The allroad seems like a cool vehicle. edit: 211hp.. nevermind.
Plus the Allroad's are all slushboxes too. The R is actually pretty fun as a daily driver, but I think it would fall apart on the track. There are Haldex controllers that can provide a more rwd bias, but I don't think the drivetrain is really made for that.

The B8 S4 is a great drive, with decent steering, they're just large, and very, very heavy and feel like it.
