Re: If it WASN'T a Quattro - would you buy one?

Your message reminded me that I *HAVE* made the comparison lately.  I had
the Audi in the shop for what I THOUGHT was going to be an extended visit,
but the Stan Olsen service people were SO incompetant, they didn't even
SAY they had done all the work I had requested.  Anyway, I rented a Nissan
Maxima for the day.  It was a nice car, but there was one thing that really
made me miss my 6 year old Audi...

The conditions were dry.  As I stepped on the accelerator a slight bit, it
downshifted and I nearly lept over a quarter-lane to the right.  Something
I was used to on my Subary FWD, but had forgotten about since driving the
Audi.  Sure you learn to compensate for it, but I'm much happier not
having to.
