#16 of 275 Fast without having to redline it by audibmw May 19, 2004 (8:28 pm)
The Audi s4 is so fast in comparison to the M3 when you don't nail the accelerator to the floor. The M3 is cranky and feels lazy and heavier unless you rev it, then it comes alive. The S4 is quieter and has a much better sounding engine. The M3 says "look at me." The S4 says "got you." Not many people have an S4. Many people have M3's, including me. The S4 is an undercover rocket. The M3 is an arrogant rocket. The s4 is more fun to drive. I should know I have driven them both. I own a 1988 M3, which is a lot more fun than the new M3.

#17 of 275 M3 reliability/durability and snow use by emdoc May 20, 2004 (8:54 am)
I just sold my Audi A6 2.7T and am considering a M3 as a replacement. We receive some snow each year and will have to put snow tires/wheels on the M3. How reliable is the M3? Will it hold up in the long run? Appreciate your comments. Replies to this message: audibmw (May 20, 2004 7:44 pm) dougt4 (Jun 08, 2004 4:54 pm)

Replying to: emdoc (May 20, 2004 8:54 am) Very reliable, once you get its quirks out of the way. It's built tough. Its structural integrity maintains. Snow is not a good place for it, though.
#22 of 275 m3 vs s4 by bmwlover Jun 03, 2004 (2:09 pm)
I personally think the M3 looks better, and the s4 doesnt look as great. But i've test driven both and the s4 drives like a son of a gun. M3 has the looks and accelaration, but the s4's performance is much better. I know most people have an m3, because its a great car, but not many people have tested an s4 and you should get out there today and test drive it! You will fall in love with it instantly. But if you have an M3 you have made a great choice too.

#24 of 275 dougt4 - sure if.... by kevin111 Jun 08, 2004 (12:11 pm)
Sounds like you are unsatisfied with your current car.   If you have researched all vehicles in your specifications/price range/reliability index and feel the S4 is the car that fits what you want/need in a car, then go ahead.

Replying to: dougt4 (Jun 07, 2004 4:45 pm) the truth is my dream car is a c4, and i could buy one if (my wife didn't think they were too much of a statement)...anyway i am a car nut and want to do the right thing. i am 34 and a mercedes is not my style, a porsche is too over the top, and i don't want my kids expecting "the good life".
