It's another car that's massively over engineered, transmission fluid is cooled through the radiator for example. 260bhp standard but can run over 500/500 on unopened engine with just bolt on parts. How many other cars today, never mind from that era can cope with that.

Not with 300lbft standard, 170+mph top speed and 0-60 in 5.7secs
In standard form they're making 295lbft at 1850rpm

Evo 5 had 275lb Ft, Evo 6 280lb ft. Not far off! 0 -60 under 5 seconds.
Suppose it depends how you decide on fastest ... top end I gues?
Come to think of it, I may be wrong, I think was the avant that was fastest production estate, then the rs4 smashed it.

I imagine there were M5's and alsorts that were quicker but limited to 155 so technically not as fast.
So was the S4, not sure why todd's quoting unlimited speed!
It was supposed to be limited but it weren't lol
