they rated the 0-60 at 3.8....and said the coupe is .2 slower....should we take this with a grain of salt

Lol, it barely makes sense...

The RS5 is advertised at 3.9 seconds. But it actually does it in 3.5?

The RS5 is actualy stated at 3.7 seconds 0-60mph by Audi and Audi is quite conservative with their claimed acceleration times.

For instance, the RS3 is quoted at 3.9 0-60mph by Audi and Car & Driver clocked it at 3.5. There is no reason to believe the RS5 will be any slower.

In Europe, Audi claims a 3.9 second 0-100km/h for the RS5 and AM&S achieved 3.6 seconds when they tested it. If you look at European magazine test results, the RS5 is consistently faster to 100km/h than the M3/4 by 0.5~0.6 seconds. That is a significant difference.

I see...I wouldn't take a quattro in a drag race with my f80 6mt. That's just asking to be left in the dust Although some days it connects and it feels blistering fast

I always feel like I bought the wrong car...The rough roads and my driving skill keep the M3 very tame...But then I just look at the body of the F80 and 6MT
