Note that 1/4 time is identical to previous tests of the M3. I really expected the Caddy to do better 0-60, but its power shows in the higher speeds.
And the M3 is more comfortable than the Caddy? What's this world coming to?

Yeah I would expect environmental factors to likely explain the times. These are also the best times I have seen posted on the RS5. However, best 1/4 mile time I have ever seen on a stock M3 is 12.6.
