Re: Comparison
Well I am test driving the New RS4 on saturday, will give you a update.
Re: Comparison
You sure about that? Minichamps used to produce those specific models ( they're all sold out now) and there are only 4 RS4 Audis in 1/18, and they just happen to be the same as that 4! Red Avant, Silver Avant, Sprint Saloon and Black saloon........spikeyboy101 wrote:B7 > B8
Think someone has been playing with photoshop for those toy pics as they are real cars just photoshoped onto a carpet.
Back on topic; B7's better looking anyday though I'm sure that given time I will probably come round to the new cars looks. However, even if I did like the looks I still wouldn't buy one.

Porsche 997.1 GT3RS. Pure Orange, ceramics, etc, Sharkwerks exhaust

Re: Comparison
Plus1...like I said somewhere else,not a lover of the estate...but prefer the looks of the b7 to the b8....saying that the pics I have seen of the prism is stunning, would love to see that colour in the flesh..some colours suit cars and this could well be the must have colour in the b8,rather than sepang and ibis which the majority will be....D_K wrote:B8 prism silver V spokes

Well i punched the Black RS4's number plate into mycar check and it came up with a Black RS4 Saloon - so unless they used a real number plate for the models then i woul dguess their photo shopped.

Re: Comparison
Driven both and love my B7, feels lighter and quicker but have a sneaky feeling the B8 is the future with the paddle shift and dynamic ride settings and we cant wait to mod/own one..

Re: Comparison
Saw the B8 in the flesh today and was a little underwhelmed to be honest. Not the same "woah I NEED one of those" moments as when I first saw a B7. The interior was (as you would expect) a decent jump forward and after thinking there was nothing wrong with the plastic bottom of the B7 steering wheel, I now do compared to the all leather FBSW on the B8.
Plus for me it's a negative there is no saloon!

Re: Comparison
It looks like Audi kept all the good exterior features for the RS6 this time around. The B8 RS4 is fugly in compassion.
