My A4 Avant has a kerb weight of 1185kg which I don't think is too heavy for a car of its size Granted the RS4 has the added weight of the 4x4 drivetrain and a proper engine though

Was gonna say that's a hell of a jump from my 1185kg Wish mine had a bigger engine. Once I kill this engine I may have to put an 1800 turbo lump in

My M8 owns the RS4 that done the gumball, blue one sponsored by serwin vega thats been on men & motors a couple of times. Got to say this is one quick motor, i believe the guy that drove it in the gumball spent the night in a jail in Las Vegas for being clocked at well over the 2oo mph in the desert some place . Both my cossies are quick but not that quick. Respect where its due but then my cars didnt cost the wrong side of 50K
