That is great but the RS 4 is still 20k higher then even the C55. Take the C55 to Kleeman and drop a super charger in for 15k and you will have over 500hp and 5k left over for new tires

I love the RS4 but at 80k there are a few other cars I would go with, 911, S4+motorcycle+boat.

 

Yea, I would say the S4 is in there class not the RS4. It looks sweet but $80,000 for 13.3 second car. I'd rather put $40,000 into a new A4.

 

has anyone heard of teh 99 viper... 500hp for 40k... u cant really lose...lmao

and yeah if u put even like 15k into an s4 b5... boom instant 450hp.

 

definatly out of class range...oh well.

 

When BMW puts a 400hp V8 in the M3, then it'll be a fair comparison.

 

just bought that car and driver, they always do a good job. That rs4 is sooo sick

 

yea i got it a few weeks ago and i was thinkig the same thing. They have doena s4 m3 comparo before why throw in a RS4. I believe they do mention it in the article about the price thou. But is thats not the RS4s class what is. I think this is pretty much the only car like it. I mean teh M5 but that s bigger body style. It should be witha RS6. Maybe the Me competion one.
