WHO Is The DRAG QUEEN? Sorry, DRAG KING! Audi S4, BMW 340i Or The Mercedes C43 AMG?

Three mid-performance German sedans head to head on the drag strip. The 2020 BMW M340i First edition, The Mercedes-AMG C43 and James' very own and NEWLY ACQUIRED 2018 B9 Audi S4. The Mercedes boasts the biggest numbers on paper but the BMW is the newest of the bunch. Who will take the win, and by how much?

There's only one way to find out why 340 is way faster than the other two

Dyno them

The M340i goes like stink and even stinkier with xdrive. Its acceleration matches the outgoing M4 with RWD, and bests it with xdrive. Pretty serious stuff. And S4 and C43 hold their own pretty well despite being a few ticks behind. Seriously, no slouch here at all. I will say that I thought the S4 would win this b/c of quattro and the BMW and M-AMG are RWD. I also thought the C43 would run from the S4 in the rolling acceleration for the same reasons, but maybe it wasn't quit ehte same rolling races that CarWow does.

I'd rather have a Hemi Charger.

@ cidflekken: You're mistaken about the specs: ALL cars are AWD. And of course MDarringer wouldn't give credit were credit is due...so,c'mon Man, admit that You're jealous of what BMW has achieved over a Century: Brand Recognition, and they makes some Damn Good Cars!!!LOL!

Ah I stand corrected. I didn't realize they put 4Matic on the C43 and I thought the M340i would have been designated as M340i xdrive.

I think BMW uses those large beer wagon horses for their horse power measurements.
