Default RS4 gets a page in Evo magazine...

After 5544 miles of driving, on page 141 of 093 issue of the mag.

Again, like the other critics, the RS4 gets a rather glowing review.

Default But in the end he preferred the M3 CSL..

Kind of a dissapointment, but it comes down to preferences.. Afterall, this qoute says exactly how I feel and what I want in my car:

"So it kills the M3 CS, then? Well, not quite. At eight-tenths the RS4 feels exceptional, and even when pushed to its very limits it retains much of its composure. However, it's still true to the Audi philosophy, which means it will always look after you first and foremost, even when you just want a bit of entertainment."

Don't confuse the M3 CS and CSL. They tested the CS.

Default Actually this exact discussion came up a while back. CSL is a track dedicated

car and will wipe up the road with the RS4. It's also a car that is not to be had here in the U.S. unfortunately.

Default Either way they still preferred the M3 at the end of the day..

I guess that is not surprising, for the reason I quoted in the previous post of mine.
