I would have to imagine that the RS5 is faster and will put up better track times than the M3.
Audi had full access to the M3 during the majority of the development of the RS5... they knew their target. If they were unable to beat it 2.5+ years later I think it has to be considered a failure for Audi. |

I am sure that Audi set out with two very distinct goals for the RS5, one was to build a car that was better in every way from the one it replaced and two to exceed the M3's performance stats while putting their own unique stamp on the whole experience, on both counts I am sure it will succeed. After all this is an Audi not a BMW and no one would ever expect or want Audi to mimic the driving experience the BMW give in the M3. |

I wish Audi had flared the front fenders and the rear quarter panels. The front end is SO HOT and then it becomes so bland around the side. It almost looks incomplete. Dont get me wrong, I love this car and want to buy one, but every time I see a hi res pic, it looks so bland.
And I would also prefer a fixed spoiler than a retractable one....IMO. |

Audi needs to decide if it wants to make performance cars or luxury barges. They are a company that is loaded with brilliant engineers, look at the R8 as a perfect example of what they can do if they put their mind to it.
But every Audi in the performance line (S4, RS4, RS6) that I have ever driven has fallen SQUARELY in the "put a bigger engine in the standard luxury car and add some trim pieces" category. As bad as Audi is, Mercedes is even worse. |

M are really special and will stay so, even with FI and AWD. Try X6 xDrive50i and then X6 M. They are amazingly different, and I do not think it is possible to mod an X6 xDrive50i to make it better than X6 M.
