Default Nice color M-3 and your opinion

Been thinking of getting an M-3 vs the new S-4. I see you have a red M-3. I test drove the new S-4 have not road tested the M-3. I would appreciate your opinion in this matter. I own a S-4 2001 and been driving Audis since Audi Fox.

Default Uh...

It's S4, and M3...

Do you see hyphens anywhere in te badges? No.

Test drive the M3 for yourself... you'll like both. Decide for yourself. The S4 is much better in the snow and rain. You'll also be able to seat 4 very comfortably.

Default m3 actually has more rear legroom than the s4 ...

and has more rear room on the whole than the s4 (sorry folks, but i'm sick of hearing that myth).

anyway, i absolutely love the m3. of course, the m3 is next to useless in serious winter weather, but even when i had an s4 (b5 mind you) i didn't drive it in the winter -- i just can't bring myself to treat something i love so brutally. that's what beaters are for :-)

unfortunately, right now my beater is too clean to beat on ... haha!
