The RS4 is about one million times better. A second hand M3 is a much better option, the straight 6 rasp is to die for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are a mid 14 sec car? sound awesome though.. guy at work has an 03, and it is a beautiful car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 20y 11m 26d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 21/09/08 03:56 AM Author Share Posted 21/09/08 03:56 AM Got the wife motivated today as we did not have kids this weekend. I have been seriously looking at the RS4, but was worried about the seats, as this is a big complaint in the reviews I have read.Went to the local Audi dealership where they did not have any RD4's in stock. Apparenlty they are now discontinued and will not have a new model for a couple of years.I did however get to sit in a new S3 that has the same seats as a RS4. They are a wrap around bucket and are painful to get into and out of. I am a big guy (6'5", 130kg) and the race seats would be annoying to live with on a daily basis. So I went to my client the BMW dealership, and looked at the M3's. I tested a E46 M3 with 12k km and the SMG gearbox. It was a nice car, but it does not offer me enough to change from the F6. So now the budget has extended to $130k drive away, but still no closer to finding the right car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dillz Three pedals are better then two..

And it would keep the minister for finance happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have taken a R34GTR over a M3 anyday as it is a dream car.I am considering looking for a R33 4 door GTR again, as they should be better priced. The only problem is it is a rare car and difficult to find.There is no desperation for me to change cars, more that I want to change. I cannot find any info on this hipo Subaru that aiboart mentioned.A EVO 10 is now starting to look good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evo X would be the go but I dare say they wouldn't be any easier to get in and out of, sometimes two big doors are better then 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it just whatever screams "buy me"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
