Audi vs. BMW

[Ralph Poplawsky <rlpplsky@ix.netcom.com>]

You Quattro heads will like this.  

I had a meeting today with a guy from S. Carolina who definitely has the
means to drive anything he wants.  When he saw my car he said "I just sold
my Quattro".  I said, "Why did you do that?"  His response, "It was old."
So, I asked him what he got to replace it and he somewhat apologetically
told me that he likes a stick shift and since you can't get that in the
Quattro any more (I guess he means the A8) he got a new BMW 540i 6-speed.
He is also on the list for a new M-5 when they arrive.  I said,"WOW, what a
cool car!"

Now, the good part - his response.

"Yeah, but it sure doesn't drive and handle like a Quattro"

Ya Gotta Luv It !
