Default of course, you're assuming you can catch me, out manuver me, out brake me

in other words, a pipe dream.

Default Do you really want to be in a wreck with a Suburban when your in a dinky 1,300lb car?

You would be squished like a bug. A 1,300lb car might haul *** on a track, but its just not safe on the street.
Driving around trucks in a tiny 2,800lb GSX is scrary enough... Sometimes you look out the window and the driveshaft of the lifted Ford next to you is right with your head.

Default Well, seeing that I had an accident with a 80,000 lb International 18 wheeler

with my parent's 3000 lb car a month ago, I'd say that power, manuverability, super brakes are much more important. Of course, this means that you should be able to avoid the accidents.

The parent's car had more power but couldn't get out of the way in time.

Default Holy ****. I totally missed that.

What type of car was it? I assume you came out in one piece?

Nice Brian, but this probably belongs on the A6 aka RS6 forum,

IMO, RS6 posts are acceptable! But since when did my opinion count

Default I don't even want to get started on this subject, it's all very ridicolous

if only someone would put out a semi plug and play standalone people would get their prices in check real quick...not happening though

Default A lighter car does not need the same amount of power.

Would you run your S4 vs an A4 if it is making the same amount of hp?

Default You are saying conflicting things so I'm kinda lost.....

"Same hp with more weight is going to do that to a car." That would mean I have the same amount of power, which I said I do not. Of course I understand how weight affects things, but all I am saying is I have nowhere near 450 hp so I was expecting more out of the RS6.
