Audi's speed in the segment

[Calbee]

Hi,

I was just wondering how the A4 compares in terms of speed in its class. against 328i, C300, IS250

[hercfe]

about the median. it is moderate in terms, but it's luxury far surpasses that of the 328, c300, ans any IS model sans the IS-F

Speed or quickness?

[hercfe]

i'm sure he means quickness. rarely is a car measured by top speed, unless its jeremy clarkson doing the measuring.

Lexus- 7.5 sec.

Add a simple ECU chip (pick any) and the 6.4 drops to sub 6 seconds.

I'm thinking my car is really close to 6 stock, I've done a few timed runs and have hit really low numbers(for what's reported of this car). It is nothing legitimate, but I plan on making it official before I get my ECU tune, and then once again having some official runs after.

It also depends on transmission. I believe the MT times were posted (AT with the Lexus) as my FWD AT A4 2.0 T does 0-60 in about 7.1 seconds.

A bigger difference is driveline. Of the four mentioned cars, only the Audi is front- or all-wheel drive. The others are rear- or all-wheel drive.
