THIS is WHY you should buy RS4 over RS6 

What do you guys think? I don't know if I am ready for 4 wheel drive yet BUT she is incredibly useful to live with... Keep up with all the mayhem on my instagram @queenb x

Just got a dog ( I got outvoted by the family) so the RS3 with the heaviest of hearts, had to go, I was gutted. We decided on a 2020 B9 RS4….and got to say, what an absolutely brilliant car. It’s savagely quick in RS Mode, sooooo practical for kids and dog, decent MPG, and it looks properly aggressive but in a classy way. For a family/dog etc with a petrol head Dad, it really does tick all the boxes. Just love it…

Oooo Jimny! That’s my girl 😂

Just moved from an RS3 to an RS4. WHilst I miss that 5 cylinder engine note the RS4 is a very impressive machine. Stupidly quick, very well equipped, and has brought me my first speeding points, DOH!

Great video, lovely colour, the B6 model sadly never got an RS4 though but that glorious V8 was in the B7!

Great review. Totally agree. I have a 2018 version and love it. It’s an awesome all rounder and still relatively rare, still with a cult following. Mine is Nardo grey. Despite almost every new manufacturer having copied this shade now I still get so many positive comments.

i have an 770bhp RS7 c8, i think if i got an RS4 id always been thinking dam wish i had the RS6. I used to have an M5 f90 Comp, i actually think thats what you should go for faster than any of the audis stock and more involving, 60k gets you a nice one now.. Also remember the RS6/7 have 4 wheel steering to get rid of all the understeer....the RS4 doesn't, and when i drove an RS4 felt flat in performance, didn't wow me at all, better performance in the latest M3. Plus lot more road presence with the RS6.

A previous RS6 performance is the better buy and more bang (and sound) for the bucks, sometimes newer isn't always better

I’ve got the B5 RS4 have done for 15 years !

I seriously considered the RS4 before I settled with the S4 Avant. Great car - but the S4 I could buy outright and for someone who just recently started a business; made a lot more sense financially. Make no mistake - the RS4 is the solid choice and I would get one in a heartbeat money-permitting.

Back in the day, I drove and sold one of the very first B5 RS4’s in Avus Silver with Red Leather as I was an Audi salesman. Dream car is still an RS4, but I do have a 2017 A6 C7 Avant quattro in Misano Red, best I can afford atm. Great cars from an Audi fanboy!

You’ve got a v8 m3 in the stable already, isn’t a rear drive current m3 wagon just a fatter, drifter version of that? I know it drives great and it also has 4wd version coming. But thers4 is a bit different. It’ll be a hoot to drive all year round - it’ll murder wet greasy roads when the m3 is just blinking traction control lights. We’ve had a4 wagons (including s & rs ) and really rated them - you’ve got great cars for being you and silly in, the rs4 is fantastic for when you need to be sensible, get stuff done (and get it done fast without being niticed!).

Just had a 20 plate RS4 for a few days while my RS6 was being good serviced good fun can see why some people would go with practically but its not in the same league as a C7/8 RS6

Nice one Becky, in a B9 S4 myself which I love (and I remember your great review of the avant back in the day, not long after I bought mine). It's more than enough of a daily for me personally but the RS4 to me appeals much more than the RS6 for the very reasons you state. Ultimately I'm wondering if the next car for me will be electric (sacrilege I know). Love the etron GT that I test drove but sadly they're asking crazy money for it and there won't be an avant version (something that perhaps makes the Taycan Cross Turismo appealing, other than the price). Keep up the great work!

It’s not stock, as such, it’s the Vorsprung pack. It’s got every extra available on it

If you are buying new (or very nearly) save yourself a wad by ditching the ICE upgrades. Can't recall EVER having my ICE even switched on, such is the intoxicating sound of the engine, especially in sport mode. Once you've taken the RS pill, there's no going back.

RS4 everyday and twice on a Sunday as smaller for our roads, great traction in all weathers and a much better daily driver. What's not to like.

Love the colour and the way it looks but I’m sorry it still has a laptop stuck on the dash, why didn’t they integrate into the dash 🙈

Hi Becky, just came across your video/channel and am loving the content. Also you are beautiful. I'm a huge fun of Audi and the S4s. I've had 2012 S4 & a 2023 S4 but unfortunately wrote that off in January. I am currently driving a B5 S4 and restoring it. I'm trying to decide on what to get moving forward and the RS6 is on my list but the S4 / RS4 isn't available in Canada from what I've heard. The new S5/RS5 looks nice. Quattro is a must in Ontario with the winters here :)

i think the "fast but practical" market is sadly being slowly taken over by SUVs, but Audi sure knows how to make great highway cruisers and this one seems awesome!

I love the RS4. I just wish it was offered here in the States. The only one that’s offered is the RS6. A little too big for me. Great video… loved the sound of this wagon.

I currently drive an A4 tdi quattro remapped to 240 bhp. I absolutely love it but arthritis makes using the clutch difficult. So I am considering a S4, more than enough power for me. If I had an Rs4 I'd loose my license in a heartbeat.

i imagine bronze alloys would look really nice on that green

I wouldn’t be surprised to see the m3 touring be easily £100k, at which point the rs4 does look good value. It’s very quick, does everything but I guess if your hearts not in it…

The colour sells it for me, yes please

Hi Becky, Fantastic predicaments you have! Have seen a RU-vid this week of the new 4wd m3. Looks very quick, 0-60 in 3.1sec. Touring coming first time for M3 next year… Yeah the looks might put some off but I’m over that personally, have seen a few in black now that really suit it. Hang on to your money for a while? Great channel, love my e92 which is much like your own. ENJOY!

Great Review Becky. The RS4 is even better value when you look at , say, the 2018 model year. Just bought a Carbon edition as my only car having always had a project/show car previously but not now. Fantastic car and agree with nearly everything you said.

From the videos I’ve seen on the RS6 and RSQ8 they have a mild hybrid system to help with fuel economy below 30mph ish and deactivate a bank of half the cylinders. Also, what is the fuel economy on a motorway at the optimum fuel saving speed or UK National Speed Limit 70mph. You may take the car to Europe regularly and unrestricted Autobahn. The V8 twin turbo RS6 is well within its maximum capacity whereas the RS4 is more towards its maximum. There’s also resale: Ask Tony Gravelwood Carsales or Sam who you were with on a trip to Monaco in one of your first 2016 videos I’ve seen since subscribing yesterday. I’m sure the premium model RS6 particularly if it’s the top Vorsprung trim Level will be worth more. I would get the V8 RS6 - performance and carrying capacity to spare.

“That road looks familiar… B4453!” Lovely car and stretch of the road.

I want to see the Yaris gr 4 on the channel and to see you and James ripping them about.

Unfortunately no rs4 avant in US. Although, I personally feel very cramped in the a4 & a5. dynamics in the rs4 are probably better than the rs6 just because the rs6 feels like a speed boat. If you only have money for something like this to be your one car garage then buy an a4 and a used sports car lol.

insane! pick up its extreme beast , driving a SQ7 sounds amazing, but this is still good for the price, lovely alloys and torque is crazy....not too keen on the colour, red or grey any day....but for a avant looks nice! RS6 just looks mean, wide angles and mad price 🙂

Amazing motor!! I have an old S4 and I love it. Really not sure about the colour TBH but that's a personal choice. I'd upgrade to this in a heartbeat 💓

Great review Becky, it just packs up it's s**t and it's gone. You have answered your own question I think about getting one as a daily 😃

Nice car i like it ..and the color

The stuck on the dash tablet though.................................................... PUKE.

Nice ride. Unfortunately the new RS4 Avant is not available in North America. :( We're stuck with ponying up for the big brother RS6 and more speeding tickets if we want the estate car...unless I can figure out a way to drop my S5 V8 into my Q5, but that's a reckless thought for another day...

Imo it looks better than the current gen RS6. Much more understated.

Audi is popular for its looks and big hp cars,but also for its oil dripping engines.i hope you didnt have similar problems, as many people i know who own bmw,vw,audi and skodas, have All witnessed some kind of mechanical engine error.German reliability i guess..also,the soft limiter in these cars ALWAYS kill the fun of it....typical German cars.try a Stelvio QV instead,and let me know if you understood why i was right :D heheh

GREAT CAR ! perso i love this car! really good video becky and the differents angles is perfect

M340i touring is another fast, practical wagon imo

Love it that green 👍 have a few carbon bits on the outside aftermarket wheels and it's a beast without the points and a fine 🤣

Becky yeah get one of those rs4's it suits you and it's got every thing you need and are looking for Treat yourself. Go for it. From Dan. M👍👍👍👍

What did You end up getting ? Great video ! I love my summer weekend b7 rs4 what a machine 👏 Hope U got the rs4 :-)

I think some of the cars have got too fast in that your doing absolute warp factor to come anywhere near the edges of their limits, whereas something with a bit less power you can thrash on the limits without the actual jail paced mph. People forget some of the most involving fun cars aren't necessarily the fastest cars in the world. 200mph up a motorway doesn't have the same buzz as tearing up a b road in something agile involving and fun where your on its limits & beyond. Always thought the rs4 was a much nicer looking car than the 6 ( just worked out the English petrol shortage situation, Becky's dailying an e92 M3🤣🤣)

Best all rounder by far

Isn't the RS4 a lot lighter than the RS6? Does it handle better?

Hate the colour but rest of the car is awesome

09.28 the look of “holy fuck this moves” 🤣🤣

I totally agree on rs4 over rs6 ....... Lots better, my choice would be the abt version ...dx

how do i word this one? lol....... right, the latest bmw's probably wait for a revised grill to come out as per suburu did back in 2001 ish when they released the bug eye ( :( ) ....... the rs4 and rs6 are totally different cars to be fair - ones a v6 and ones a v8, size matters for a family holiday to the south of france for example, ive now got an a4 but had an a6, big holiday difference - if moneys no object, id go for an rs6 all day long, you can lose your licence in any car - the a6 just feels like youre not moving, its great!! most modern cars will get you banned in a breath if youre feeling that way out. as for drifting, save it for something else :)

Becky, have you tried a BMW 340i M Touring or a Macan GTS?

a saab 93 1.9 ttid stage 1+ ther have 500 nm and can drive witch no isues but audi rs6 good now but engine is not to reprir or swap the engine pit a Z19DTR

Great car. Pity about the colour. It looks like an army green. Lol. Would look great in grey though.

What is this B6 RS4 you keep talking about? There was no B6 RS4

Oddly enough I'm liking the colour

Green mean sleeper machine!

Unpopular opinion here but I really can't see the point certainly in the UK of having so much power in a road car. 450bhp is way more than you'd ever need, so kinda does make the RS6 just daft. No doubt a really good car but the modern obsession with power escapes me... maybe I'm getting old lol.

You can also get a Audi S8 it is just as good as a Audi RS6 but the S8 way more luxurious. But both expensive😅

Never thought I would say this but why not an electric car? You already have a M3 and a Porsch e

Green, not for me!!

Absolutely the 'better' choice than the RS6, just not in that hideous colour.

Get a Vauxhall vxr8 or a maloo, with that you can put a motorcycle in the back.

I've always loved a fast estate

B6 RS4??? Never heard of that one. Hmmmmm

A BMW M3 is a sedan not a sports car, a Porsche 911 is a sports car or could even be considered as a GT car

Maybe try Alpina B3 Touring?

M340i Touring - Job Done

you are not a hypermiler, but some practicallity for a car is always a good thing...

Niiiice. But not in green... :P

BMW Alpina B3s very limited very fast and excellent on uk roads.

Oh Jimny! 🥰

Sorry! But the Audi look is ugly, for very fake plastic air intakes. Since then, neither the RS4 nor the RS6 is any higher. In Sweden, when Swedish car magazines test the Audi RS4 or RS6 against opposing models from BMW and Merdedes, Audi always ends up last when you combine the points. And in my opinion, Audi's models looked ugliest.

Try an M340D touring as a daily

Lost me at “a favourite was the B6 RS4” strange as they didn’t exist…

didnt get a B6 RS4

4wd as a daily all day long, not the colour for me though

Alpina B3 touring--case closed:)

You talk a lot about fuel economy. Maybe you should get an S3 diesel?

Where you been? Missed ya. Great video Audi RS4 sick man! Green is unlucky on cars however. 👍🏼👌🏼 I personally believe you should get an xdrive m3 wagon. At least you get best of both then. Fully disconnect-able front axle 😉.

Would you ever ride a motorcycle?

okay but i want the rs6

Glad to see you have toned down the thumbnails. That was beneath you becky.

The rs4 is a nice car, but the rs6 is a pure beauty

@7:13 how does et go….. 🤣

Ostensibly, she's the new Apparently Kid 😅

I like it :)

Hi Becky, Need a wagon? and you like M3? Just wait for M3 wagon xDrive then;) I love my M3

I'm not loving the colour, or wheels if I'm honest.

Guilia QV 👍

If I still lived back home and could afford it I wouldn't even contemplate having a rear wheel drive car being my daily given the climate. It would definitely be something like this and this is exactly what I would be looking at getting if they sold it in this country (US).

Two hands on the steering wheel please

Video on how you shouldn’t by either😂

M3 over RS4

Foul colour but a good motor.

I brought a demo B9.5 from Audi for under £60k, had m4’s previously but need £80k for the new shape and I wouldn’t pay that, great car if you need to do some miles, traction can be fun!

I bought a brand new one of these end of last year….had over 100 cars in my time, including M3’s RS6’s and the RS4 is without doubt the best day to day car I’ve ever had. Do it Becky!!

I've the RS4 B9 in nardo grey, epic machine that does everything. Kids in the back, bikes on the roof, dog in the back and rapid. LOVE IT.

The B6 RS4 gets mentioned twice and yet it never existed

The ZF in the M3 is tiptronic no…? They use the same boxes? Same in the S4
