Default That dude in San Diego is clearly high on something. His comments about

the cheap interior of the RS4 is ridiculous. I don't remember ever hearing people say crap about Audi interiors being bad.

Default I've got a lot of respect for the thread starter. I'm pretty sure the other "RS4 is crap" BS is

typical "My BMW is the best car evAr" attitude.

Default Agreed......

Audi is renowned for having the finest interiors in the industry. If anything, I've heard the interior of BMW isn't quite up to snuff. As far as interior layout, I find the BMW 5 series to seem a little poorly thoughout in terms of how everything flows.

Default yes it's funny... many M5 owners are paying the dealer big bucks to add carbon fiber trim...

wonder where they got that idea?

Default why do people compare between RS4 and M5 all the time???

The horsepower of M5 is no match against RS4... it's a big gap.. Why not compare M5 and Lamborghini Gallardo then? Both have 10 cylinders and more or less same power...

Default They are both exclusive premium German performance sedans, that's why.....

Although I agree they are really not in the same class, either size, power or pricewise. Car &amp; Driver's test of the S6, M5, and E63 was a better comparison of cars in the same overall category.
