    I wanted an RS car for the longest time until I drove them. After having a modern M car the RS cars are meek in comparison. Just sayin.

      Rs cars are a joke aside from the avant. Terrible performers compared to the rest of the class.

      True, I dont track the cars so thats no concern for me. I do agree Bmw makes great engines, and the S58 is superb. But can’t cay the same for the looks, I like style and for the money I want to enjoy looking at my car as much as the drive. The G82 fails in the looks department. Hense Rs5 is my alternative. Till BMW gets they’re shit together

        I daily my G80 on a E50 tune. I love it. After you change the grill it changes it . Honestly I feel any car you buy , it will need some work.

          Agreed. Which grille did you go with? I’m pretty sure I’m getting the MHC+ GT grille today.

            I went with a V style grill . (Vortsteiner grill from Dongsai). I got it finished in satin.

        All depends honestly. I have a G80 in transit and personally love the look, especially modded (lowered, CF goodies, etc). The G82 I agree is not great proportionally, looks very off in stock format. It’s just tough if you’ve driven the M cars to really go with the RS cars performance wise. They feel straight up neutered comparing the drive trains. But if it were between G82 and an RS5 I would pick the Audi I think. There’s trade offs left and right and it really all comes down to preference.
