fine. BE all logical, see if i care.  no, i think it's a very good thiing 
that the company is building what are arguably the best products they ever 
havem and the masses have clearly noticed.

the other side of that argument is that as a result of trying to sell more 
cars, theres an unavoidable homogozezation that has to happen to increase 
appeal.  thus the cars will/can/could lose some of their "soul" or 
something. i thin kthe current cars have done an absolutely incredible job 
of balancing being exceptionally sellable commodities as well as being true 
ebnthusiast hotrods. i hope it stays that way. bimmer and benz have done a 
pretty good job of it.

i give audi huge credit for that. i guess im jsut a sucker for the badass 
underdog, and audi just isnt anymore. oh well.

imo, the whole reason our cars kick so much a** is that they hammered the 
doors off of everone else and fginally had to get banned to get back in! 
youve gotta love that. it's jsut so punk rock!

anyway, again, sorry for the ranting, i get a little zealotous at night. my 
blood sugar must be dropping...

nighty night.

and to all the s4 rockers out there...  your cars are the baddest and we all 
know it. so smile when you shift for me.
