Dialogue with the devil

Wide Moscow highway, million standard-size streets and narrow passageways billion on a weekday rather reminiscent of seven circles of hell than a public road. This stems from the mass already unlawfully lined nauseam reason to provoke the usual constant traffic jams. All cars in this nervous movement is not a movement from point A to point B, but rather to redeem the penalty for any pregresheniya.I only one person in this flow freely, he sold his soul in return unprecedented power, and his name is now - Audi S4.Skazat owner that I was waiting for a meeting with the "devil" fireball - it does not say anything. At the appointed morning, properly dressed for a meeting with "Eskoy" - but it at least comfortable shoes, preferably athletic - I went to the place of cursing the lousy way vstrechi.Po weather, slowly but surely, all the roads harbor metropolis snowflakes, I only warmed searing memories of the previous generation S4 - with all its flaws at the time, but with great vivacity and good sense of madness. Increased the excitement and recent acquaintance with the other models, "Audi", marked by letter S and I RS.Nakonets in place, and she, too, I look at her, but she pretends not to notice. The deep black color attracts like a magnet, unearthly beauty rims 19th-diameter, shod in 255/35 low-profile tires, visually, as it were glued to the road car. Front bumper with pointed wings and aerodynamic rear bumper with a pronounced cone, lined with aluminum, hidden in the depths of his four pipe exhaust system - it all looks very impressive and vpechatlyayusche.I Still, I made the first move, pulled the handle - and it , the gods came down, winking at me in the performance of ognyami.Salon S - donor organ from the civilian version, richly flavored with hot pepper. Convenient and effective seat in the combined red and black with the active development of lateral support and integrated headrests, which is present on the skin of a reprint molded S4 will not allow the occupants to get tired even at the longest distances. Placers aluminum trim elements and sport steering wheel with red stitching and a familiar bukovkoy S at the bottom - so, perhaps, all that focuses on the turbulent disposition avtomobilya.Klyuch in a special slot, and a bright red arrow from the zero position make a victory lap on the dial. The adversary has already prepared all the documents and offers an elegant pen for signing the magic of the contract. Stroke on the paper, and driver's soul no longer belongs to him. On the other hand, pressing the gas pedal to the floor, he forgets about everything, carry on adrenaline the river far behind the line gorizonta.Nevolno the analogy with the previous generation S4, can not stop wondering qualitatively new sense of dynamics. Although the current engine in addition to the loss in volume from 4.2 liters to 3.0 lost on the way to 12 horsepower, a dynamic discipline only added, if you believe your passport, the new "S-ka" reaches hundreds in less than 5.1 seconds - is half a second less than the previous generation. And if the judge feels, and then even faster. I suppose that when overclocked to hundreds of it easily moves out of five sekund.Vinoy around - an innovative power plant V6 of 3.0 liters with a supercharger installed directly in the collapse of Roots tsilindrov.Povisshie block at zero on the dial hands will move uncharacteristic of gray. Clarity readings over dostatochnaya.Etot flaming engine capable to develop 333 horsepower symbolic and 440 Nm of torque in a wide range from 2200 to 5900 rev / min, which in tandem with a 7-speed automatic transmission S tronic, equipped with two raznovelikimi clutch provides confident dynamics without loss of power and more or less noticeable dips in the recruitment skorosti.Dovolno seriously reducing the displacement of the new unit, alas, failed spectacularly as to reduce its weight. Compared with the vast atmospheric "eight", installed earlier, the new engine is easier to just 16 kg. But engineers "Audi" would not have been him, if of such a transformation does not have benefited. And is it that a new power plant was much smaller, which allows you to integrate it into the body of the car much closer to the center, thus seriously unloading the front axle, which clearly had a positive effect on the controllability of avtomobilya.A handling of this machine can talk for hours, at present it as close to ideal for the operation of the vehicle by ordinary people who do not have a lot of jewels in avtosporte.K the above factors for the unloading of the front axle add torque distribution ratio of 60 back - 40 front and rear differential, active, capable, if necessary flexibility to transfer most of the moment on the outside wheel, thus literally dovernuv stern car in turn. The already excellent handling car "Audi" has become, more confident, bright and bezopasnee.Otdelnogo noteworthy system of setting the vehicle drive select, performing the function as a rapid shift modes: transmission, accelerator pedal, steering dampers, and personalization each of the nodes at the discretion of the owner. True, the mode dial and buttons are not the most convenient place, exactly under the control of climate control unit, and clearly for the gear lever, which is very difficult to manage the access function. But the algorithm change and, more importantly, the difference between the modes is a genuine delight. If the Comfort mode riding on S4 can easily be confused with running one of the civilian versions, A4, in Auto mode with heavy use of the gas pedal the car is transformed, showing little teeth. But there is a third mode Dynamic - all unlimited potential, and carefully packed into the back of a sedan D-klassa.Yarkim sunny day and the deep dark night S4 is ready to terrify all the surrounding vehicles, plunging them into a hypnotic sleep its smooth lines and a demonic sound of the exhaust system, maneuvering between them, as between static pieces on a chess doske.Esli you are ready for such a deal with the lord of power, this car is definitely your choice.
