@ Hans: "Audi depends on reliability and prestige"
And it works, prestige is the least important quality of a car, reliability is the most important quality. :)

you do not understand :D

Audi also have 3.0 with 333 PS. This 3.0 272 PS is just detunded :)
Audi can make 420 Ps 3.0 TFSI but for what?! If Audi have 4.0 V8 420 PS :D

If BMW have 2.0 R4 245 PS Audi have 3.0 V6 272 PS :)

As I wrote, Audi depends on reliability and prestige :)

3.0 V6 272 PS is better than 2.0 R4 245 Ps.

272hp from an na 3.0l isnt that impressive either though. Its good, but a bit small and weak compared to their competitors.

I know they are capable of good power, but I would like to see them do it. :)

Because they dont, I will be considering a 328i or an ats turbo but not an a4 in a couple months.

The a4 is just outmatched in the power department.

Because Audi have 3.0 V6s to make 272 PS.:)
Audi also ensures more reliability.
Audi can make 600 PS 1.5 R3 but reliability and prestige are also important for Audi.
2 months ago
Oh it is.

I was thinking for their run of the mill a4 and such.

Gm and ford for example make 250hp + in their smaller 2.0t cars

@Apathy

300 PS is not enough for 2.0 l engine? :D

Disrespectful and foul language will not be tolerated.

You can show your disdain for a car or a manufacturer without being rude.

For example: I dislike some current Audis for a few reasons.

1) their 2.0t is underpowered compared to its rivals

2) the v6s are impossible to work on

3) the 2.0t had a couple critical issues that audi was aware of but didnt fix for their customers. The cam follower can degrade and then the high pressure fuel pump literallyeats the intake cams lobes!!! Worst of all, audi did nothing about it.

Lets please try to have mature and intelligent conversations and debates! :)

@ zelandrew: Oh my freaking gosh!, what cave did you grow up in, you ignorant pathetic troll?! The problem is that some people hate Audi drivers because they're rich and the haters are jealous, many people, you included only hate Audis because you can't afford one. Audis are among the finest cars on the road, their build quality and reliability are excellent, and most Audis are pretty fast. You might want to do some research before posting another retarded comment like that.

You have a greater prestige with Audi? LOLOLOL...What?

Driving a type of car doesnt make anyone more prestiges then the nex person, thats just incredibly retarded. And they respect you because your rich? Hmm its usually the other way round...

If your looking for that, your gonna have to go somewhere else.

I Love the R8 V10, its a great car and great looking in and out.

But honestly, Who calls a 100k Corvette Cheap? Trolls are getting more and more, soon they may take over if nothing is done...

If I have to choose best supercar, I will choose Audi R8. Looks amazing and that's most important. If you show up in Audi, you have a greater prestige, people will respect you because you're rich. Not like those ugly, plastic and shabby new corvettes for poor losers. Yuck...

@ Mental: Mostly what we have around here are Ford F-150, F-250, F-350, Ranger, Chevrolet Silverado, 1500, 2500, and 3500 HD, Colorado, S-10, GMC Sierra, 1500, 2500, 3500 HD, Canyon, Sonoma, Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, 3500, and Dakota (Like Mine), Toyota Tundra, and Tacoma, and Nissan Titan and Frontier, Trucks like that are rare here, then again, so are city slickers, LOL, I do see quite a few Ford F-150 SVT Lightnings and Raptors.

"heck, many city slickers in America think all pick-up truck drivers are farmers, hillbillies, or white trash."

Shaggy, I think if they were shown a driver of Shelby Raptor, or Ram SRT10, or HSV Maloo, they would quickly change their mind, and momently would fall in a deep envy. LOL

Believe it or not people like that actually do exist. I've met a couple. Its like their is zero filter between their brain and mouth and their brain is incapable of anything remotely intelligent.

@ Shaggy: I just meet an Idol girl and when she saw my Galaxie, she said: "Is that your grandma's car?" so I replied: "No that's mine." She response: "You sure? It's strange because most of the boy drive great tuner cars instead this one." and I replied: "At least i got Shelby Cobra's engine under the hood so it can smoke any tuner in no time."

Where do you people come from?

Do you talk like this to people in person?

Somehow I doubt it.

Audis are so cute. I consider myself as race car driver, so I have a lot more cash than you. Audi TT is perfect sports car, and so do Audi R8, which is most adorable supercar. And you're all poor.

@ Super8: I wouldn't mind riding with a girl who drives a Miata, most women who drive Miatas are very feminine and attractive, 8D but there is an older woman at work who drives a tuned Miata and she looks a lot like that crazy woman from Monster. Another girl who used to work with me drove a slightly tuned 1st gen Miata, attractive, too.

@ Super8: If I were a racer and someone showed up in an Audi R8 V10 or Nissan GTR, I'd probably just call it a night, quit while I'm ahead and go home unless I was driving a Corvette ZR1, SRT Viper, Ferrari F12, Lamborghini Aventador, or Aston Martin One-77. ;)
