This is my 2nd Audi S5 convertible, very quick 0-60 4.9 seconds, Quattro, great handling. Can fit golf clubs in trunk, back seats fold down, love the open air driving. Show full review. 1. 2. 3This 660 horsepower highly strung V8 was the weapon needed to topple Porsche at Le Mans, and its strong point was most certainly reliability – out of the 177 race starts that the R8 LMP enjoyed, only 14 ever resulted as a DNF, and not once was down to a failure in the engine department; incredible for an endurance car!
It doesnt matter if you baby it or beat on it, if youre concerned about gas mileage this isnt your car. The 4.2 has a longer front end by a few inches to accommodate the bigger motor and running gear for the V8. Also it has wider fenders because these cars are wider than a regular A6 2.7, or 3.0.
The Lexus LS (2012-2017) came in 4.6 V8 (LS 460) or 5.0-litre hybrid (LS 600h) forms. Both are incredibly refined, reliable and well equipped, but the Lexus is very rare. What to look out for
Is The Audi 4.2L FSI Engine Reliable? This engine is mechanically good. But the mechanical components are not always the ones that make the reliability of an engine. There are a lot of accessories that can fail on this engine and can cost a lot of money to be replaced. NX8vLu. 19 618 82 987 679 758 440 315
