Tough choice; neither is "better", just different.
After many years with my 2011 RS 3.8, I am really excited to have just purchased my RS 4.0. To so many, it would seem nuts to have literally bought "the same car", but in having both, I can't stress enough, they are totally different machines. So much so, that they might as well be two different model names completely. The beautiful thing about having both is that sometimes I just feel like the "go kart" experience (the 3.8), and other times, I just crave the raw power (4.0) and accompanying sounds. The big point is ... totally new experience with EACH and so much variety to choose from depending on the preferred style of driving!!!!
Amen brother. I owned my 4.0 and 3.8 together for four years but recently sold my 3.8. In retrospect I miss the 3.8 not because it's better but because it was different in it's own unique way. The 4.0 isn't just a 'better' car, it's a different experience that you can only really appreciate after thousands of miles in each. My advice is keep both and enjoy them for their differences.
Looks like the makings of a perfect garage to me my friend. Well done, and I hope you can enjoy them both for many years and many thousands of miles. They simply do not make them like this anymore.
