You traded in a big comfy car with excellent aerodynamics for a
high-strung compact with a larger displacement engine, that weighs
more? Oooookay. Well, at least it'll be more fun to drive, I guess.
I would have bought a TDI Golf or Passat in a heartbeat and laughed
all the way from the gas station. The gas savings would have paid
easily for a nice set of Hakkas for the wintertime. Each to his own!
:-)
The second a TDI is offered with AWD/ 5 speed, and I've got the
money- I'm sold. Maybe by the time one is offered, I will have the
money...lord knows I'll never have the money for an even remotely new
Audi.
