    Calm down m8.

    0-60 is one thing, after that.. it will be a case of bye bye. It's as easy as that..

    A few mags have gotten the M5 from 0-60 in 4.1 too M8 Id love to see a rs4 beat an M5 in the 1/4 mile but on this plannit it WON'T happen

    the old M3 csl beats the rs4 in many track tests,what makes you think the new M3 wont beat the old one?

    oh and btw the old e46 M3 was faster than the e39 in almost everytest it went up against

    If by any chance these rumors are true with the M3 getting 448ps there wont be a car from Audi that can touch this car on a track other than a P car.

    The only thing your rs4/rs5 will have ove the M3 is being able to drive in the snow(something I wouldnt do with either cars but to each his own

    Alas this is the trap that every comparison between the Audi brand and BWM brand fall in to, which is the quickest in a straight line and who's the quickest on a track. I agree on both counts the M3 will be the quicker car as it's design is several years newer than the RS4 but here's the problem, last time I looked I drove my car 99% of the time on the road.


    Now as yet toll road aren't in the UK though I know other countries do have them, so the place over here that a new M3 will beat a RS4 over here is on a toll road, sorry wrong choice of words race track and the last time I when to work these type of toll roads aren't open. So in other works the RS4 will remain the king of the road or should I call it the King's highway.
    Search and you will find the truth.

    We'll find out just how wrong people are about the performance of the M3 in due time. RWD vs. 4WD? You mean twice the drive train loss means nothing? I feel you on unfair comparisons, however the current RS4 is the only competitor to the M3 coupe. The M5 was beat around the track while the RS4 had race tires. I'm not doubting the handling capabilities, nor am I doubting the RS4 can beat the M5 around the track, straight line is out of the question though. I'm speaking of straight line racing and brute force power. The M3 will beat the RS4, to think otherwise is delusional. With all that said, I would still take an RS4 over an M3.
