If it shares suspension setup as well as engine with the RS5 then it will be bad news.

Oh dear this aint looking good is it....

I hate the looks already, looks just like the S4, hopefully it will have better trim.

I honestly think the B7 Avant is a nicer shape than the new s4/rs4... but then I would.

20''/21'' alloy option, that will keep the pimps happy then. (depending one what magazine you read it differs, early days I know).

"Other tech available will include Dynamic Ride Control (with all four shock absorbers linked for less body roll)"..Not again please :audibash:

+1

To me the B8 looks over-styled and too "Bangle-like".

Overwheeled in my opinion. Not something I thought I'd say about a production car, but then it isn't a production car yet I suppose.

i think we need to wait to see it with the proper RS bodykit, as the wheels look out of place on the S4 body

ok so maybe im biased, but its starting to look too smooth,

the c6 RS6 doesnt look like it should be in the R fold either, sorry

b7 rs4 looks mean like the evo 6 and impreza then after they go all girly.

The only bit I like is the wheels.... :sekret:

I would be disappointed if it only has the RS5 engine in it. I'm sure the S-tronic box will make it quick but surely Audi is cheapening the RS badge with a half hearted attempt to steal back sales from the M3 / C63 / ISF? Stick the TTV8 in the RS4 and then they'll be getting my money.
