Default Sports Compact Car's sometimes acerbic review of the RS4

Hmmm... Not all bad, but not glowing... Good to see the Hatorade is flowing through the autopress drinking fountains...<ul><li><a href="http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/features/0609sccp_2007_audi_rs4/">http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/features/0609sccp_2007_audi_rs4/</a</li></ul>

Default gosh, far be it from an automotive reviewer to mention a car's flaws.

oh the humanity, a subjective opinion. Isn't that what car reviews are? You take it personally like you designed and engineered the car yourself.

Default Err...

That was partially tongue in cheek, if you read what I wrote I said it wasn't a bad review. My comments about hatorade are more for Car and Driver which undoubtedly gave the RS4 its kiss of death by devoting the first entire page of their review to the mysterious wiggle at over 150mph, but then pretended like it wasn't a big deal..

Nothing to see here, move along now..

In the journalism business its called burrying the lead and C&amp;D did just that.

As for SCC, like I said, it was mostly a good review.

Default I wouldn't wipe my dog's *** with that magazine.

It's on par with Import Tuner, but at least that one has bikini ***** in it.
