2006 Audi S4 25quattro - Driven from Fourtitude.




Autumn is coming. The leaves are starting to turn and the morning air is crisp. With this change in season, the year of quattro’s 25th Anniversary enters into its twilight. 25 years ago, the first quattro products powered onto the scene and Audi will cap the celebratory year off with the delivery of 250 special ‘25quattro’ edition S4s like the one seen here.

For now, the 25quattro tested is the only one in the country. Audi had a prototype built for its debut at the Quail event during Monterey’s legendary automotive gathering in August. Up until now, the only photos of this car have been relatively unclear of the car’s detail. So here’s a closer look, a virtual walk-around for those considering this limited edition S-car.

With only 250 cars slated to be built, there’s only one package spec for the celebratory car – pretty much loaded.

Those keeping an eye on European models will notice the body changes from the standard North American S4. This Audi’s bumpers have been changed, utilizing kit first shown on Europe’s special A4 ‘DTM Edition’, named for the Euro-only DTM racing series in which a purpose-built V8-powered A4 competes. But unlike the DTM racer, the A4 DTM Edition is powered by a 2.0T 4-cylinder, perhaps making these limited S4s closer in relation to those German racecars...

I really think that this S4 is boring.
I don't like the body kit and I'd take the normal S4 over this one anyday.

Compared to RS4 body style, S4 does seem more plain. The main problem is the rims. Not distinctive enough.

I meant the stock S4 looks way better then this one. I don't like the front bumper, the rims, and the exhaust pipes.

I have a very huge issue w/ the design of the facelifted model, looks unbalanced and unproportioned. Too many superflous design cues, the taillights, headlamps and so on. Hopefull w/ the B8 they'll get it right.

Still the facelifted A4 does very well in sales. In june it had sold more than new 3 series ( not to mention C class which was a distant third) although i haven't seen sale numbers after that.

the new 3-serie sedan sold 85% more cars then E46 in the first month (sedan only included).
http://germancarzone.com/showthread.php?p=2142#post2142

so the sales for A4 must have included Avant and S version as well?
