I have downloaded a bunch of RS2 (and S2) magazine articles from sites like ableitet.no
However, the scan of the legendary comparision test between the RS2, E36 M3 and Maserati Ghibli was of poor quality, so I could barely read the test results, and I needed those for my massive Excel sheet with acceleration data for well over 1000 cars (from magazine tests and my own testing).
Came across and bought this one on Ebay yesterday:

The Sport Auto test also has a special meaning to me, since it was the first time that I read about the RS2, back in 1994, while living in the US (Salt Lake City 93-01).
The old folks back in Norway had gotten a new 1994 80E (still in the collection, of course) that year, so reading about the insane RS2 made a huge impression, and I knew on that day that I would own one some day.
I'm 97% sure that it was the Sport Auto test that I read back then. I do recall the number 400, and I assumed that was the power, but it was likely the torque number (400nm instead of 410nm is sometimes listed) that I mistook for power.
It could have been a magazine test of the SKN tuned RS2 that was tuned to 400ps, but I'm almost positive that it was the Sport Auto test that I read back then, since I vaguely recall the images, although it was 20 years ago,
