BMW M3 CSL vs Audi RS4 B5 - DRAG RACE, ROLLING RACE & Review

[@TAG247]

Original E46 M3 CSL with 25k miles on it? Money.

[@nikomoin7604]

Alex Not rly. It’s an automatic

[@TAG247]

Niko Moin you clearly know nothing about CSL’s - and if we’re going to go down this route, the SMG is ‘technically’ a manual, considering it stands for ‘Sequential Manual Gearbox’ But hey, what do I know, I’m sure you can buy this ropey auto for £10k 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

[@nikomoin7604]

Alex u clearly know nothing about manuals if u consider a sequential gearbox an manual one. All I said is that it’s not perfect imo cause it’s not a manual. If u prefer an automatic or a sequential gearbox (why ever) that’s fine

[@TAG247]

Niko Moin - okay mate, I cba

[@Corvolet5]

@BEARD GANG!! S7... dude, I was talking about 640i or 3.0 TFSI. You can literally buy two Stingers for the price of an S7, and the interior of a Kia is really good for a brand that isn't "premium". The Koreans are on the way up, with the help of a German designer, 5-7 years of warranty and reliability that's equal to Toyotas and Hondas.

@@sixtimesfive8751 I said at least. I'm not saying old ones arent similarly misjudged. I'm making a point that often the paper rated specs magazines etc quoted were not necessarily what all the cars would put out. Then you factor in conditions and tyres. RWD does struggle more with standing sprints of course but that's not going to give us anything to go on for older BMWs. Mines is RWD. Doesn't tell us anything about what the actual times can be though as I know first hand.

I honestly expected an opposite outcome, I thought the RS4 would beat the M3 from a standstill and lose from a roll, I believe the Audi’s driver messed up the launch

@RealCapo88 The metallic intake sound with the massive carbon airbox is unmatched by any 6 cyl. Best of the best.

[@davissilvestrs1996]

@RealCapo88 M3 just needs custom headers to get rid of the rasp. With that sorted it's easily the best 6 cyl sound.

[@davissilvestrs1996]

@RealCapo88 The intake sound is easily better than the RB, 2JZ or the Jag. GT3 RS I agree.

Timevolent Is back except it isn’t. It’s slower, the gear change is appalling, the electronics etc are basic. Nostalgia is a wonderful thing, but aside from exhaust note the new cars are better machines in every single way. The older car is no doubt more rewarding to drive because of its relative simplicity but it’s not a better car. No older car is better than newer versions, that’s bullshitism and delusion based on ignorance. 99.9% of people claiming the CSL is the best M car ever made haven’t even sat in one, let owned and driven one.

Holy shit, that CSL is a beast. But I'm surprised it beat the RS4 with biturbo and AWD from the start, i thought they have an advantage?

[@stubones]

Gladius the Audi is a manual so it suffered from driver “error”.

[@Vazin]

Like stubones said, the start was really bad for the Audi, and don't forget about the manual. And definitely remember that the BMW weighs 300 kgs less than the Audi, and the power difference is only 20 BHP.

[@tesstickle7267]

With audis you either get the launch right or wrong..its pretty easy to get it wrong lol but if you get it right you are gone ha can't afford the rs4 b5 so il go for the s4 ,especially if it snows;)

[@Corvolet5]

@@Vazin Yeah you're right, the RS models from Audi used to be such beasts even from a rolling start. Sadly the RS4 B7 wasn't that much faster than its predecessor, or even slower due to heavy weight and N/A engine.

[@QuantumS1ngularity]

I've seen this duel live many times before and i have just one question - who the hell was driving the RS4??? Both cars stock and the M3 has no chance whatsoever. 14.4seconds for a quarter mile i mean c'mon... My slightly boosted 2.7 A6 does it 13.8, despite having almost 300kg more and 50HP less. Even on paper the RS4 does this in 13.2secs. And why the hell he left the ESP on ?!? In this generation of RS it cuts the throttle if it senses wheelspin and you can clearly see that in the acceleration. The proper way to launch this is ESP off, build the revs to around 4000 and drop the clutch. I see a lot of noobish mistakes lately on this channel. If you're going to do a test, then do it the proper way with proper drivers or at least with people familiar with the selected car.
