I've go to autoshow to see the RS4 yesterday. The Wide body looks really good, but somehow it dissapointing me. For Canadian model, it don't come with RS4 seats, RS4 steering wheels, start bottom. It cost about same price as a 997, C6 Z06 or SRT8 X2 . I've look closely with the side mirror, the finish look like ****, looks like a DIY spary paint project. I will say I'm a Audi fan, but this RS4 don't do for me with that price and performance.

Do you think that Chevy, Porsche or Chrysler have better quality paint jobs and interiors? All of those cars have tons of orange peel from tip to tail. At least Audi color sands the top surfaces of their cars.
Audi's interiors blow everything else that you have mentioned away.
The way that you are describing that car, it doesn't sound like an RS4. Why would Audi ship a car that is only partially converted (for lack of a better word)?
Personally I am impressed with most of the new things that Audi has brought to the table. They are really giving BMW and Daimler a run for their money in the luxury sedan market.

Brad,
Between BMW, MB and Audi. Audi build quality has blow the other away from ext. to int. As I've mention before, I'm an Audi fan. My daily drive is a Audi and this the my 3rd Audi. I'm just trying to say for the price RS4 Target is just too high. People can have so many choose with that amount money.
The side mirror on the show car is just not like normal Audi top product. I love the S4 brush Alum. finish, but this RS4 mirror just like a home make spray paint job ???

the C class was 2001 and b6 was late '06....
I really dont know where the b7 model stands evolution wise...
and yes...it used to be the c32...now the c55
I still say that the c43 (older chassis) was the best c class ever
