Looks to me the A45 won it from start to finish

From the software tunes advertised so far, they put the A45 in the 3 second zone 0-100km/h so a low 12 or in the 11's is not surprising.

Can't wait to eventually get myself an A45

Too bad there is nothing in Japan that gives you extra HP from the dealer.

Correct. A 1999 Model 996 GT3 with 265kw (same as A45) but 2wd and 15 years old now. Performance quote at 4.6sec for 0-100kph and 12sec for the 1/4 mile. *(sound familiar?). You could also state that the A45 is faster than an F360, DB7, Corvette C5 and even a C55 AMG such is the nature of progress and technology.
