What, no comment on the Lambo or the Bent?
Bentley bleeeah! Rubish englishy tea-iii post-retro looking rubish handling!

Lambo murcielago? Yeah right! where's that zonda?
If i really want 4 wheel fun (wich i don't) i could buy a tweaked evo IX. Now that's a sharp 4wd.

But i became a rwd addict. I prefere to have a rwd car to have so much fun 9 months a year....so i bought the best there is for this kind of money. A bimmer!

And the VW Group own some great marques and make some great cars.

I wouldn't mind having a "VW" Veyron, "VW" Murcielago or "VW" Continental GT

Well said.

I am too well inform that's why I said that, you will find a 1.8T engine in the Jetta/Vento or a Passat and also you will find it in the A4 or A6, so an Audi is just a rebadge VW same goes for Lexus and Toyota.

The time when Audi invented Quarttro, they are making great cars, but that's it, not anymore.

But I will take a VW RS4 if my garage have some space.

Not for me!

I used to be an audi fan. But as soon as i got a taste of pure perfection rwd bmw it was like a bloodlust...feeding fresh meat to the tamed monster. Nothing will make me want an audi now. Not even this rs4. I will say no to the rs4 for many bmws: like z4m, m3 csl or "at least" comp pack,obviusly m5 and m6. It simply doesn't worth the money for the quattro monster. Audi has a desire now to make cars more and more like bmw (the new engines they produce (less forced induction, revvier engines)) but will never make them handle or be as much fund to drive like a pure breed bmw. At least that's my opinion.

I used to be a hardcore VW and Audi fan but I'm a fan of European cars in general (hence the call name). I've had several modified VWs and had always wanted an Audi. I was actually about to buy the new S4 but my wife convinced me to look at the 5. Not that I don't still love the S4 but I'm so glad I got the five. It wasn't really a comparison between the two cars anyway. They are in different classes. If I was to look at an S4 or an M3, I would choose the S4 just because one of my key requirement is a 4 door sports sedan.

Anyway, I think the point I'm trying to make by talking in circles is that I just love European cars and I think each one of them has something special to offer. I've seen shit talk on other forums about the E60 and I just think people are ignorant or just too stuck in their ways so in turn, I try not to be and I respect all that other car manufacturers have to offer.

Like I said before, if I had the money, I'd have all //M cars, all AMG cars, all quattro GMBH cars, Ferrari, Porsche, Lambos....hell even STis, EVOs, Z06, Cadillac V-series...etc.....

Okay, I'll get off my soap box

Look for the good side: they are all germany cars..

Germany makes the best cars of the world.

All is a question of taste, style, use for the cars and time.

I had an A4 and an A6 just after the E36 and I really preffered the Audi. I came back to BMW with the E90, E60 and E83 and no words now they are unattainable.

But nothing is forever and to keep the top is most difficult than to get there. Life is evolution.

Just my opnion.

Well yeah you can say I am stuck to a Bimmer because I have driven alot of cars and none gives me the feel that a BMW gives me. So this is quite personal and I am not trying to change or enlight anyone to love nothing but a BMW. You can have any car you like but I like BMW at the moment.

RS4 would be nice though but it does not mean that if I have the space in the garage there would be one there automatically. A Skyline GT-R perhaps? (R32, R33, R34 because I still don't like the styling of the latest GT-R) :thumbsdown:

Yeah, I think on the new Golf V platform the R32 (or I think it'll be the R35, not sure) will have about 300 horses. Should be pretty quick and maybe better poised to compete with the STi and EVO.
