^^^^They could be wrong, the area and conditions could have been more favourable for the audi.

This is not a good argument, because a RS4 can also beat a 360 Spyder. You remember this video?

The RS4 is faster off the line, but from a rolling start is difficult to say, altough i guess the RS4 is quicker overall.

And btw, the C32 is outdated by the C55 .

This is true the upcoming C55 AMG will feature a normally aspirated V8 that will produce around 367hp. I have the misfortune of announced you that our small competition will not be finished with the upcoming RS4 4.2 V8 40v Naturally Aspirated 420 bhp.

Personally i'm a big fan of both cars. But if I had to choose which one to buy, i'd be going for the RS4 - Audi's styling looks much more sexy and appealing than the C-class - inside and out.

I disagree with who said that street racing are not the best comparison test. I think that this is the only test (safety conditions allowing). Tracks are very different from the real world, and even those “Jurassic Monstrous engines American Seventies” (with all my respects but their not for my personal taste) do great quarter mile times.

I think that a lot of things could have happen. The RS4 was with their Y-pipe disconnected (a very usual problem), turbo problems, bad fuel, dement driver, etc.
But, definitely the RS4 loose.

The only thing that I can reinforce for the MB guys is: Save this video in a carefully manner, cause it is unique.

I think that we all should agree on that we disagree concerning "C32 vs RS4".

It's hard to tell from the video, but to me, it sounds like pre-redline shifts. BUt the turbos do muffle the sound a lot. I haven't looked at the numbers, but I'm guessing they're pretty close in performance numbers...they seemed to pull pretty even until the Audi driver shifted...and took quite a long time doing it...

I would take either car.
