fastest
5 Answers
considering the fact that the r8 is a coupe compared to the rs4 which is a sedan, the r8 is goin to be faster just due to the fact that it weighs a lot less. They do however both have the same 4.2 liter v8, but the r8 is .2 seconds faster from 0-60.
The R8 is faster, especially around corners, however it is not that much lighter, only slightly... B7 RS4=3703#, R8=3439# or approx. 250# difference, in comparison, the B5 RS4=3571#, only 150# more than an R8...
