They have to do 330bhp because of the 3,2 V6 with 250bhp!

Conti, but those 330bhp that you mean is for the S3, right ? maybe to combat! the M1 that i already ear that comes with 333cv!!. If so, the RS3 comes with what ? 380 ? 390bhp ? sounds a lot, no ? and for the 3.2L, right ?

Wait for yours opinions, please!.

If you ask me, there won't be an RS3!
There would be no real difference between RS4 and RS3. If the build an RS3 with 390 bhp (lets say with turbos) it would be faster (0-60miles) than an RS4 because of the weight!

Sorry, Riz!

thanks for your opinion.

But in yours opinion what will be faster ? The old!!!! RS4 V6 Biturbo and 380bhp or this new with a V8 (No turbos) with 425bhp and maybe a litllle! more weight ? in terms of driving pleasure what will be best ? in daily use and in track days ?

Thanks in advance for opinions from all of you in a first glance.

Don't know what weight the new one will be, but if you ask me, Iw ould say that both are nearly the same (4,9 sec 0-60 mph).
The new one will have less (in comparison to the bhp) torque(?), because it has no turbos.

I hope that Audi will make a 1500kg car for a good price (regarding the new M5).

Conti, what´s the price of a new M5 there in germany ?

Regards,

Post by **Conti** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 12:28 pm

86,200€, and it has a V10 500bhp.
And nearly full spec

Post by **Filipe** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 3:33 pm

Here is about 125 000€ with the most basic extras that they offer here

Let´s hope that the future RS4 will come more cheaper!!...it´s possible, because here taxes are over the C.C. (liters!), so if the RS4 is a 4.2, is a bit small then the 5 L from the bimmer V10. Or the bmw is 5.5L ?

Thanks!

Post by **Conti** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 3:41 pm

The M5 has a 5.0L engine.
Prices for the new RS4 should be about 73.000€!

Thanks. Meanwhile if you don´t mind, just for me to compare, what´s the price of the RS6 and the actual S4 there ? Thanks a lot,
