How often do you get challenged on the road?

Only about 1.5 sec difference b/t M2 and CLA45 on a controlled track with a pro driver. Barely .01 sec difference in a drag race b/t the A45 and M2. The CLA would probably have beaten a manual M2 on the lap. A well tuned CLA45 could beat either if the driver does his part.
Of course it's all up to the driver. This lap throws in the RS3 for more fun:

Hahaha! Amen to that... i see minivans zoom passed by me, and i would tell myself had i been doing that speed and weaving in and out of lanes the way they do, I'd definitely get pulled over!
I literally got pulled over once in my previous e class coupe, just because it "looked" fast. I had it on cruise control at 40 on a 35, call me lazy. The motorcycle cop asked me "what's the hurry"?

Light and nimble with a decently stout turbo 5 cylinder right out of the factory. Stock would run comparable to the C43. A simple tune/bolt-ons and they'll probably be in the C63s neighborhood. If they are "highly modified" meaning upgraded turbo, then anything is possible at that point. The 500+lbs less curb weight really helps.

That 'not even here' yet RS3 isn't the one SBH- was running in his car and the whole point to us talking about the RS3.
But you don't have to convince me how badass Audi's are. I've owned 2 and my parents drive 2014 A8 and 2017 Q7. If the New S4 was out last year, I'd be driving that instead of my 450 right now (I aint mad about that though
)
