This is one hot A4 we came across on Teamspeed.com It’s sporting a new Lusch grill, which looks great tying all the black together across the car. We’re not sure on the suspension but the stance really sets it off and the BBS aren’t to shabby either. We’d love to see a set of Black Edition Ch’s. Head over to Teamspeed.com for more pics.
- Turbocharged 4-cylinder 2.0 TFSI and supercharged 3.0 TFSI six cylinder make the list
- Audi placed on eight of the past ten “10 Best Engines” lists

Audi earned top honors for two engines on the respected “10 Best Engines” list from the editor of Ward’s AutoWorld.
Both the turbocharged four-cylinder 2.0 TFSI engine with the A4, and supercharged six cylinder 3.0 TFSI engine for the sporty upgrade S4 model impressed the Ward’s editors. “This year’s list embodies how the industry is responding to demands for higher fuel economy and lower emissions without shortchanging performance,” Ward’s AutoWorld Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter said. “Auto makers are using innovative designs and advanced technology to boost horsepower and torque while downsizing engines and increasing efficiency.” Continue reading ‘Two Audi FSI engines make Ward’s “10 Best Engines” list for 2010′

We haven’t found anymore info to back this up but to kill off a great car and BMW M3 killer?
When we saw this news on the web we said that it isn’t true and we contacted our source from Ingolstadt to tell us something that could dismiss those reports… Unfortunately there were true… Audi killed the plans for a RS4 successor due to poor sales. And this is not the only bad news: the German manufacturer also dropped the A4 and S4 convertible… It appears that these moves came because Audi wants to focus on hybrids and environmentally friendly vehicles. So, of you want a sports sedan, you will have to choose the 2010 Audi S4!
