wow cool it down there superaudifan 
if you had read my initial driving review it would say that maybe because im used to the 55 engine that it may have been part of the reason i felt the car was underpowered...
but i did love the car, it was a very impressive car - BUT it did not provide the oomph of a fast car and give any sort of an adrenaline rush when stepping on it, it just felt weak, and numbers say about 5 seconds and to be honest it didnt feel like it, but it was very smooth and this could be why it did not feel that fast, im used to a burst of speed, this was a smooth linear motion of speed... different, the RS5 is what i would wait for if i were to purchase this car, but with audi depreciation i would wait a year and buy a used one...

I looked at one yesterday and I love the bodystyle. The Front LEDS look awesome and the interior is flawless. It might be underpowered but from a styling it is great.
