Re: A4tq wins Car & Driver test




We all also know that the tiny, noisy, torque steering, bland styling,
and non AWD integra is for a different class of buyers. No one in the
world says, "Whattaya think, Honey? The Quattro or the GS-R?". Two
totally different classes(although at well over a hugely overpriced
$21,000 US, it's nearly in the same price class). In other words, Acura
sales won't be dipping into Audi sales.
