About this generation

The only RS4 with a naturally aspirated 4.2 FSI V8 (420 hp) — offered as sedan, Avant and cabriolet.

The B7 RS4 (2006–2008) is a fan favourite and the only generation with a high-revving naturally aspirated 4.2 FSI V8 (420 hp at 8250 rpm). For the first time the RS4 came in three bodystyles: sedan, Avant and cabriolet, with rear-biased quattro.

Its sharp steering, bottomless V8 response and balanced chassis made the B7 RS4 a mid-2000s benchmark. Many still call it the best RS4 ever.
