Weight distribution...

Now maybe they can get the power up and the weight down put that's a good first step.<ul><li><a href="http://www.fourtitude.com/news/publish/Audi_News/article_3063.shtml">http://www.fourtitude.com/news/publish/Audi_News/article_3063.shtml</a</li></ul>

Default I saw that in a mag. Yes, a good thing...they were able to move the engine back due to...
placing it behind the transaxle rather than directly over it, IIRC.

Now that Audi has changed tweaked the weight distribution and offers a nice coupe, i think i might consider this S5 over the M3. Thanks Audi!

Hmmm ... I wonder where the CG is compared to the A4/S4/RS4 chassis?

"getting it right" and 50/50 weight distribution are not synonymous.

Default That's why I asked about CG.
If the CG is lower that will make a larger difference.
