2000 Audi S4 All Cars

CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA, Calif. — Classify Audi’s new S4 Quattro as a sporty muscle car tinged with precise German road manners and designed for serious driving fun by those who also may need the people-hauling practicality of a sedan’s back seat.
Derived from the A4 compact sedan but rigged with a powerful engine and six-speed manual gearbox plus a taut sport suspension and traction for all wheels, the S4 superficially resembles a conventional sedan: A streamlined three-box format of compact dimensions with hood and trunk tacked to each end of the passenger compartment, four doors and four wheels plus lots of window glass.
Look closer, though, and you’ll find subtle variations from the convention, like curt front and rear overhangs of a race car and over-sized tires taking up all space in the wheelwells, a blunt prow lined with massive below-bumper air intake ports and low ring of shapely moldings pinned below door panels.
To show it off, Audi adds several not-so-subtle paint selections, including vivid Nogaro Blue and our tester S4 coated in a screaming shade labeled Imola Yellow.
