Default The bimmer boards are buzzing about Car & Driver picking Audi's in comparo tests......

It is SO pathetic. They all loved Car and Driver only a month ago, but now that the RS 6 and S4 beat the M5 and M3, C&D is a French controlled rag that's not worthy of lining a bird cage. The M3 guys are particularly upset (see link below). First the engine recall (so they don't blow up) and now this.

I remember all the battles I waged on this board with Andre (avdh) about how I believed what C&D had to say about BMW's vs Audi's. Well, you can't have it both ways now that the tables have turned

Don't get me wrong, I haven't crossed over to the Dark Side (yet). I still LOVE the M5 and M3, but I'd rather have the new S4- because it IS better overall, IMO.<ul><li><a href="http://bimmer.roadfly.org/bmw/forums/e46m3/forum.php?postid=3006490&amp;page=1">Poking stick in hornet's nest.</a></li></ul>

Default Nope, no thanks. I will not partake in *that* exercise of frustration. No reading links to roadfly.

Those fockers really can be infuriating!
