[BRZPDX]

So I'd like to report on the differences between the BRZ and the RS4. This may help those that are considering ditching their cars since you want the next cool shiny thing, or got "bored" with the car.

From the outside prospective now, you guys look like a bunch of guys with that hot crazy girl friend that you got bored fucking. Now you want "stability" and done with crazy girls, a girl you can take home to your parents. You expect her to be still fun, crazy in bed, sacrificing a little bit of looks, but still want the whole package without the unreliable craziness.

I'm sorry to say but you will need to keep your crazy hot girlfriend BRZ on the side, and get a stable calm "keeper" DD. You won't get both in one package, ever.

I wanted to accomplish the "everything car", and I would assume that the B7 RS4 may be one of the most exciting sedan to drive (M3, M4, C63 AMG etc), raw and the "precise" steering. Yea right, it is nothing like driving the twins.

420hp V8, and it doesn't feel fast because its so damn stable. It understeers like a goddamn asshole, feed back is numb, and feels very very heavy. Straight line acceleration is smooth but doesn't have the old turbo lag kick like my BRZ does. Seating position, although Recaro seats, is still high. The connected feeling is not there like the BRZ, and the steering response is much slower. I'm looking at a tuning solution already, which is sad. First world problems. Oh and I'm listening to FM radio since the head unit is a dino. Working on this car is a BITCH, and the ECU/electronics freak out if you change anything. Price for aftermarket parts for these cars? hahaha

Now for the good parts: I was able to take my clients out without switching to my company car, which was less of a hassle. Exhaust note is intoxicating, and interior is much nicer with full carbon fiber/leather. The big ass trunk, the utility over all is awesome, and not worrying about scraping every where is awesome too. N/A throttle response is also good, I got so used to turbo lag that it jolted me when on/off throttle. I love how the car looks, mix between sleeper and aggressiveness, which to the right people they know exactly what it is, and the people that don't, its just another Audi.

So in the end, a dedicated sports car + DD is the ONLY way to go, without wanting more and making your DD something its not. Unfortunately I didn't have the luxury to do so, and I tried to get something that can do everything. So I am a bit confused with the "everything car" popularity, which these cars do NONE of it excellently (Harsher ride, gas guzzling, high maintenance, etc).

Don't get me wrong, I love the RS4 so far, but I am not fooling my self that this is a better sports car than my BRZ. In every aspect.

TLDR; Sports Sedans does everything poorly, will never replace true sports car, you need 2 cars to fully enjoy both sides of the world. But RS4 still kicks ass.
