Default New S4
Is it me or are the specs for the new S4 in terms of performance not all that impressive. The new one has almost 100 more HP and yet the 0 to 60 time is the same if not slightly worse than the previous generation S4. What gives? I was really looking forward to a car that can beat the M3.

Default *sigh* did you bother to read any of the arguments in the last day or so? :-)
Especially how Audi tends to publish severely conservative times for 0-60, etc...

Default Lots of cars can beat the M3
It's only the magazine enthusiasts who think the M3 can beat everything.
