Should be a close battle between RS4/5 and M3 - especially if Audi can find a way to put an updated version of a dual-clutch transmission inside. Seems that although the weight distribution is improved with the new A4/S5, still not quite as good of balance as M3. I know that Fifth Gear did a track comparo of the S5 v. 335i and the 335i edged it out just barely, despite a 60 hp deficit. Unless Audi makes a significant number of modifications to the RS5 or new RS4 over the S5, seems the M3 (particularly with M DCT) will still have a slight edge.
