well if you want to compare race compound tire times then we'll have to get an m3 to complete the 'ring with them too right?

Both cars are unquestionably fast.

that's why i pointed out that i like the sport auto 'ring laptimes. they take those variables out of the equation.

How about a comparison between those two?
Valid or not?
Discuss!

i'd say it's not valid because it's not a stock car at that point. i mean, i could throw a turbo on my e36 M3 and run laps around ferraris for much less than what the ferrari cost...but i would definitely take the ferrari over my car. same thing with a fully built civic running laps around my car, i'll gladly take my car over the civic - this actually happened to me once.

It transmits only the largest of messages, and effort is too light and doesn't build naturally. The ratio is wonderfully quick but, to add insult to injury, the M3's turning radius feels vastly larger than any other 3-series.

I NEVER found such a review about the RS4, although it's out for more than 2 years now. Looks like the new M3 lost it ... completely. The New King: Audi RS4. Actually not new, 2 years old, sorry.  |
lol. you just won't give up. that's the only thing you can hold on to now isn't it? i almost feel bad for you.
