    Re: S5 vs E92 M3 video

    Can't say I'm overly surprised by the conclusion. I wouldn't think that the S5 vs the E92 M3 is a very fair comparison. Kind of apples to oranges IMO

      Yes it has been stated the S5 is more aimed at the 335 then M3 but I think the RS5 is going to really give the M3 a run, but looks wise I think the S5 is soooo much nicer!

          Indeed. the RS5 will be a much better comparison for sure.

              The S5 starts at 65k, substantially less than the M3.

                yea m3 will be like 95 like the rs4 probably

                i dunno why audi slated the RS line to aim at the BMW M line.. whereas before the S line aimed at the M line

                like the B5 S4 was aimed at the E30 M3.. 240HP vs 250HP(audi)
                and the B6 S4 was aimed at the E36 M3. 333 vs 340 (audi)
                b7 S4 vs E92 M3 .. 340HP vs 420HP (huh!?)
                rs4 vs e92m3 420 vs 420

                  Because the 335 took over where the M3 used to be, so Audi left its S cars there and then increased the RS. There also never used to be so many RS cars either, so they have to compete with something.

                    just watched that top gear with RS4 vs M3 vs C63AMG last night

                    personally id be goin with the RS4 (practical) or the AMG (fun!) over the M3, but it had the best track time and at the end, they all (kind of) agreed on the M3

                    yeah M3 pricing is kinda stupid. I liked how Jeremy dressed up as the typical M3 driver haha (sunglasses, polo, bluetooth headset lol)

                        I think 1 group of journalists either sandbagged on purpose, or just got a dog car. Its not possible that this is a useful or entertaining video. I didn't even see the S5 break the tires loose. I think they were shifting kind of slow? When an obviously skewed video surfaces and people are "OMG suxors" it's just irritating as a general car enthusiast.
