Well, with the reports from other listers on this car, I would guess
the middle of your three options.  I am sure you have a good excuse,
though, like you have been too busy driving your car to notice, right??

BTW, I saw the A4 30v with sport package at Charles Maund Audi on 
Saturday.  I didn't realize it was a 30v, but as I was walking by I
thought it looked more agressive than the A4 sitting next to it, and
it took me a second to realize the reason why.  I hurried on over to
it and checked it over.  It looks _very_ nice, and probably goes like
a banshee with that 190hp engine, too.  The aluminum interior trim
was an interesting touch, I guess it looks nice.  

After driving my father's A4 1.8tqsm for 3 days while home for my
brother's high school graduation, I can only say that the car is superb.
Loads of power, great handling, smooth and refined, with no rough
edges.  I still like the roughness of my Coupe...it gives me a vicarious
thrill, but the power and capability of the A4 has me drooling.  And
goodness, those sport seats are incredible!  Eventually, I'll get my
greedy little hands on one, and it'll be mine, all mine!!!  <evil cackling>
