I can't speak for what results you are getting in the US but I know for a fact that over here the S5 is the quicker, admittedly not by much but enough to make me feel confident to tackle any 335i that comes my way.

I know over in the US you don't have the 335d but let me give you a brief run down on the difference between the 335i and the 335d in performance. The 335i will clock the 0-60mph and 0-100mph runs in 5.1s and 12.2s respectively and the 335d covers the same in 5.8s and 12.7s, so in fact as you can see the diesel is slightly quicker over the 60-100mph gap and this improves even after this. Ask anyone over here and they will tell you the same.

Now here is a video of a group race complete with a S5 and a 335d.

Trust me, the S5 is a very quick car.
