audi 90q20v

[Dave]

The only gripe I have about the 90q20v is that a lot of the
mechanical parts are unique to the 20v, hence more expensive.
My advice is to drive a 20v and compare it to a regular 90q
and decide if it's worth the extra hassle and $$$.  If you
drive in snow, the AWD is definitely worth having.
