Can't argue with that actually. Looking forward to a drive though.

15yrs ago they released a similar sized car with similar power and similar price, the B5 RS 4.
That's progress

Performance yes, looks no.
Even performance is just an expected scrape past the current segment king, the A45. which is also getting more power and performance next year to no doubt jump back ahead of Audi.

What they've done is over-hype and under-deliver in every single way. Hugely disappointing, yet again. Looks like I'm holding on to the RS4 for a while yet.

I wouldn't swap a B7 RS 4 for any current RS Audi! You're going to need something really special.

Wonder when BMW are launching the new 1M.

Pet hate - widening of the front arches only...

For the clubsport styling; yes please!

For the RS3 styling; no thanks.

My thoughts exactly, especially since it'll only take buckets and wheels to take it to £50k.

What a fffffing let down.. Audi are becoming a bit complacent,the last three rs models have looked a bit bland Imo..you maybe could argue the c7 has a rear like a Nigerians arse and sounds the nuts.. But this defo could be an s-line..

Front and rear this time thankfully.

As above, 45k (+ options) is a hell of a lot for a pumped up S3 with an additional 67 bhp

I'll believe the arches when I see em

^ that's not an official phto

That picture makes the rear end look much better with black inserts in the diffuser rather than the alu/chrome, but they still took away the squared arches from the clubsport that really stood out (would work even better on a sportback). Could it really be that they got the styling a lot more 'right' than they're letting on, and just don't know how to take a good photo? Or is that just another photoshopped "how it should have looked"?

Its from Fourtitude the day of the press release. Imagine the black exhaust trim is a carbon pack a la RS6

Ok fair enough. It is oem
