It has disapointed once again like the RS4 did to audi owners in terms of the power its putting to the ground. They never quite measure up with the 4.2 v8 they use and likely a lot of it is the AWd sucking drive-line power out by the time it hits the wheels.

So on paper its 450hp looks good but its putting down 350 to the wheels and the car weighs 4000 pounds. Straight line in any of the videos and the m3 really pulls on the car.

Corners the m3 feels much better so at the end of the day the only reason to take the rs5 is if you like the look or the interior which I agree both are beautiful and I really love the look of the RS 5.

Agreed though the S6 would be the audi of my choice right now
