        damn dude 4014 pounds!!! that is sooo heavy! If it shed like 300 lbs it could prob hit 10.9 round 130.. that car is a beast with potential if it wasnt so damn heavy!

        That weight is with the driver. It isn't too bad for an AWD sedan.

        I thought the M5 was around 4200. And isnt the C63 around 4000? So if the RS4 weighs 4014 with driver thats not bad at all.

        It would run 11.5s if it lost 300lbs and might gain 3 mph at most

        Rule of thumb is 1/10 and 1 mph per 100 pounds.
