RS4 is ridiculously overpriced. Nice car, but 700 lbs too heavy and $15,000 overpriced. Evo FQ-340 walks all over it track performance wise in the EVO magazine shootout months ago.

The EVO is not as refined, for sure. It's a sharp-edged tool for purists. It is not crap in any way, though.

I wonder why people assume that folks with a lot of money always buy the most expensive cars available, and would never pick something cheaper because it suits their needs.

Maybe because they don't know what it's like to have a lot of money....
The GSR definitely suited my needs! Not that I have a lot of money... but I did just buy a new BMW Z4 M coupe to keep my EVO company...

You guys can twist what I'm saying however you want to defend the Evo, etc, but the fact remains that the Evo and RS4 are NOT in the same class and comparing the two is foolish.

You should be careful about painting with such a broad stroke. Just because you don't agree, doesn't make it foolish.
