^ He didn’t. He got rid of the M340i and bought a RS5

But he still hangs around here to tell everyone how inferior the M340i is

Defensive? Not in the slightest. I merely stated my opinion based on ownership of both. The M340i is a great car and you can look at my past posts to prove that.

How can I feel a difference in speed? Yes it launches harder, hooks up quicker/more immediate, and pushes you back in your seat more...and it just feels faster. Not by a ton, as the M340i is a quick car.

Oh and I didn't sell my RS5 for the M340i, it was the other way around.

right...go look at my past posts and you will clearly see how wrong you are. And what have you contributed to this forum? Oh right, nothing. Carry on...

Audis are the least sporty of the Germans. With the exception of the R8, which is a magnificent machine.

Why Audi? I would’ve upgraded to an M3 Competition

It's a very well balanced daily driver that's why. The M3 grill looks like shit, that's why I didn't get one.

The rolling races were a joke (only lost the one rolling race though and Matt jumped on him while joking around with the countdown on the other). I'm sure it didn't help that Yanee is like 200 lbs heavier than Matt. Anyway, not surprising that the drag was 5 tenths the win for the RS5...seems about right. That's a big difference and expected.
