I think Top gear has got it all right. The AMG is more powerfull but just look at it, you can tell it was aimed at the USA market, all that bling etc etc, nice soft suspension for all the fat arses that will be in them.
The new M3...It may be faster on a dry track, more fun on a dry track (and every 12 year old boy will want one) but in the real world most people drive on wet and dry roads with dubious road conditions(i do live in Devon).
The RS4 (or almost any Audi quattro) on a wet or icy ,scrbby ,potholed road (with the odd leaf thrown in) will out perform and keep you safe again and again. We dont all go to track days and i am sure alot of you have kids, trying to strap a seat into the back of a coupe.its not fun when the heavens open.
4 doors, quattro and a thumping v8 any day!

I drove the new M3 on greasy roads and it did just fine. In fact it has better front end grip in those conditions then the RS4 I find. Unless you are an idiot City investment banker, who gives a car sudden, full throttle on a wet roundabout with the traction control switched off... You will NEVER miss AWD. In countries with REAL winter, the RS4 is as useless as an Elise. The RS4 is dull and feels like a regular A4 most of the time, while most reviews agree that the C63 is an event ALL the time. I think it trounces both the M and the RS.

Thats the kind of analysis you'd expect from a Russian who has lived in Canada, but presently lives in Switzerland, bought a car on a lease which he'd never test driven, doesn't seem to be able to shift gear correctly to maintain the rpm in the right range and has no idea what class is.

:wink:

Personally I'd take a Smart car over a M3 because you can park it end on to the kurb...yadda dadda da.

There is a guy on the TT forum just like you, he's constantly slagging off the TT (both MkI and MkII), he's treated as the local village idiot on the forum, not taken seriously and almost felt sorry for. Shame really as all he's after is a bit of attention and feels that this is the best way to do it as he is so inadequate, unfortuantly he can't even go back and change now as he would look an even bigger prat than what he is now and so carries on and on and on......Sad, so very very sad, I feel quite sorry for him too.

Why are the Brits flummoxed by a few drops of rain????? Brits should be as handy in the rain as the Finns in the snow and muck. We drove RWD Ladas on bald tires in Russia with no problem. Traction Control was when you got into the car sober. I drove an M3 through a Canadian Winter, with ice, snow, rain etc with NO problems, even in 2 inches of snow. If you can't handle a little rain... TAKE THE BUS!!!!

Russian dude you really are such a knob. Dont you get it that you are a laughing stock?? Nobody cares what you have to say.....your boring. You clearly have no idea what your talking about, and you change your preference from an 'M3' to a 'C63' on an hourly basis.

We all know you hate your RS4.............well understand this:

[/b]WE HATE YOU!!

I am begging the administrators to ban this troll as he is the antichrist.
