That is for base model. Try to spec up that RS4 and see where you will end. And Porsche holds its value much better!

[@schmiggy]

Not sure which models you're looking at (i.e. baseline or with extras) and what currency, but in Aus the base 911 GTS starts at $310,000, and the base RS4 starts at $154k. The Porsche is literally double the price, and barely even beat the Audi. Unless money is no object, and your primary goal is aesthetics/status, then you'd have to be insane to go for the Porsche.

I remember when Porsche was trying to buy VW and then suddenly it was turned around. It was the chairman of Porsche and his money guy who had initiated that potential buyout. There were other aspects to this deal but it wasn't as simple as VW coming to the rescue of Porsche. At least Porsche was able to continue on with maintaining its reputation as a leader of sports car manufacturing.

You know, that the Porsche PDK is a dual clutch gearbox, which is by definition not a Automatic gearbox. It's a Semi-Automatic gearbox. The Audi RS4 has an 8 speed Automatic gearbox. Also the Audi has NO launch control. The only thing you can do to start quicker is to hold the brake and then put your foot on the throttle to pump oil through the torque converter. This generates pressure and as soon as you release the brake, you get off instantly. In the Porsche with the dual clutch gearbox, there is a launch control. In this program the ECU of the gearbox closes the clutch of the first gear as quick as possible. But this always takes some time (suchas in a car with a manual gearbox) to to engage the clutch. That's the reason, why the heavier RS4 is faster at the start. At high speeds the Porsche comes back, because of its lighter weight, better aerodynamic shape and the faster shifting dual clutch gearbox.

[@LastOfGamers]

Did he just say that it's annoying that when you brake hard the hazards come on?..... Ye why would you wanna alert someone behind you in case you have to brake hard while cruising at speeds? Much better if they plough into the back of you because they don't notice you're braking really hard. You're even driven on the autobahn where this kind of system is very useful, maybe it's not needed for the terrible British roads but for long stretches of higher speed cruising on a good highway system I can tell you as I've been that car behind a few times it's extremely useful.

[@marekpelikan9873]

Sports Cars like a Porsche 911 still looking far better than sedan or estate cars. In terms of speed or acceleration on straight roads like Autobahn, there is either no or only marginal difference. For taking out your family on weekend -inclusive luggage-you will get an all in one package. However Audi RS-Drivers are mostly the real bullies on Autobahn. As soon as they see a Porsche driver in front of them, they want to prove something to them and harass the Porsche. That’s behaviour that underdogs use to show.
