Drove a chipped AudI S7. 560hp apparently.
I want one...just know it would ruin me in some shape or another.
Yes. Very fast and high on want list for me.

F my life. Been reading lots on them. Seem fairly reliable except for a major flaw.
The AOS (aka PCV valve) fails...very prematurely. And also the turbo filter screen set up is bad. Clogs easily. The failure of either frequently resulting premature turbo failure. $10k US for the whole job if you need turbos.
Like FFS, Audi...why such a stupid PCV set up? Oh yea...it takes about 9 hours to tackle the job. And while you're in there you're 100 percent checking the screens and vice versa. FFS...stupid German engineering.
Fortunately, someone makes an aftermarket remote filter set up so you can clean them at every oil change. $650 US.
But that doesn't alleviate the AOS failures. So 9 hours labor and $400 in parts as low as every 40k kms. Going rate seems to be about $1500 US.
Just a huge SIGH.
Liquid filled engine mounts fail early (60k kms seems normal) and some suspension bushings fail early too.
Facking Audi...
