or is it closer to what the magazines will manage?

That's quite a bit faster than their number on the V8 S4. Is the S5 going to be quite a bit lighter?

all Audis need to go on the vehicular equivalent of the South Beach diet, IMO.

there's nothing in the press release which leads me to believe that the S5 would be significantly lighter than the S4. Maybe 100 lbs or so (mk2 TT is 200 lbs. less than the mk1, and it's mostly aluminum).

the S4 so I suspect the weight will be at least the same - though with better weight distribution
