Default Dec. issue of Car&Driver just tested and reviewed B7...

Mostly favorable comments. But it seems to have torque steer... somewhat of a "first" for an Audi. I guess they are reaching the threshold of what the FWD cars can handle.

Default Was it a FWD model they drove ?

I haven't gotten my december issue yet of C&D.

Which model was it and what did they get for 0-60 ?

Was it a manual or tip and which engine ?


thanks for the info

Default If it was the same test car used by MotorTrend...

then it would be the FWD 2.0T B7 A4 sans quattro.

Default What? Not Quattro? WTF?

If the car doesn't have Quattro, what's the point of testing/ comparing it?
