About the S4 B8

The 2012 Audi S4 B8 (2012) is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,665 kg with 329 bhp, which works out at 197 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.98 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,623rd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 137th quickest of the 1320 Audis here. Its 105.3 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 10 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Audi S4 B8 (2012) 0-60 time?
The Audi S4 B8 (2012) reaches 60 mph in 4.47 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,623rd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Audi S4 B8 (2012) quarter mile time?
13.04 s at 105.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.36 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.98 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Audi S4 B8 (2012) have?
329 bhp and 1,665 kg, which is 197 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 250 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Audi S4 B8 (2012)?
Closest here on pace: Bentley Continental GTC 4.0 V8 500 (4.45 s), Holden Commodore Sedan 6.0 V8 367 (4.50 s), Pontiac G8 GT (4.54 s). Each one can be raced against the Audi S4 B8 (2012) in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Audi S4 B8 (2012) is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
