I just wanted some opinions from you all about the differences between the old and the new in terms of build quality, performance(overall feel, not the numbers) and overall driving experience. The UrS4 and the Biturbo are completely different, but is the new one that much better? It seems like there are many UrS4 owners out there that could get a Biturbo, but are happy with their older cars. The UrS4 is significantly larger in terms of size and capacity, but that's not much of an issue for me. Any opinions out there? I may pick up an UrS4 or 200 20V in addition to my S4 Avant or as a replacement if I have to Thanks.

Just out of curiosity... would you mind doing a similar comparison between the S4 and the 300ZXTT?

I have had both, and there are many differences, and many similarities. First, the new S4 is lighter and more tossable. I had a lowered S6 suspension (ABT/Bilstein) MTM Chip, exhaust manifold, exhaust, etc.) It had serious turbo lag, and tremendous power. It didn't run hot, and was very strong. The luxury features were slightly above the new S4, especially given the time frame, built in voice activated phone, seat memory, reverse mirror mvmt., etc. But it needed a 6 speed, and only had 5, and the brakes were pretty poor. The seats were excellent, as was the radio/CD.
The new S4 is lots of fun to drive, and even with a chip, has relatively little turbo lag. It has a nicer computer, good seats, better brakes (for street use, comparatively), and runs hot. A UrS4 is a better value, and will last, but is not as pretty IMO. Headlights are much better on new S4. Hey, they are both fun to drive. What features are more important to you?
