Default I had an 04, & sold it for the S. It was a really nice car, but in my opinion, it wasn't meant

To be a daily driver. It's difficult to get in &amp; out of when running errands on Sat, &amp; I HATED the Haldex AWD. It doesn't allow the car to rotate in a corner under acceleration. So, the car has AWD traction, but doesn't behave like a proper AWD car should.

Default They look damn fun. Fight the ALLURE of a bunch of parts in a tight space with advanced engineering.

oh but it's so sexy. Reminds me of women; bunch of up keep to keep them purring. That's why we like Audi's so much.

Default Out of ever car I have owned it was the most fun to drive...

It handles amazing and is very lively. With a turbo it would be a true beast.

Why did you switch? how do you like the RS6? Is the RS6 great for twisty driving or too big? luxury?

Rs6 felt way too heavy when I drove it.
