My 535d saloon weighs 1,735kg unladen and I wouldn't call it a light weight.

An e46 M3 weights 1,570kg and a CSL 1,385kg.

Maybe I'm looking at the wrong car ?

In true Audi fashion - the Audi website is incorrect.
The correct weight for an RS4 Avant is actually 1710kg, so still not a feither weight, but I've just ejected the fat guy sat beside you compared to your figures. Had this debate recently with someone else, anyway, his log book states 1710kg and Evo always listed it as 1710kg too:

Audi RS4 Avant:
Engine V8
Location Front, longitudinal
Displacement 4163cc
Max power 414bhp @ 7800rpm
Max torque 317b ft @ 5500rpm
Transmission 6-speed manual
Weight (kerb) 1710kg
Power-to-weight 246bhp/ton
0-62mph 4.8sec (claimed)
Max speed 155mph (limited)
Basic price £51,255
Insurance group 20
evo Rating 5 out of 5 stars

Hope this helps!
