In real world driving it's going to be faster than an M3. The cars are running 12.4@110+ stock, 12.1-12.2@112-113 tuned consistently. The trap might be lower but for all intensive purposes the RS5 is going to put down the power in every situation better than an M3 below 120mph which is not a real surprise with the AWD. The only surprising thing being, it is a good bit heavier, and it does make 'about' the same power. However on paper that doesn't really show, it's a mid 12's 110mph car on every run

Only reason its running slightly quicker is the AWD launch. If any roll situation as evidenced by every single video I have seen, the m3 pulls quite easily from the rs5.
