This'll get more views :-)

I most definitely bought the Audi because I liked the way it drives, but I got a fronttrack version rather than quattro. Part of that is because I didn't know better, but the front wheel drive still handles well, and is fun to drive.

oh no...here come the quattro police who will say that an Audi without quattro is bunk....well I have front-trac and having driven an 02 quattro tip..I must say i like my front-trac better...just think what a stage III front-trac would do.. hmmm...

jprice@CPS

That's not a good comparison (unless you own an 02 tip front-trac)

Yep, front-trac is lighter, less driveline loss.. but if you go stage 3, you'll have a tough time getting traction.. so for high power mods, quattro owns.

You forgot to mention that front-trac saves your clutch.. just eats tires faster.

but this is the best handling FWD car i've driven. I love my FT. I live in Florida (land of straight roads) where the weather is perfect 90% of the year. Most of my miles are made going to and back from work too. So there is no immediate need for Quattro. Yes, it is very very nice. I love driving a Q car...but honestly, I'm not in too many situations where it would make a difference (except lower gas mileage and more powertrain loss).

My Quattro friends go through tires more than I do, just for reference.

If you don't want quattro...why not just buy a Jetta?

Who would want a Jetta over ANY A4? Not me.

jprice@CPS

It was just theory after all ;-)

Either that or your quattro friends drive more nuts than you ;-) (I'm kinda doubting this)
