Heavy? Yup... 3659 pounds!

Too bad, was looking forward to seeing what the new S4 would do, there's always hope for the RS4

I know a guy who owns a "chipped" RS4, it out performs his mate's 360 Modena !!!!!!

Can you imagine that in an estate (station wagon) !!!!!

Lunatic performance, but fun !!!!!!!

Yea, I don't understand why it's heavier. The motor is basically the same weight as the 2.7TT V6.
