WOW
duh i was making refrence to cost of the vehicle and performance read the post! i never stated that there in the same CLASS I WAS REFERING TO COST and 60k would not be worth it to mua.
then again i would take it audi over the cts-v also

 

If you guys just knew how horrible Audi's reliability issues are than you will turn away in a heartbeat. I have experienced it first hand and will never buy another Audi no matter how much HP this thing is putting out.

 

i simpily agree w/ you. i work right next to an auto gallery and have talked with numerous techs there who have advised me of the relability issues that have taken place from tt's to s4's.
but they do recommend the ferraris or porches they sell

 

lol I would recommend a porsche or a Ferrari to anyone if they had the funds.

Have you seen the work involved just to change the timing belt on a A4? The WHOLE front end has to come off.

 

 

I do too. I used to be on that side of the road; I guess technically still am since I have a Jetta as a grocery getter; but point is VW/Audi are well known for relability issues day after day.

Hey, I'm not doggin' on the cars themselves but compared to Japanese counterparts; Nippon owns it.

BTW; Friend and I were wondering this; who is the better performer? -> M3 CSL or this RS4?

Also which one would you rather roll?

Me; CSL all day; more pure in my book; just like S2K over Z, over RX8 and whatever other cars there are in this class.

Only thing that I would have to say is more pure is the Elise; but that is 2X as expensive.

 

Yeaup... You can go on M3 forum and find MANY ex. S4 owners there. Just like people who buy RX7.. they end up Supra owners. People who buy S4, end up buy M3.

 

Damn ? Its weird cause I heard that VW/Audi dont have that many electronical problem compair to BMW/Mercedes. It just alot of engine component problems. I work for a mercedes dealership and i notice alot of harness, sensior, window regulator, even freaking CUP HOLDERS! But alsong you have warranty and purchase extended warranty your good to go

 

m3 vs this one is a toughy but i think i might give the rs4 a shot jus to see whats its capable of. ive never driven an m3 csl though and i definitely would like to drive both cars then decide if i were in the market for one.
btw. whats up with the new m3 thats what id like to see

 

Very, very nice. I like it a lot. Would I pay $80K for it... aaaaahhhhh, No.

And, yes, the Z06 is a completely different type of machine. Reported base is $65K, BTW.
