Default Talk me out of the RS4 please.

I do not care that it is slower than Stage III B5s. I also know that fuel mileage is bad, if I cared I would buy a Prius. And yes I know it is expensive... anything else?

Default every time you get in your face hurts...

because of the grin you get when driving this car.

The best all around, enjoyable car I have ever owned.

Default My R32 PUSHED at the track, much more than the B5 S4.

S4 became the track car, so I did not even do coilovers on the R32 - I am sure that would have helped.

480 HP... that has to be fun!

Default you can get much of the same for less

You won't get the looks or exclusivity of the RS4, plus this is only comparing to a stock RS4 - throw some mods at it and you'll have a different story.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4b6/msgs/392688.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4b6/msgs/392688.phtml</a</li></ul>

Big sway bar on the rear and PSS9 coilovers fixed the push...

Default I thought about doing this to my B7 S4...but....

The engines are completely different beasts....Unless you have driven an RS4, you can;t imagine how amazing and smooth that engine is....It is in a completely different league that the B6 B7 4.2 Don;t get me wrong, my B7 was a great car, and I came VERY close to doing all the mods you did....It is a great alternative....

I plan on Stasis and Milltek for the RS4 this summer
