Oh, I just realized something! The RRS-S suffers from
curb weight syndrome. It is a disease found mostly in SUVs such as this, or the Cayenne. Its effects include aggressively-tuned exhaust notes that make it sound and feel like you're going fast... but in reality, you just can't pass that 525i next to you.
Curiously, although the X5 is just about as heavy as the Cayenne S, it is exempt from the syndrome. It feels like it's going fast (4.8i)... because it
is.
