I dunno about anyone else but that sounds like plenty.
Some of these cars out here are over-endowed with power that will never be used. Manufacturers are happy to charge a premium to supply us Americans with all the power we are willing to pay for. Sometimes it's just illogical. I see little old guys all the time in AMG Benz. Why?

I checked, it comes with 450 hp.

Sad, really...because unless you track often, I doubt that .2 seconds will EVER come into play. EVER.
And that's why I love Audi's. Design>>>performance. I'd rather have SMOKING HOT car with 300HP (just an example) than a bland car with 400HP. And speaking of which, holy hot momma, those pictures! Sadly, the RS5 does not come with a manual gearbox like the S5 does...

While I would own one in a heartbeat the RS5 has gotten its butt kicked in most major reviews in Europe, losing to the IS F/C63/M3 in EVO and CAR. Its pricey and to them the suspension isn't sorted at all and it lacks torque.

Can you imagine the stunned look on driver's faces when they're staring at the tailights of a station wagon?
Nice to look at, but especially for the price, not worth the premium.

I've always said it would be a blast to debadge one and then blow the doors off of 98% of cars on the road.

if i am correct, both lexus lfa and ferrari 458 you have to put in the key, and then press on the start button.
