The E90 M3 is an RS4 competitor. It's simply not fair to compare a RS4 to a coupe. There is obviously going to be a weight difference.

But you are right, if you are using an M3 CSL, then the weight difference is going to be even greater and it would be unfair!

Edit: Saying that, I think the RS4 does perform well. Earlier today I was looking at Top Gear times and the RS4 achieved 1.25.something and the M3 CSL achieved 1.28! If we look at the Top Gear stig times it also makes the RS4 faster than a CLS55 AMG, M5, Z4 M AND the Ferrari 575 GTC !
Wait..you mean E46 M3 competitor...not a E92 M3 competitor, right?
