The tC RS5 is probably the most unattractive of the lot, but has the most potential.

the only good thing about the 50 is the interior.

The only one that had any 'wow factor' was the RS1.0. The 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 are all knock off colors of the successful tC colors, SW, FM, and BSP.

Heck yea they do! But the 5.0s are still really nice. I think they went more towards the 'tuner' route with the TRD springs, rims, etc.

i wish those wheels had some sort of lip or offset. I'm not a big fan of flush wheels. I do however like the black and red color combo.

The wheels can be purchased through the dealership, but they will not have the red trim. PM me for details.

i went and saw one at a local dealer over the weekend, it did get better in person but the thing i really didn't like was the trd release badge it just looked cheap and out of place. other than that i liked the matte wheels and the spring/sway package

i like the wheels on the 5's for sure. still should've had a lip kit with it.

rs4 still the ugliest of the rs series IMO
