I'll tell ya what, the RS4 certainly comes close to the best daily-drivable ass-kicker in my book. It is an extremely potent package, and I love the new aggressive front end on their cars. I'm anticipating its arrival FAR more than that of the E90 M3.

That Volvo is a POS, never in the same sentance have I ever heard 'sport' and 'Volvo'

Anyway, back to the RS4, I think its an amazing car and looks fantastic. It will be far more exclusive than the M3, and for everyday driving will be better IMO. I do think the M3 will be far more track focused though.

As for reliability I am not sure where all the bad comments come from? There was a major issue with the VAG engines - primarily the BOSCH supplied coil packs, which had major issues with the some models of te A3, A4 and TT.

I had an Audi S3 which was brilliant, but I suffered the coil pack issue apart from that it was fine. There were also a few issues with the old model RS4 and its 'bendy' wheels, but I have never heard any other Audi unreliability issues ???

I saw 4 of these in different colors a few days ago when I took a back road from Tampa to Orlando. Couldn't miss them with that front end.
