There basically the same. It would come down to driver. But to say it cant keep up is just stupid, especially since he was driving the auto which as I hate to say it is faster.

Based on car and driver's times (since they are your favorite), the s5 will put approx 16 feet on a z through the quarter mile. Not to mention the faster 5-60 times that mean so much more to a street car.

For some reason I cant find much info on the car, but I did find that it does 0-60 in the 5 second range slower then the Z. Whatever, I guess we should just get a stock WRX to reck them both huh?

Not in a straight line.

Per the test I pulled up, both cars go 4.9 to 60. 13.4 for the z in sqm, 13.25 for the s5, which is actually gonna give you about 21 feet.

Be careful comparing 0-60 times, since some are given with rollout and others aren't. Most of the really good (sub 5 second) z times are with rollout.

K so 0-60 is about the same which is sad since the Audi is AWD and has a ton more TQ and the quarter is close (thats one of the highest 1/4 times for a Z i have seen) Figure the S5 is about 10k+ more the my Z i say win to the Z.

I'm not saying it's a better car. I would never consider an Audi. Just saying his claim isn't that far off base.

red6spd · 09-15-2011, 11:03 AM

Well he says the Z cant keep up. On paper it looks like it would keep up pretty well. Keep up in my mind head means it could still lose but not by much. A STI VS a Stock SI there is a car that wont keep up (SI) Whateve.

More like middle-aged sex:
Prone to overheating just a couple minutes in
More prone to grunt than to scream
You think it's rough, because you don't know what you're missing

:trollface:
All in good fun before everyone gets their panties in a a bunch. Take a look at this guys past posts.
