1992 Audi 100CS: Car and Driver Reopens Its Archive on Ingolstadt's Lean Sedan

Car and Driver has gone back into its own archive to revisit the road test it ran on the 1992 Audi 100CS, the sedan the magazine described at the time as a lean new thoroughbred prancing out of Ingolstadt. For collectors and owners who track the model's place in Audi's American lineup of the early 1990s, the resurfaced test is a chance to read the original judgment on the car as it was written, without the benefit of hindsight. It is Car and Driver's road test and Car and Driver's archive, not ours to retest or re-score, but the 100CS's reputation as a trim, purposeful sedan out of Ingolstadt is worth noting for anyone with one in the garage today.

With reporting from Car and Driver.
