You guys sell the S5 incredibly short. I did a half-day Audi driving school and tracked an RS4, S5, and R8 at the end of the day. The professional drivers (and these were race drivers) all preferred and raved about the S5 over the RS4. The balance and chassis of the S5 is far superior to the RS4 engine-in-front-of-the-front-axle design. When it came to the R8s, no students in the school could even pressure the instructors in the S5s. Yes, there was an experience disparity, but the S5 is still a well-balanced and formidable sportscar. And that is a de-tuned version of the R8/RS4 V8...lots of potential to turn it into a beast.
And please don't forget that Nismos are slower than simple Sport 370Zs.
