Default Do You Like RS4 Replicas?? (WHEELS!!)

Very simple poll. Been reading a lot of RS4 Rep hating on another forum that I'm on - just interested in everyone's opinions. One of the biggest RS4 Rep haters I know drives a B6 S4, so I figured AF was still a pretty fair place to post.

Please leave your reasoning, if you feel so inclined.

I love them. They look good on a dropped b5 and even better on a b6. I really like the R8 reps too, those are hot. I think most people hate on them because they're sort of common now, especially on audizine.

it still an audi to begine with and the styling is what i like, even if you dont got the 420hp motor or if your talking about the B5 the 2.7t cosworth motor, ive even seen some nice B6 RS4 body, good imagination on those companies since theres no B6 RS4

The poll is questioning whether you like the wheels, not the body. Maybe I should've specified a little further.

That must be it, because they don't seem overly common on here. And the guy I'm speaking of with the S4 is an AZ regular...

It's kinda wrong to take an S4 and then call it an RS4 just because you did some bodywork and tuning. It would be better to call it a custom tuned S4, rather than try to take credit for a professionally built car. B5 speaking, Cosworth Tuning made some of the most kickass engines of the day, and just because you can get 420hp out of your 2.7biturbo, it doesn't mean it was tuned and engineered to the same degree. There's a special place for the real RS4, and people want to pay homage to it, but plastering badges on another car isn't the way to do it. How would the S4 guys like it if the 1.8T A4 guys started putting S4 badges on their cars just because they could throw down the same numbers? They'd get their panties in a bunch, too.
