in regards to what?
I can hit 200hp+/litre easier in my FSI than in a 2.7T. Hell, come spring I'll be at around 300hp/litre.
Everything in the B6's and up gets more refined compared to the B5.
Tuning the engine management is more advanced than these B5's.
The body is alot more solid.
There aren't a ton of parts that break compared to the B5's. (Audi obviously learned some lessons after the 2.7T k03 cars that were released)
So I'm just curious what you mean by the B5 being better than all.
Trust me, I'm not going to stop building the B5's, but the amount of hassle and money involved to get over 200hp/litre is not fun sometimes, considering you want to have some reliability too.

Get the fvck out of here with your sensibility and reason. This is the B5 S4 forum, we don't play
that sensible reason sh*t!
:P jk. You're largely right, I rly like the B8 and enjoyed driving the new A4.

haha...
as the B5's get older, I think some people need to realize they're dumping loads of money into something that just may not be worth it. Don't get me wrong, I do like the fact that we all want to keep the B5 alive, but I wouldn't discount the new platforms being really exciting to work on as well! It's just a bit ignorant to say the B6's and up are nothing compared to a B5 unless you really have your hands in the new models.

... well also the new models are still $$$ ... and id be hesitant to mod
something with so much value
whereas the b5 is dirt cheap now, and still a nice luxury car (when maintenence is up to date ... )
