I’ve been working at Audi for 5 years now. 3.0T is one of the best and reliable engines for sure. Only known issues is the coolant systems. Thermostat, front coolant pipe , water pump. Really not hard to replace any of those if you have good mechanical knowledge. I’ve worked on Q7s and S4s with over 200k miles and it’s still running great. The key is to buy one with good service history and not modded at all if possible. You can’t trust anyone’s work except yours

With the E92 M3 you have torque on all the rev band, it is enough where you don't fight it. The e92 is simply just a benchmark along with the E46 M3. I have e92 M3 (2012 ZCP). Recently my daily got rear ended (2011 E90 328i LCI). So I'm leaning towards a couple cars: b8.5 S4, E90 335i LCI, Mercedes e 350 sport. It's a hard decision.

Oh Adams Because the B8 RS4 wasn't brought to North America. It's sort of the closest logical competitor, even if it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. People did the same thing with the M5/E63 and C6 S6.

In the last, the M3 and S4 would have been the competitors here in the US. The e36 M3 and b5 S4 were similar. Same story with the e46 M3 and b6/b7 S4. That did change when the e9x M3 and b7 RS4 came out., though.

What is the difference between the ultracharger and the standard dual pulley upgrade?

I just bought a 2015 s4, most were around 30k depending on options / mileage.

so I got an e93 M3 and its a pretty cool car, I get compliments pretty often. but i keep looking at s4. you can pick them up around 20-30k and its more mod friendly than an M3 there really isnt much you can do to an m3 other than bore out the engine, supercharge it, and exhaust these are all big cost installs where as s4 mods are cheaper if you want big power low cost then I would get a 335i with the n54 power plant, years 07-10. they can go up to 700hp

Before my 911 turbo, I had an E92M which I still miss to this day. The S4 is a great sporty daily driver, while the M3 is an entry level sports car.
