The 10 greatest Audi's ever made...

This article popped up and I wanted to share it with the Pelican community to get your feedback on what you believe are the 10 greatest Audi's ever made. This list covers all Audi's created over the past 100 years. Do you agree with the article or would you add/subtract any of what they listed?

The article is HERE and the notes added to each option they listed.

Here is what they listed:

1. 1907 Horch 26/65
2. 1938 Auto Union D-Type
3. 1956 DKW Monza
4. Audi Quattro (1980 – 1991)
5. 1994 RS2 Avant
6. Ur-TT (1998 to Present)
7. P2000 R8 Le Mans Prototype
8. 2002 C5 RS6
9. R8 (2007 to Present)
10. 2012 R18 Ultra

Let's keep this list to 10, but what would you change? I do not believe the list is in any particular order, but if you if you were to order it from your #1 pick to #10 pick, what would it be in?

The B5 A4 and S4 were, from a build quality, extremely capable and successful cars for Audi! Remember that these were first offered in 1994 which is 23 years ago! Maybe not the most interesting or fastest or best handling, but from a mass production quality construction point of view they were fantastic! There are still tons of these on the road today with no sign of them rusting away or stopping anytime soon.

I don't know much about the first 3 on the list but maybe the B5 could replace the TT on the list. Cool car but IMO not as big of a step forward as the B5 was for the whole industry.
Just my opinion...

I'd definitely argue that the B5 S4/RS4 deserves a spot on that list. They're probably one of the cleanest looking older generation vehicle on the roads today. Here is a friends old S4, with an RS4 front wide body kit (B5 RS4's were Avants). Unfortunately, these weren't sold in the U.S.
