2014 Nissan GT-R Track Pack vs 2014 Audi R8 V-10 Plus! - Head 2 Head Episode 33
On this episode of Head 2 Head, Motor Trend's Carlos Lago pits the 2014 Nissan GT-R Track Pack against the 2014 Audi R8 V-10 Plus. Performance wise, both these all-wheel drive monsters represent the cream of the crop from their respective manufacturers. Nissan's GT-R comes out of the gate swinging with it's track pack, but the R8 packs a twin-clutch transmission as well as more power than previous R8's. In between some dynamic testing & canyon carving, Randy Pobst weighs in with his two cents as he joins Carlos at the Streets of Willow racetrack. Does Audi's V-10 goliath have what it takes to topple the legendary "Godzilla"?

Whenever a car manufacturer launches a new car it is worth taking a look at the outgoing model because cars at the end of their production life are often the best built.
A new generation of Audi A3 was launched last summer, so now is a good time to snap up a used Mk 1 bargain. The original A3 was launched in September 1996 and was positioned as an upmarket alternative to the VW Golf. Despite sharing many of the Golf's components, the A3 justified its higher price with superior build quality.
Even today the earliest cars fetch close to £5,000 and are usually still in excellent shape.
Initially only available with three doors and petrol engines, the A3 soon had diesels added to its range, and a five-door version was introduced in August 1999.
All the petrol engines are reliable and capable of high mileage. The cheapest are the 101bhp 1.6 and the 125bhp 1.8; the 1.6 works hard if the car is loaded, so the bigger engine is far more desirable.
The addition of a turbocharger to the 1.8 litre in the T Sport model Boosted power to 150bhp. The extra power and torque make this the most sought-after petrol A3, but beware of used examples that have had a performance upgrade "chip". The extra performance is often gained at cost to engine and turbo life.
More powerful is the A3 T Sport quattro with four-wheel drive and 180bhp. The additional power compensates for the weight of the quattro system, so it's scarcely quicker, and you pay a penalty at the petrol pumps.
For ultimate performance there's the S3. Again with quattro and the 1.8 litre engine, this 210bhp model can reach 151mph and hit 62mph in 6.6sec. A tribute to the car's desirability is that early-1999 examples still fetch around half the original new price, so expect to pay £12,500 for a decent example.
If fuel economy is important, diesels are the obvious choice. Despite there being only one engine size, there are four power outputs, and the 1.9 litre unit is frugal and refined. Audi has used different injection set-ups to achieve 90bhp, 100bhp, 110bhp and 130bhp — all versions capable of more than 40mpg.
Cars built before July 2001 have either 90bhp or 110bhp units, and the more powerful engine adds about £500 to the value — money well spent. In July 2001 Audi increased the power of both units to 100bhp and 130bhp respectively. Again buyers will find a £500 differential exists on used examples, and again it's worth paying the extra. The 130bhp version is a stormer.
The A3 comes in three trim levels: unbadged base model, SE and Sport. All have alloys, alarm, antilock braking and front airbags. The SE gains climate control, a front armrest and a useful split folding rear seat. Sport models are distinguished by larger alloys, lowered suspension, sport front seats and a sunroof in the place of climate control.
With the new Audi A3 now in the showrooms dealers are bound to be handling more of the old versions in part exchange, so now could be the ideal time to pick up a great deal.
VITAL STATISTICS
Model: Audi A3 1.8T Sport
Engine: Four-cylinder, 1781cc
Power: 150bhp
Transmission: Five-speed manual
Fuel: 36.2mpg (combined)
Acceleration: 0 to 62mph: 8.2sec

Climate Control: A desirable option, standard on SE models

Quattro: Expect to pay £1,200 extra for quattro (4x4) models. The system also increases tyre wear and fuel consumption
Water pump: Prone to failure on early 1.8 litre models
Facelift: Post-September 2000 cars have revised bumpers and headlights
ESP: Electronic Stability Program standard on facelifted cars
Alloy wheels: Standard on all models, Sport derivatives get larger rims and lowered suspension
Rear seat: Folding seat standard but split/fold seat not fitted on base models
Door lock: Cars built after July 1998 can be distinguished easily by the deletion of the passenger-side door lock
Security: Central locking, engine immobiliser and alarm system standard, but check the deadlocks work properly
Safety: Four-star Euro NCAP rating on post-August 1997 cars when side airbags became standard
Bodywork: Galvanised body must be repaired using genuine Audi-approved panels

415hp Wagon S4 vs 275hp Cayman, With Chris Harris - /TUNED
Matt showed up in t he UK to bother Chris, and over pints, got into a discussion about the "ideal" amount of tuning for a daily driver, as well as whether we'd rather have a fast sleeper Audi or a slow 2013 Porsche Cayman. Agree with us?
► Audi's automatic driving for parking
Audi's automatic parking systems operate by means of either ultrasound or cameras, which display images via the onboard monitor. One particularly convenient solution is park assist. When backing into a parking space, it performs all the necessary steering movements; it can handle both parallel parking and parking perpendicular to the street. The system finds a parking space with ultrasound sensors that scan the roadside in two dimensions while driving at moderate speed. The system notifies the driver via a message in the display once the sensors have found a space which is large enough.
If the driver wishes to park in the space, he or she shifts into reverse and the park assist system takes over the steering. The driver must accelerate, shift gears, and brake. When parallel parking, the detected space is large enough if it is about 80 centimeters (2.62 ft) longer than the vehicle itself. Park assist can perform multi-point parking maneuvers and also offers support in leaving parallel parking spaces.
Another technology from Audi is the parking system plus with surround view cameras. Four small cameras -- in the single-frame grille, at the rear and in the side mirror housings -- record the vehicle's immediate surroundings. The driver can call up a variety of views on the large onboard monitor, including a top-down virtual view. On corners or junctions with an obstructed view, the system can analyze cross-traffic otherwise invisible to the driver in front of or behind the vehicle.

2013 Audi S4 AWD vs 2013 Volvo S60 T6 AWD R-Design! - Head 2 Head Ep. 34
On this episode of Head 2 Head, Motor Trend's Jonny Lieberman pits the 2013 Volvo S60 T6 AWD R-Design against returning contender, the 2013 Audi S4. Before hitting the road, the engine placements of both competing sedans are compared against segment contemporaries such the Cadillac ATS & BMW's 335i. Why? Because while both competitors are AWD, they start life as FWD. As a result, both vehicles have unusual engine placements. A mix of limit testing & canyon carving follows as Jonny provides insight on both cars, examining everything from driving impressions to interior ergonomics. Does Volvo's beefed up S60 have what it takes to dethrone Audi's "sleeper sedan?"
