Car Magazine stated that a well-optioned RS5 with ceramic breaks ("for the fronts only") reaches 74,510 pounds. I think that's slightly upward of $111,000.

2012 C63 AMG Black Series
We all know this was a biased test but I can't get over how well the C63 actually did! Cant wait for a dry track test! If you listen at the very end it says something about the results to be completely different on a dry day. Plus you can see how much more fun the C63 is anyways!

Just that final hairpin cost the poor C63 about a second...in the dry it would be a dead heat, which is pretty outstanding. Both great cars.
