This comparison is hardly fair.

The photo gallery doesn`t seem to be working.

Price for Rs4 is 69.900 € and 63.394 € for C55. Closer than you might think.

RS4
Furios responding, V8 with high engine speed, agiles handling, enormous driving safety and traction as obligation, style-sporty equipment and frenetisch pounding sound as Kuer. Thus one wins hearts - and tests.

C55
Capacity-enormously, wuchtig, cultivates and automatikgezaehmt: The strong C-class offers sumptuous achievement and dynamic reserves in gediegenem Ambiente. Despite better suspension it is enough only for rank two.

If you buy the issue you can see 0-200km/h figures.

Remember that magazines do comparisons between just about every car they can think of. It's their job! What good would an article be if one car was sooo much better than the other? They've got to stretch things a little. Now the C55 and RS4 comparison is fairly logical but the RS4 is something completely different from the C55. Similar price doesnt mean you've got a fair comparison on your hands.

All Im saying is that C55 and RS4 are not to far away if you look at the price. P.G you didnt have to write a essay about it

I pride myself on being thorough.

This is acceleration numbers from the test

0-200 km/h
Audi: 15.6 sec
Merc: 18 sec

Impressive times by the RS4
