Yup, just got it....Actually like the RS4 better.
The GT-R is out of this world fast, it's like nothing I've ever driven before. (I have had a 600+ hp 996tt for reference, among some of Germany's other elite vehicle. E39 M5, B5 S4, etc...)
It's kinda loud, kinda harsh, but does everything it's supposed to excellently.
The RS4 is just so smooth and capable that it's hard to find a car that will do everything the RS4 can. The RS4 isn't nearly as fast in any situation, but the buttery smooth 4.2l is just pure bliss to drive, where the GT-R is insanity when you choose for it to be.
The GT-R is really a large car too, it's hard to believe side by side how much smaller the RS4 is than the GT-R. You can sense this when you are driving the car too. Which makes what the GT-R does that much more impressive.
I couldn't have ever replaced the RS4 with the GT-R, (I actually don't ever plan on replacing the RS4 at all, it's a keeper for me. It's the best car I've ever owned)
and in my 100% honest opinion they aren't even that great as complementary cars.
The RS4 does everything the GT-R can do, just not an anywhere near the speed. So having both seems a little redundant.
I am a speed freak so for me the GT-R just fulfills my need to have or be the fastest thing on the road 99.9% of the time (although where I live it doesn't really matter)
But in the end if I had to have just one it would be the RS4. You may love the GT-R don't get me wrong, but I think you would look back and appreciate what the RS4 was, and how it accomplished what it did.
