Default That A4 cabrio. is REALLY slow... >:-(

the website says 0-60 is 7.4 for the 3.0 - that's pathetic! an SUV could take it down! what does the thing way 3 tons? Is this some crazy gearing issue? I was reading a review on some ltd ed Vette and they said it topped out at 57mph in 1st - holy monkey ****e! think of what slightly taller gearing would do for our acceleration #s!

Also, it's kinda objectionable lookin' &gt;:-(

I think quattro prevents that sort of gearing in our cars

Sounds like you're short on the caffeine today. Have a triple espresso &amp; try again.
