We had an 99 A4 (B5 platform) with the 2.8. Good car, but I never got the connection or the community feel I have from my BMW's. Even when I got into the network, any technical question I asked was responded to with chirping crickets.
Had an issue with the ABS system. It was a soft recall by Audi, but our car was just out of the warranty so no fix. Lucky for us a wannabe drifter drifted through a turn and hit our car right at the front door/a-pillar. Totalled. Insurance got us into a 99 E46. Slightly better car, but I can at least ask technical questions and recieve better answers than "take it to the dealer".
Tuned S4 or RS4....either one is good in my book. A friend used to own an S4 with autobox and he showed me the effectiveness of Quattro in the rain. I was impressed.

1991 325i - sold :(
2004 2WD Frontier King Cab
drove a 2004 S4 at my work, 6 speed, recaro interior...
4 cam shafts, 4 liters of displacement, 32 valves, that thing zips, sounds like its supercharged it had this strange whine too it, but of course its not.
and the other day i saw a hartge RS4? i was in awe it was pretty dope....but like the techs at my work say its just an expensive VW
The first gen A series, hell yeah. The current, meh. The front ends are fugly, the rear end is too tall, and aside from that they look like a late 90s version with an allergic reaction. (Puffy and swollen.) Thanks, I'll pass. I will say the first gen RS6 was kinda cool. Now, thanks I'll take my M3.
there is one i see around my work occasionally. has aftermarket exhaust. the tone is drop dead sexy. sounds better then the R8 i also occasionally see.
Had an 06 a4 s-line, fully loaded, was a very nice car for a daily driver. Good thing I leased it, didn't have to do anything on it everything covered and it had a few problems, one with the adaptive headlight and one with high pressure fuel pump. Great interior too, better than BMW or MB imho.
Same here. Had an 07 S-line, Ibis white with black interior, fully loaded that I picked up with 7k miles on it. Had no major issues, anything that did happen was under warranty. Loved the car.
I have driven several S4's, and also an S5. Have no issues with Audi's, and I also own a Mk5 GTI that I cant complain about.
