Nice article dude.
I know that Quattro GmbH is still very young, and doesn't have the reputation of M and AMG, but if Audi continue launching cars like the RS4, then they'll be a threatening force in the not too distant future.
The problem though is the name "Quattro GmbH". Unlike cars from BMW and Merc where performance products which bear the "M" or "AMG" badging can be traced directly to "M GmbH" and "AMG GmbH", you wouldn't directly make the connection between the "RS" badge and "Quattro GmbH" . I reckon Audi should have called it "Audi RS GmbH" or something along those line.

Audi AG is a German automotive manufacturer of luxury vehicles
headquartered in Ingolstadt, Bavaria, Germany. A subsidiary of the
Volkswagen Group, the company’s origins date back to the early 20th
century and the initial enterprises (Horch and the Audiwerke) founded
by engineer August Horch (1868–1951). Two other manufacturers (DKW
and Wanderer) also contributed to the foundation of Auto Union in 1932.
The modern Audi era began in the 1960s, when Volkswagen acquired Auto
Union from Daimler-Benz, and merged it with NSU Motorenwerke in 1969.
