Prepare for a monologue!
Just watched the review. I am totally f*#*#ing blown away! Oh my days!
We have become so dependent upon journalists and launch weekends to get first impressions and feel of new cars. But even with their high end cameras, sound equipment and film crews, they simply don't capture what's important. And track testing...don't get me started on track (Autocar) reviews of fast audis.
But it takes someone like Hamza (and Tim) to just bang a camera up, get in and boot it!! This is easily the best quick review of what's important about the new RS4. I take my hat off to Tim and Hamza. I knew as soon as I seen the thumbnail it was going to be good. Tim, you drive like me mate haha. But, beauty of the RS4 is...when you want to chill out, stick it in comfort.
So, starting this thread, it was a comparison about RS cars, their progress, whether the 4 had lost its charm and the separation from S cars. Now, I'm sold. 100%. This new car is plenty loud enough, looks to have the body roll that my S4 has under control and fun. It actually looks fun.
This is my next car. I'm saving hard. It's the only car a petrolhead that needs practicality will ever need. The RS6, is more than you'll ever need. And knowing how I drive and how nimble this new 4 is, it suits me. The 6 is something I reckon you get when you've got the fast driving and great road hunting out your system and you want a car that can drive across countries and still give you that excitement through that V8 and pace. As I said a few weeks ago, I left a 6 behind in my S4 and it was so much fun. He was properly trying to chase me and we both loved it. But you cannot hide 2 tonnes on UK B roads. It really showed. Res delete or twin branch exhaust for this thing and you're gonna have an epic car.
Right. I'm done waffling but had to be said. Can't wait for next review Tim and really can't wait for my test day with the new 4 in May
Enjoy your trip!
