Quarter mile in the mid 11's, 0 to 60 in mid 3's, 560 horsepower, AWD...pretty damn fast car. I think they're around $130,000. Quicker than an M6 but a little slower than the Merc CLS63 AMG.

check out what the APR tune does to one of those beasts.

670 crank HP on 93 with just a stage 1 tune.

Not necessarily.
These Euro cars pull hard up top.

Here is a vid of an APR tuned RS7 going 10.507@212.7kph (132.17mph)

These cars absolutely fly with a simple tune!!!

The next RS5 unfortunately will not get this motor. It will likely get the motor from the S6/S7 with 420hp/406tq.... Maybe massaged a bit for a few extra ponies. The current RS5 makes similar HP at 450hp but only makes 317tq at 4000rpm vs. peak torque of 406 at 1400rpm on the current S6/S7 mill

They really are sweet, but not worth the price tag IMO.
