While most all-wheel drive cars are quicker off the line, the S4 isn't quick enough to put enough power down so quickly against an M3, C63 AMG, or IS-F. I'm sorry, but it just won't. I don't care how you slice it. Initially, for the first 20 feet (maybe) it'll have gained a *small* advantage off the line, it'll never be enough to hold off those cars.

Sorry, but while an S4 is a hell of a nice car, it's just not in the same league. Not a stock one, anyway.
