RS4 is on the way

[gmk666]

Newbie saying hello. After a few months sniffing around and the occasional rivetting question about wing mirrors or fuel consumption, I've taken the plunge. Yesterday, I agreed a deal on a black RS4 Avant which will hopefully be ready to collect on Wednesday. My parents have stopped talking to me, having found out that the grown-up, sensible estate car they thought I was looking for is in fact just as fast (read faster) and noisy (read noisier) as the 911 it's replacing. The reason for the swap is my wife is expecting our first child, and if all the supposed sacrifices I have to make are as a tough as this one, I reckon I'm going to enjoy this parenting lark.

Sounds like it happens a lot - the cross-fertilized spirit of the RS2 lives on I suppose. I recognise a few names on here from the Porsche forum (kayc and por911t, for example) but how many others have swapped 911s for RS4s?
