Default Interesting Perception

After driving my new A6 2.7 for a few days now the most noticeable difference is that you really "feel" the speed in this car, going lets say 80mph it feels like its going much faster than my GS400 felt at the same speed.

At first I thought it was just in my head, but a couple of friends surprisingly made the same comment to me.

By the way, I like the feeling.

Default I felt the opposite, but I was driving a Stanza before :)

The Stanza struggled so much to get up to 80. But my 2.7T does it so effortlessly.

Default Midori - what Stanza? I've had a '90 Stanza XE and an '82 hatchback - the '90 was a great car

the '82 was a rust garden, made with 'recycled metal'.

Default a '91 XE ->

It was our "SUV" for a while. We put a ton of miles on it when we were living in Pittsburgh.
