No, the RS5 is faster than M3 6MT. Only the M3 7DCT keeps up with the RS5. RS5 has advantage from start (perfect traction thanks to AWD), M3 has advantage at higher speed (less drivetrain loss with RWD).
Now, if the RS5 is not really faster than the M3, it does not mean it is worse. The RS5 does not have the same purpose as the M3, so there are many other things, where the RS5 is better than the M3 (I am not going to give any examples).
When shall people understand that Audi is not the better BMW, but Audi is just another german premium brand?
