New 3.2 question

I had a 2005 2.0T and upgraded to a 2007 3.2 - night and day difference. Even if you chip the turbo to get the same or more power, still night and day. The 3.2 is soooo smooth in comparison. It has good torque, and breathes so well, all the way to 7k. It's a really nice engine.

Agree, 2.0T is greatly improved now. But to also be fair both the B8 2.0T and 3.2 received a 10 hp bump from the B7 versions (200>211, and 255>265 respectively). 2.0T did a get a huge torque increase though.

I went from 3.0 to 2.0 -- couldn't be happier
I know the 3.2 is a sweet engine, but I'm happy with my 2.0. My last two Audis were sixes, and I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would buy a car with a four banger. Compared to my 2002 3.0 car, my '09 2.0 feels much peppier, and the fuel economy is great. The car also weighs less than one with a six, making for better handling.
I could have afforded the 3.2 and was worried I would lose some "prestige" by going with the 2.0. Hell no. This car is fun to drive and every time I drive past a gas pump without having to stop to fill up makes me glad I made the right decision.
I didn't buy my car to race other people, but I do know that it takes more than horsepower to win many races. And, if I am ever so inclined, I know that improved performance is just a chip and exhaust system away.
