Well, the B5 RS4 was already pretty well established as one of the best familysport cars ever, so expectations were pretty high for the B7 after a generation with no RS model. IMO they hit the target very well, not subzero material, but something VERY desirable, stealthy when you need it, blistering fast when you are in the mood :good:

Certainly worth a cool rating.

Good to see the rear biased torque split and the normally aspirated engine. Would be one of the top point to point cars in inclement weather

Subzero because I rate the M3 as Subzero, and this is as good if not better than the M3. Can't wait until the competition heats up when the next generation M3 debuts.

First Audi that is actually very desirable to me. For the longest time, I though the Shield Grill does not work on a small car, but works well on bigger cars A8/S8, but in this application for some reason it is PERFECT.

Very aggressive styling, at the same time from far away very stealthy. Definitely a big :good: .

Definitely not sub-zero...I think a car needs to be really really special to have the sub-zero rating. It's cool though, that's for sure, great engine, good looks, but just cool.

'cool'

because of its not a car that a 'conasour', nor a superstar... nor is it elegant perfection like a CGT

but for a 4 door saloon, that rockets and kills little squirells just by looking at them... its amazing, and cool
