Buying the 2011 Audi S4
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2011 Audi S4 for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page sets out the 2011 Audi S4 for buyers, in plain words.
What to check on the S4
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA has 26 owner complaints on file, mostly about power train, engine and electrical system. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.
Under the hood
Its powertrain is the 3.0L 6-cylinder supercharged with all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.
The combined figure, 11.1 L/100 km, means roughly 33 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, it costs about $19.43 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,900 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
When the S4 makes sense
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Space and size
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. At 368 litres, the trunk fits about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
A longer test drive
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent first, buy later: a week with the S4 answers the big questions.
Which one to look for
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
Money matters
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $194.30 at our price setting.
