Again, still not in the same class. The N54/55 wether applied on a two or four door car, is still FORCED INDUCTION, the IS350 is N/A. And the s4 being a faster car is a V8, try again.

The IS350 has the 3.5 NA V6. 335 has the N54/55 I6.

And the S4 is not a V8, it's a forced induction roots-style supercharged 3.0L V6.
2006 Audi S4 was a V8, and it was slow and sloppy. That's the year when I got my IS350 and I don't think that POS could smoked mine.

I stand corrected as far as the new engine on the S4, however I refer to my second post and seems no one has yet to come up with an engine.


So that you understand.

What V6 4 door car WITHOUT turbo or supercharger?

The 335i is twin turbo, the s4 is roots-style supercharger, the m3 4 door is a v8, the c63 also a v8....

If this does not burn oil, it's not a real Audi engine
