Default Automobile on G35 AWD has me wondering, what AWD sports sedan would you replace the S4 with?...
recently got my latest Automobile magazine and was perusing through it and noticed they had a big spread regarding the new Infiniti G35x (or AWD sedan) Granted I dont know how they drive for there are no inifiniti dealers up here, but it got me contemplating again on "upgrading" from the B5 to another AWD sports sedan. I have over 130,000 miles so its been and on again off again thought process. I guess I can "fault" Audi for building such a well rounded car in the B5 S4, but I am having a hard time finding something to replace it. Is the S4 that well rounded, or is it a little like Christine and possesses you?

Default the only other AWD sedans I'd consider would be newer Audis
B7 RS4, specifically.

Default if you don't include style, class, fit and finish in "well rounded", sure.
great track cars, but I wouldn't want one for a daily.

Default Love the interior, too
And the brakes are good.

And the suspension is good.

It's really a lot like Volvo's answer to a chipped B5 S4.
