In my view the direct competitor to the M3 from Audi is the S5 and S4. It always has been. How is this changed?

Regardless of the past, the M3 and RS4 are direct competitors. I know this, because the RS4 is the Audi I was considering before I ordered a BMW. I guess I'm not alone in this - hence the constant comparisons in the motoring press. I don't see the problem here...
