Audi S2 Saloon information

Currently there seems to be 4 pcs S2 Limos in Finland.

Don't know how many there are in Sweden but I'd say at least as many as Finland. Anyway, Fatty, you are wrong. Sorry, but the B4 Sedan never had the problems that the B3 had. A B3 is like a beaytiful women missing the rear-end and quite frankly, those front arches are like once size too small ****. They are there, but there not quite ok. The B4 body looks much more put together and therefore it only needs a BMW lip. The B3 needs more meat at the rear end to compensate for that rather large nose, hence a bigger wing makes it look better. So, B3 - no rear end - big wing needed. B4 - nice rear end - no point in big sushi wing.

I bought this car in july last year....
i dont know how many of the 306 who became streetcars.....but i`ve heard that many was used by audi in racing

This guy hasn't been on here for a good while, more's the pity.

Some up to date good quality photos would be cool.

Bumped just in case anyone knows the car.

Yup, also, I heard that Merc had something to do with that veto as Porsche was also working with Merc on the W124 500 E and both Merc and Porsche agreed that there should only be 1 300 hpish 4 door sedan..

Sorry to drag this thread up (again) but, I wonder if you (or anyone) can substantiate that story with a hard reference? It would be good for the "history" book about the S2.

Porsche and Mercedes did indeed work together on the 500E sedan. When that contract was up and the Zuffenhausen production line that the the 500E was built on was free, the next project was the joint venture between Porsche and Audi to build the RS2 on that production line. Not sure what the time between those two contracts was and whether there would have been any opportunity to do discuss a 300 hp S2 or not.
