Maybe they feel it offers a more refined driving experience?
Afterall, the Porsche track king is not the TT 911, but the GT3.
To me there's something more intimate about being able to control the engine with every input of throttle, vs. mashing the pedal and waiting for boost to kick in.
I never have been a fan of turbo'd cars, even though I think they can be fun in their own right. Its just not what I'm after.

Actually what people are debating is this.
If and when an affordable supercharger is avilable for the 4.2 S4 engine, is it a beter bang for the buck performancewise to install it on an S4 rather than pay for an RS4. Or buy a used S4 and supercharge it rather than a new RS4. As for the M3, it will be hot right out of the box with factory warranty included for less money than an RS4. Especially appealing to those who don't need to drive in bad weather. Or those that worship at the temple of the blue and white propeller.
