I could be wrong of course.
I'm not exactly sure what the price gap is, but if it's less then say $5,000 then will have to agree to disagree.

Although it is not an accurate reflection of the potential price difference between the S5 and the 335i, however if you take similarly equipped 335i coupe and 2007 S4 the price difference is about $6000
Options are:
Leather (standard on the S4)
Sports
Navigation
Paint.

If you make adjustments for the X-drive then that difference is slightly more than $4000
Now the question is how much more will the S5 cost over the S4.

Trere is a price gap but the 335i is not fully loaded like the S5:

IMO, it is the interior details that make the Audi interiors special.

I think we might have a reporting error there considering how fast they were able to get the RS4 do the same sprint.

Something tells me your right. By the way, what was the RS4's 0-60 time?

I think the official time is either 4.6 or 4.8 sec for 0-60. I think was revised downwards to 4.6s if I am not mistaken.
If I can recollect, Motorweek clocked the RS4 at 4.2 sec sometime ago.

4.2sec huh, that's the quickiest time I've heard yet, I've read 4.3sec on a few occasions but usaully between 4.7 and 4.4 seconds.
