Default B8 S4 Reviews/Comparisons?

Why can I not find any reviews or comparisons of the B8 S4 except for the late 2008 'previews' from Majorca?

There is nothing on the internets. Very little on the blogs and places like Jalopnik, TAAC, autoblog.

I've been watching the usual suspects like Evo/TopGear in the hopes that something might show up there, but nothing (unless I missed it when I blinked that one time)

so, what gives? Where are the reviews? Can somebody tell me?

The S4 has whooped BMW 335 and 335 all wheel drive pretty badly in German reviews. Performance wise. Half a second quicker than either one with 6 speed manual and 7 speed S-Tronic.

Honestly, I'm not interested in whupping anyone. I'm more interested in how this car performs as a daily driver. If I do decide to get one, it will see less than 1% track time.

Exactly! I want to hear about the S4 Avant real world dynamic's (other's might say that's the track) on both city streets and the highway.

Denver to Eagle county's ski play ground could be a hoot . . .
