Those wheels really don't do the car justice.

Agreed, don't do it any favours at all.Compared to the other one Graham had on test with rotors it looks pants.

I know the 19"s aren't getting many positive comments on here but I like them and I want to drive one on those to feel the ride difference.
The 20"s look amazing but ride awfully.

I think it's a case that the 19s in the attached pic look nasty rather than 19s in general.drybeer wrote:I know the 19"s aren't getting many positive comments on here but I like them and I want to drive one on those to feel the ride difference.

The rotors look good.

yes tend to agree those 19" look <beep> but you could go for 19" rotors if you find the 20" to harsh

The car we took on the road route at millbrook had those wheels which probably did help the ride
Do like <beep> though.

There's probably a £2k reason why they look so bad 
Saying that EVO's long-termer looks ok in them. Maybe it's an "angle" thing.

Im not feeling the mirrors, makes it look like a C6, what happened to the special mirrors the 4 should have?

Agreed the B8 RS4 just doesn't have those special touches that the B7 did, like the different designed mirrors

They have been lazy but I bet bespoke mirrors would have added to the base cost of the car......and in times of austerity every £ counts!!!RS4some wrote:^

Saw a B7 and a B8 at my dealer today and for me the B8 blew the B7 away. It looks very aggressive, 20's look awesome, arches are cool, Daytona looked stunning, the black grill and trim set it all off very nicely.
He started it up in the showroom and it sounded great. Not quite a C63 but throaty nonetheless. My pics came out blurry, sorry.
Apparently one chap ordered 3, 1 for him, 1 for his son and a spare! His had 20k of options. If only . . .

They are clearly wrong. I love the 4.2 V8 sound but that 6.2 V8 is, in my humble opinion, the best sounding motor out there.

There is a chance that mine will be here this week and on Friday I am seein my friend who has just picked up a new C63. We can then have a sound off!
