How do ou guys fair your AWD sedans vs. RWD sedans...more fun?more practical? what do u think?

They both have their advantages, personally, I'd prefer a RWD car, most here would not.

yeah, AWD all the way. M3s, beware!!! ha ha ha just kidding!!

I was thinking last night - "wouldn't it be nice if audi changed their entire philosphy from FWD and
 
AWD to RWD and AWD?"

It seems to me that the advantages of FWD vs. RWD are only in adverse weather conditions and predictably, safer handling at the limit. But the advantage of FWD over AWD is only money.

It would be very nice to purchase the S and RS models in RWD form and would then pit them squarely against BMW and MB - hmmm.

It would really be nice if Audi let us adjust the center differential...like allowing 100% to be
 
sent to the rear or 50/50 split.

Yep - maybe the ability to do that on the japanese imports coming will help change their minds
 
nahh, of course not. Oh well, stuck with doo-doo quattro:)

Different situations. When I'm in nasty weather, give me AWD
 
When i'm out having fun the RWD is the better proposition, my 911 was a real hoot to drive, "don't lift don't lift!!"" heheh

That's impossible with Quattro, unless you settle for the Haldex system
 
(like the one in the TT)

AWD = great 4 season car in the northeast. Plus, I can toast most RWD cars on the road
 
22 lbs of boost will do that
