Initial response was "wow look a B7 RS4", then immediately afterwards, "oh, it looks like an S-Line, what a shame"

And before anyone says anything, its not sour grapes because I cannot afford one, because I will be able to in a few years on the second hand market, but now I don’t think I will want one.

Yeh but no but - when you really look at it and appreciate its muscular subtleness it actually looks feck all like an S-Line.

Its understatement like Audi do best or else we'd be shopping for Mitsibushi Evo VIII/ IX.

Or maybe a B5!

Parked my B5 RS4 beside and then opposite a B7 RS4 today and had pondered the beautiful sight for a good few minutes, didnt have a camera with unfortunately and dont have one on my fone either.

Somehow the B5 came to lok a bit ordibary and out of proportion after a while - aaaaagh

Is this the equivalent of snow blindness?

btw the word "ordibary" from above should read "ordinary"

Thought I'd clear that up...

I saw an Imola yellow B7 cruising up the Kings Road in London a few days ago. Have to say it really looked like an S-Line. I think audi have done a good thing offering the S-Line spec on lower models but I think they could have maybe tried to set the RS4 apart a little more for those parting with over 50k. Being banana yellow didnt do the car many favours either. Am hoping the Avant will look meaner.

Its what's inside/underneath that counts

My girl friend came home saying she had seen a RS4 B7 Avant down the road. She knows her cars. So I dashed out to have a look and sure enough it was!.......until that is, I got closer and it said S4

Well quite clearly it wouldnt be an new avant due to the fact they aint here yet

Its true

I still say the RS4 rocks... B5 or B7..... does it matter? Enjoy your cars folks.

Listers in Stratford had their RS4 parked next to a new Black S4 Avant and the RS4 did look much better, the arches were more pumped up and the bigger wheels helped. I prefer the subtle look of the RS models and the BMW M's. If you want to look manic buy an EVO IX.

Agree with Capt Splash

Jezzer, I meant there wouldnt be any customers with one as Justin good lady thought.

Has anyone spotted an Avant on test?
