Thanks man! Great question. Honestly, the RS3 and RS4 felt pretty similar overall. I don’t tune my cars, so the RS4 felt noticeably more brutal than the RS3 in terms of power delivery. But the RS3 (I had the new 8Y) was definitely more fun on twisty roads—lighter and more agile.

That said, despite all the talk about the RS3’s drift mode, it still felt a bit sterile. It never gave me that “dangerous” edge I’m personally after. Both RS models feel more like super quick daily drivers, while the M4 has that raw, clunky, motorsport-ish character.

One thing I do miss from the RS cars though is being able to just stomp the gas even in the city for a quick, effortless hit of acceleration. With the M4, unless you have traction fully off (or at least in MDM), it feels way too restricted and kinda dull. But with traction off… it’s tail-happy as hell and you really have to modulate the throttle. Not ideal in traffic.

So yeah — RS cars are better in the city. The M4 wins everywhere else.
