Agree on the front bias for TT-RS, however - how great does it feel to drive?

Have you driven a 2013 RS5 or based on the older one? While it is still a fat pig and understeers, it is much better than the first iteration (which I have not driven, but was universally condemned). I will argue that the E92 M3's steering is quite numb as well (at least when compared to my Z4MC), it only really comes alive on the track somewhat with the sport boosting etc.

I am really hoping weight is kept down (as promised) which with the extra torque will make it a winner.
