Maybe not...
This one lists the S4 engine at 430lbs. Not quite what you are looking for, but an interesting reference point. I thought when Audi introduced the B6 S4 they claimed that the V8 isn't any heavier than the V6 biturbo.<ul><li><a href="http://wheeltalk.fancal.net/?p=634">http://wheeltalk.fancal.net/?p=634</a</li></ul>

Article was worth a read to me... letting off the clutch in first gear with no gas...
and the car doesn't stall as they said. You can't release the clutch quickly but if you do it smoothly, the car doesn't stall.

Correct....Audi Press release on B6 S4 says 430lb for the 4.2 V8
The entire V8, with a gross weight of just 430 pounds, is as light as its predecessor in the previous S4's twin-turbo 2.7-liter V6 engine.<ul><li><a href="http://media.audiusa.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=9045">http://media.audiusa.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=9045</a</li></ul>
