orin gave me a ride in his car and i was quite impressed at how
smooth the 20V four was.. yes, i have driven many 4 bangers as well.

i test drove the 30V A4 and did not like the disharmonious sounds
coming out which i'm guessing to be the variable valve timing
mechanism.. i much prefer the 12V and the VR6..

go figure!
