Was considering this car as i'm looking to step up in the near future. Went and test drove an S4 in the mean time and I was VERY disapointed. Some of the interior materials are cheaper than my girls V6 accord... and the power and power delivery were mediocre at best. I may stil go drive the RS4 (if the let me, f_ing snobs) but I don't even know if it's worth it.

$66k? Wonderful. At $85k this was a bad idea, but at the price of a well-optioned E46 M3, it will make some waves.

I think I know someone who may be interested... Gary, where are you?

Not bad but still pricey for a small car.

The only man on earth more cynical than I. The same could be said of the Murcielago, Gallardo, EB 16.4 Veyron, etc.

But then again, I'm sure that's how you feel

Thing is the Lambo will always be a Lambo no matter who owns them. Oddly enough an outside company made the car better.

I am a big Audi fan -- loved the old S4 .... but this one .... ehhh. Too little for the market and way too much depleted uranium in that tank.

The US-spec one doesn't have all the nice interior touches that distinguish the RS4 from the regular S4, not a deal breaker, but somewhat silly if you are paying a premium for the "R" in S4.

$66K isn't bad for the new RS4. I was expecting it to be more.

Always been an Audi fan, still think the price is a little steep.
