You know, this is were I get a little bit confused. Doing my own little research, I have found that the transmission gear ratios of s4 and s5 tII's are different.

s5 tII's actually have a slower 0-60 because you have to shift into 3rd gear, s4's will hit 60 in 2nd gear so s5's have more "shifting lag" time.

Top speed is obviously pushing tward the s5, as well as the 1/4 mile time.

Maybe someone can help me make up my mind.

Japan had a faster OEM Turbo II (~225HP if I remember correctly).

I don't think that the S4 convertible came with an AT. The S5 cars were heavier, so the slowest was probably the S5 AT convertible.

I thought it was really 215hp, i might be wrong.
But the infini is a bad **** I wish I had one. And Gran Turismo doesn't hold true to it

Slowest: Convertible Automatic w/all options
Fastest: Same car after driving off a cliff

But seriously... there was a model in '92 i think called the Infini IV, imagine a GTUs with a 225hp turbo engine in it
