B5 RS 4 is more of a manly than a C5 RS 6. It will kick it's slipping gearbox arse. You know a B5 RS 4 with 600nm is faster than a 950nm RS 6 too, Panda.

How is front wheel drive dealing with all that power? Sounds like a nice car, they handle really well these and they are built quite well too.

It actually handles very well. And thats without having an anti roll bar fitted! I do admit it is a boy racer car but i love driving it!! And the noise if the remus aswell!

Had a bmw 118 before but after 3 months got rid of it! Rear wheel drive sucks!

Yeah I know what you mean. Just yesterday I heard my 'ho say "No, I said take me for a walk up the canal, not let's do anal", at least that's what I though she said with her head held under a pillow...

I came from a "Burg" matey, miss it tbh. So much fun, RS4 is defo a grown up car and is just jaw dropping in all aspects.
My "Burg" was running stage 2 285bhp/450nm, lowered, 32mm wider track, anti roll bar, strut brace, Cdti, enlarged top hat, Dyna beams... List goes on. The Remus is still the best sounding exhaust I have ever had!

Problem with the vxr is grip, but for the money they are a good car.
previous- Pug 205 gti, 306 gti, 309 gti Goodwood.
Audi S3, S4 V8 avant.
Porsche Macan Turbo.
Gone but NEVER forgotten - C5 RS6 Misano red avant.

Now - Empty garage

If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there!
