Default The guys from the A5/S5 boards seem to have missed the point - have you guys noticed that
the RS4 (euro model) weighs less than the new M3 (euro too). This has never happened before, esp since the RS4 has quattro.

So power to weight, and more importantly, torque to weight is better in the RS4.

Any idea if BMW will also load up the M3 for the US and increase its weight?<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a5/msgs/7297.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/a5/msgs/7297.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default Wow, are you sure about that?
The RS4 Eurospec is 37 and change no? Isn't the new M3 36ish? What am I missing?

As I said, I'm quoting official stats issued by the manufacturers.

Default Paprika, that was funny
Well I find this whole M3 thing quite amusing.

BMW seems to be self destructing. I was sure the M3 would clean up the mess that was the M5.

Default Bullsh!t. Audi wishes the Euro RS4 weighs 1650kg.
Even the low option no sunroof ceramic brake test car by Germany's Sport Auto weighed in at over 1700 kg.

Not to be trusted. RS4's are about 3750-4000+.

Default i didnt realize cars were organic with varying weight
I wonder how much mine weighs?

In all seriousness the m3 seems to add weight to its list of dissapointments.
