Missed the Caddy by 1 point!? Are you kidding me!? The price of the car killed the C55 in points otherwise it takes 2nd easily! Road&Track gave the C55 1st place over the S4.

The Caddy does look very hot though! The interior isn't as good as I truly believe the C55's interior is the best of the bunch!

I'm not saying how I know, but there was this silver S4 playing with a C55 on the 5 fwy to Coronado this weekend. The S4 kept tyring to tempt the C55 driver into a quick run, but most of the time there was too much traffic. When the traffic finally opened up & the loud pedal was pressed on both, the S4 quickly became a shrinking image in the C55's rear view mirror on a short blast to 145. It was only close for the first couple seconds at most. Sad part was, the S4 guy wouldn't give up even after being stomped.

Yeah, I think it shoulda been #1 also.

However, I don't know about the C55 kicking the S4's *** on teh track, at least for a track with turns. The S4 handles very well and its suspension in my opinion is superior to the C55. However, the C55's power lets it neutralize the S4's handling superiority. In the hands of an expert race driver, I think the C55 would do better (its harder to drive this car fast) vs the S4 which is easier to drive fast for non-professional drivers due to the point and shoot nature of Quattro (I love my A4 Quattro!).

In a straight line? Yeah the C55 should take the S4. Its 1 second ahead of the S4 in the quarter based on some published specs I believe?

I am no expert and no experience of tracks and neither I know much about S4. May be you are right, the gaint 5.5 litre V8 AMG engine is the magic forumula.

sorry guys, I had to remove the link...I did not realize that the person who put up the thread put a note on there not to post it on other forums. I clicked the link when I saw it (and did n't read anything else) and never went back to the page

wait a sec...

you took the link down b/c someone in another forum asked not to post the link!? Ummmm...ok.

That video was killer too! It was on SpikeTV so what does that person care? Well I saved the video so when I get home, I'll see if I can host it for the rest of you that didn't get to see it.

cuz their bandwidth is limited from his ISP and I did not know that. I wouldn't want someone posting a link to my server with limited bandwidth (he had posted a link to keep it within AW). It wasn't because he didn't want others not to see the video :p Just trying to respect other people's wishes...

someone else can host it

Did anyone get the video? I sent it to 3 of you but I noticed it was still trying to send on my computer at home. Now I'm at work so I can't send it here.
