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.
