Audi S4: Project UrS4 by AudiWorld

AudiWorld is setting up a new project car: this time they take care of an old school Audi S4, also known as Audi UrS4.

The C4 bodied Audi S4 (AKA UrS4) is one of the best value to dollar project cars available on the used car market. With 227hp, 258 lb. ft. of torque and a 0-60 time of 6.2, the UrS4 is no slouch in stock form. With a few inexpensive mods the power output can be increased significantly.

Additional features of the S4 are quite extensive. These cars were, quite simply, loaded for their day. Some highlights are ABS, automatic climate control, dual power mirrors with memory, defog, tilt reverse, 8-way power heated front seats with manual lumbar adjustment and memory functions and a Bose Stereo with optional 10 disc CD changer. Full specs can be found in the Model Guide. The best news is that pristine examples can be had for $9,000 and fixer-uppers for as little as $4,000.

Project UrS4 was a bit of a fixer-upper and was completely stock. Formerly an Audi Canada show car, Project UrS4 had an interesting history. Some people may think that having a show car is cool, but smarter people will know that every Canadian automotive journalist had a good time beating the snot out it.

Project UrS4's previous owner was a reputed Bulgarian mobster who had just gotten out of jail and needed some cash. His face said run, but the price-tag said buy the car and then run. Finding another Cyclamen Pearl Effect S4 would be next to impossible so the trigger was pulled.
