The S4 you raced must have been a stock automatic, because a 6 speed well launched will have a big advantage at least through 60, and a chipped S4 6 speed (as most are) is no contest.
As for the M3 mentioned, 4.7 0-60 is for the pre production coupe, no one has tested a production version yet, and it does mid 13's in the QMile, I beat a convertible in a close race from 60 mph to about 130 in my chipped S4.

It's a Stick....Blue/Six speed/5200miles on the ODO. I was checking out the car after the race. Very nice car indeed (for a sedan).

Well, S4 stick is not hard to beat for S2000 only if you have a good launch.
My friend is gonna have a stage 1 upgrade for S4. He told me it would boost it up to 320HP. I have NOS(60 shot), V-AFC, Injen Intake(New one), and Mufflers. I hope I can win.

Actually the latest edition of Automobile tested all the M cars and the M3 Convertible only pulled a 5.4.
