RE: New A4Q

[Peter Henriksen <peterhe@microsoft.com>]

I'd get what I wanted in the 1.8t quattro with a sports package: a very
tweakable engine with a bulletproof drivetrain (EDL, anyone?), a lighter
car than the V6, better seats and all the features I'd want *on that
car*. I like the V6 as well, but the reason I'd buy an A4 would be to
get a smaller, sporty car than the Legend GS or 200qw we have now and
the 1.8t just fills that better.
