I disagree Mr. M. The S cars are actually well placed within the Audi line-up occupying a
niche that is neither a simple, optioned-up, sport package on a regular model nor that of an out and out performance car.
The value proposition behind Audi's S cars is that for a just a little extra you get something a bit more special than a mere "sport package". So, in terms of character there's a distinct impression of sportiness coupled with exclusivity whilst retaining the easy-going luxury (and easily accessible performance too!) that most owners in this bracket desire. S cars aren't M or AMG beaters but rather sit on a rung lower. This makes them an enticing and more exclusive alternative to, let's say, an E500 Sport or 550i Sport, in this context.
