Default Why do people keep lying about the S button? Heavier steering? sharper brakes? WTF?

Where are people getting this tripe from? I hope it's not Audi!

Default Really....they all make it sound so dramatic.....

when in reality it is just a subtle change. Makes you wonder about things they say about other cars.

The author is no Dennis Miller, but that was fairly entertaining.

Default "Strengths: Brutally fast. Erotic engine noise" Couldn't have put that better!

Brutal. Erotic.

(Think I'll go for a drive.)

But whatever works for you..

Default So true. I let a friend drive the car the other day and he couldn't tell the difference

Granted you need to push past 4k to know for sure, but still, I mean it's not that obvious at first, especially when the engine is not broken in.

Um, I admit I sometimes need to take a shower after an 'enthusiastic' drive.
