Until now, we have
only seen ABT’s take on the latest Audi RS4 within controlled environments,
such as the tuner’s workshop. This car was spotted in traffic and we
must say, it truly stands out. You can easily tell this isn’t something to be
toyed with, whether it’s the boxy fenders, ultra-aggressive looking front
bumper or its massive quad-exhaust pipe setup that give it away as being
something very fast and very loud.
When stock, the
Audi RS4’s 2.9-liter twin turbo V6 will put down 450 PS and 600 Nm of torque. Back in February, ABT added an extra 60 PS and 80 Nm, taking the total output to 510 PS and 680 Nm.
A month later, they
followed that up with another mod, worth 530 PS and 690 Nm of torque, specifically, a 20 PS and 10 Nm improvement over their
previous RS4 project. To be fair, there’s no way of telling which level of tune
we’re dealing with here as far as this car is concerned, spotted in Nurburg,
Germany by ExoticCarFan.
Other mechanical
and visual features specific to the RS4-R include the sport stabilizers, height
adjustable suspension springs, 102 mm carbon tailpipes, tweaked grille,
chunkier bumpers, side skirts, the large diffuser and custom wheels, which you
can order in glossy black, matte black or mystic black. As for the interior,
the German tuner will add carbon fiber, plus a bevy of ‘ABT’ or ‘RS4-R’ logos.
