Default Depends on your definition of "quickest"

Off the line 0-62 times, S4 6spd as you say (but not by a lot). Not sure about 50-100 times, the S4 would make a good go at that too. I'd say 100-150 would have to be the S8, which probably would have the fastest 0-100 and 0-150 times too.

Default There was a post here a while ago that listed all (US maybe?)..

I couldn't find it with a quick search. But don't forget the A8 W12.....

Default I agree.

With about $2000 for a chip and exhaust the S4 would have no problem rolling with an S8 at any speed. But stock the S6/S8 would be faster at higher speeds and probably equal at 0-60, perhaps slightly slower (depends on driver).
Overall the quickest audi is the RS4 (Germany, england)

Default A stock S4 should not loose to an S6/S8 0-60 with the same driver.

They tested them at 5.4/5.5 0-60 in some magazines.

Yes it is. Audi sold it, so what if another tuner worked on the engine.
