My friend just purchased a 2010 S4 and it's already in the shop after 3,000 miles. He needs his engine replaced. I would say I rather take BMW's faulty fuel pumps any day over having the engine replaced on a brand new car.
BTW, the interior on the S4 is very nice!

This thread is hysterical. OP what were you thinking? Why be so inflammatory?
I spend a lot of time over many years on many different car forums and yet still I am surprised at how defensive most forum members feel they need to be as it relates to their own choice (car forums in general, not a unique trait of MBWorld.org).
I truly appreciate the posts (and there are some in this thread) from other enthusiasts who have the capability to appreciate a great car no matter the badge.

I can't get enough of this comment posted about the C63 vs the M3. Just replace M3 with Audi S4:

The C63 has way more character without even trying. Its raw and unrefined without caring what anyone thinks about it. The M is fake and trys to compensate for it's lack of power with its handling. Last time i checked, we dont drive on race tracks everyday.
Don't even get me started on the exhaust note. That would be like comparing the bark of a pitbull to the bark of a yorkie.
Go with C63. It's a beast, not a poser. Enough Said.

you know what, alot these arguments could be replaced with
"i drove _________ and wanna get one". the arguments would be the same wouldnt they be?
the reliability argument? really? theres no "know for" garbage.
i think people need to grow up, theres areas where there c63 isnt king. i know shocking right?

you should re-read some of the **** thats been typed in here. remove audi, and replace it with any car maker you care to. it will be completely applicable in another forum or when comparing another car
for example, if i said i just drove a cts-v, same **** would be spewed

. I thought it felt slower than the e46 M3 which also made 333hp but without the SC.
Yeah it's slower, because it weighs about 800 lbs more than an E46 M3 and they have roughly the same power. That's always been Audi's achilles heel to me. The quattro system makes them heavier than their rivals, and to make matters worse they are underpowered compared to their competition. And on top of all that they are typically more expensive than BMW and Benz for the same performance. They look great, have beautiful interiors, have status because everyone knows they are expensive, and they are a great car for a doctor's wife.

you consistently the b8 s4 is running 12.8-13.3 in the 1/4? and that the car is consistently dynoing over the 333hp @ the flywheel?
you re-think your garbage?

i think the main point is something that's a little more comparable. IMO the cts-v would be more comparable with the c63 than an s4. and like others have said, the rs4 or rs6 whatever. but i doubt any car maker can fit in there like you said.
it wouldn't make sense to stick in Kia for the car maker... and then the kia bashing will begin... mostly because it just doesn't make sense.
and it probably wouldn't make sense to stick in Bentley for the comparison either...
