Soon to be an RS4 B6 owner
Well after a year away from expensive running costs of a highly modified Mitsubishi Evo 5, I've decided (over several weeks of research and test driving ) that the RS4 is the future for me. Oh and my bank balance has recovered for the torturous Evo ownership
Living up norf near the Scottish borders it's taken a long time to scour the various online resources and sales/auctions and forums etc to find a potential purchase victim (I'm trying to work out who the victim might be ... me or car)!
I had toyed with the idea of an S5, which is no slouch of a car but it just didn't have that 'total package' or exclusivity of the RS models. So Monday hopefully will be D-day and I'll get the RS I want. Pictures to follow and when/if I buy it.
Cheers, Graham

Re: Soon to be an RS4 B6 owner
The S4 looks tidy, I had considered an S5 but the RS just seems a little more practicable
Re: Soon to be an RS4 B6 owner
Much more tunable having a charger and so addictive hearing it scream

Re: Soon to be an RS4 B6 owner
I’ve had an RS4 B7 and I’ve had an S5. Out of the 2 the RS4 with its V8 wins hands down alllllllll day long. The V6 just sounds pants compared to the V8 beast.

Re: Soon to be an RS4 B6 owner
I know that the early S5’s were a V8 but I was comparing My S5 which was a late 2012 model which was a crappy V6T.DigitalGraham wrote: ↑Mon Jul 09, 2018 8:15 pmThe S5 was a V8 also, I'm not keen on the V6T tbh. I think it's the noise

Re: Soon to be an RS4 B6 owner
Exactly! Each to their own. You can love your “S” all you like, but it’ll always just be an “S” and never be an “RS”

Re: Soon to be an RS4 B6 owner
Now Now, I like both and my decision to go with an RS would be a personal preference and the resale potential value, as I expect the car to be with me for a while.
