100% agree
There is no way a car with 20% more power and 20% more torque, same weight would not win 3/3 runs

Considering they are both very similar engines, both turbocharged.
There is no way the bmw would come out ahead, unless it launched quicker than the Audi
Which it did the first run for sure
I’m a fanboy of both brands, I’ve owned 4 M3s, and A5, S4, 2 S5s, and now an RS5 so I’m fairly objective
They are both great brands, and they both make great cars
But 20% power deficiency can’t be overcome because it has an M badge
