Audi Ur-Q vs. Mustang 308

[Jon Linkov]

Because, for the most part, Audiworld is pure fantasy and stacking the deck.
Read most of the comments and note that everyone can dust ANY car so long as
they can do modifications.

"I can toast a Ferrari GTO just by replacing both turbos, replacing the
camshafts, chipping, new exhaust, etc, etc, yadda, yadda."

They all talk about what they CAN do with the right modifications.
