Default Drove an Allroad yesterday....

handles and accelerates great (considering size&wt.) and seemed very well put together. Cool air suspension and 2.7 make it a great replacement for most SUVs.

Default I drove one too. Different view -disappointed

Guys,

Well, from an SUV perspective it aint bad. It is quick and handles well. But, it shares little with the S4, beyond the 2.7tt engine.

While the interior looks nice (though no great shakes), it has a thin steering wheel with cheap feeling Tiptronic buttons compared to the S4. It just doesn't feel as solid overall.

Rick
