Actually even the "limited" RS4 can accelerate to 270 km/h with no problem like previous RS6. Audi has a flexible approach to the 250 km/h limit.
Sounds right to me. The RS4 that Sport Auto tested in the super test didn't have a limiter and they got up to 262 km/h on the Dottinger Hohe. I'd it could easily do 275 km/h
