Audi RS4: Good god!

Audi RS4
One of our favorite editors, Karl Brauer, has made a nice review of the Audi RS4. He seems to be very impressed. No wonder.
This is one of those cars with powers that border on ludicrous. It's not the 420 horsepower, 4.5 second zero-to-60 time or .89Gs of lateral grip that make it nonsensical, it's the ability to do all this while carrying four passengers, weighing almost 4,000 lbs and providing all-wheel-grip during inclement weather. I happen to be driving it during the latter, which initially had me quite frustrated. Then I realized that driving the car during varying levels of rainfall was the best possible environment for uncovering its advantages over comparable sport sedans. Sure enough, I was soon piloting the car nearly as aggressively as I would on bone dry pavement (how many other sport sedans can I say that about?).
