And so it came to pass, in the year of Our Lady Gaga 03 (commonly known as 2010), a plague settled upon the House of Sheen. The Patriarch (commonly known as Charlie) was beset by lawsuits and community theatre, and at some point, his automobiles launched a revolt. In layman's terms: a Mercedes S-Class has broken free of Charlie Sheen's garage in the middle of the night. And before you go jumping to conclusions, NO, it is not at all suspicious that the exact same thing happened to another S-Class sedan five months ago. Or that both times, Sheen left the keys in the ignition. Or that both cars...

The 2010 Audi S4 gets about 30 percent better fuel economy than the 2008 S4. What? You don’t think first about fuel economy when shopping for a 333hp super sports sedan? How about price? In that department, too, the new S4 triumphs over old, retailing for $45,900 (manual gearbox) vs. $48,610; $47,300, vs. $49,710 for the S-tronic vs. Tiptronic cars.
