well, big fan of the B7 RS4 (especially the wagon/estate, which we unfortunately dont get here in the states), and I truly respects your opinion, but sometimes life is not about which car is faster.
@iuhshwth16343 ай бұрын
That's a very idiotic statement. Driving excitement comes not from being able to smoke somebody in a straight line with 1000hp, but rather being able to floor a powerful and fast car and realizing it won't drag you to the side of the road, giving you a smooth ride, acceleration, nice sound. The same reason M2 is better and more appreciated than M4, you can floor it and not only on a drag strip, and still be alive, that's where the fun comes. You can put all the crap in your shitty looking S4, be able to smoke anybody, while on the road it's completely pointless, break your S4 constantly cuz it got no reliability at that point, and pretend you won at life lmao.

Everyone complains about that but, for me, the last time I legitimately used a mechanical handbrake in such a way that an electronic handbrake would not work was when I was in high school sliding around in the rain in my Integra GS-R. lol IMO it’s overblown, an electronic handbrake is fine for like 99.9% of people.
@dav344 ай бұрын
@@SonikDethmonkey I don’t think it’s overblown. Handbreak allows us to make certain maneuvers that are un achievable without it. The way I see it the handbreak is a tool it can be used in a good way or a trouble making way which I see why lawmakers and manufacturers remove certain features that can be fatal. But for me removing a tool that allows the car to be maneuvered in a certain way is removing a performance capability from the vehicle, your removing history an “art” so to speak. They’re always on the look out on what to remove next limiting US on OUR ability to maneuver how WE want to maneuver and if we just keep allowing it we will look back when we sit on a self driving car and ask ourselves. “how the heck did we get here?” My response, “it all started with the handbrake “
