C55 Beats RS4 and M3 in accelration c&d
The c55 was .1 seconds faster then the bmw and audi. The audi won overall in handling, iguess its nicer then the m3 or damn close. I don't put much stock in C&D as their 0-100 times are just stupid sometimes.

The numbers for the C55 and M3 were from separate tests from different previous issues.
In other words you really can't compare the performance numbers in that article.
Most of the time C&D manages to measure acceleration times which are faster than manufacturer's claims, so the RS4 may well be faster than the C55 and M3.
