If you had to choose.........M3 or RS4???

I don't suppose saying "neither" is an option?

If I had to pick it would be a struggle, they both have good points and probably one or two bad. I have not driven or been in as a passenger either so am probably not at liberty to comment.

I think they both look fantastic, but there are an awful lot of BMW coupe's on the road. Same for Audi A4's

Tis a good point, how much is an RS4 or a BMW M3 new? There are plenty of other good motors out there second hand for what about £49?

Second hand RS4 or M3 is a different thing. Still can't choose one over the other though, they both look good cars.

Would still be Italian I am afraid..

I know what you mean, I have seen the pictures in the magazines of the new RS6

**Crasher** · 10-09-2007,08:19 PM

The last RS6 was a serious weapon, a sledge hammer, and I agree, if I had the choose between a new current RS4 and the old RS6, I would take an RS6 Plus Avant any day.

I agree but it would have to have a manual box conversion

**Crasher** · 10-09-2007,10:27 PM

Tough one to do, it would be difficult as no manual version was built although it could be possible to use the 01E box from the 97 but it is from a car with 126PS less. The 01L auto box is still great and in the real world, in gear acceleration is more pertinent and an auto will always have the edge over a manual in that situation. Driving a remapped RS6 hard gives such rapid acceleration that you hardly have time to think about shifting manually.
