Probably still light for German standards. Their new sedans need 500hp to get anywhere.

*Less than 3000lbs/1400kg. Not that heavy. Maybe it's the gearing.

I will take this over an A3 anyday.

The rear 3/4 angle is just gorgeous.

Peak horsepower is only that.

I'd be interested to see what it's torque curve looked like.

It's the engine from the S3 so 258 ftlb at 2500 rpm. probably the slow 0-60 is due to it's inability to put all the power down?
