Default difference between A5 and 09 A4

New to the forum and have a question for anyone in the know. If the new A4 is pretty much the same size and weight as the new A5, why are their 0-60 times so different? Audi lists A5 at 5.8 and the A4 at 6.2. I would think they would both be about the same. Any ideas? Anybody drive the new A4 and have a sense? Edmunds.com did a "first drive" article and their time was 6.9. That seems awfully slow if true.

We haven't received much info on the 09 as of yet but I believe one of the difference so far is the power distribution, it is now 60-40, 60 to the rear wheels for more power.

I dont know if a4s 3.2 will be the same as a5s 3.2. But their chassis should be the same.
