Unless that has a porsche engine in the back, I think it is a tediously slow boring defunct old barge.

Not up on the RS4, but been led to believe most of the inherent issues/weaknesses with the RS6 V8 were passed down to its lesser sibling (DRC, brake discs, Vmax greed, etc) so it's far from ideal as a daily/commuter :shock:

C'est suffice? :blackeye

Can't believe I agree with Dom, but.... I do. Looks like a good example though.

Can't be many worse things to have a front impact in either.

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Been there done that, wasnt impressed with the rs4. V fast car but not one I would have again.

But then again, each to their own, lots of people must like them?
