Default Performance numbers from Car and Driver

New C&D tested the B9 in the latest issue.

0-60 - 5.2 sec
1/4 Mile - 13.9 sec @ 100mph
70-0 Braking - 155 feet

Pretty respectable numbers, and as usual Audi understates their performance numbers on their own site. Brakes seem especially strong. Excited to pick mine up today!

Is their review online? I don't see it on their website yet.

Thanks,
Brian

I don't know. Read it on the iPad last night and the issue just became available.

C&D always manages to get much better numbers than I can, no matter what the car.

If 0-60 in 5.2 seconds is an accurate real-world number, that's damned impressive.

5.2 seconds is when using "launch control" reving the motor to 3000 rpm before releasing the brakes.

The 5 mph to 60 mph normal acceleration is 6.0 seconds...
