Default Quattro in LA

I have not had alot of opportunity to drive my car in the rain before. It has been drizzling all day. Although the car really sticks in turns and grabs under hard acceleration when it is time to stop, watch out. It seems as though the ABS kicks in very early on even moderate braking. I guess it is something folks are used to in the rest of the world.

Really? I didn't feel my ABS kick in once this morning, and I was driving pretty "spiritedly".

Default Yeah we drove down to Oceanside, hit around 110mph on the 5, also a lot of PCH fun.

No braking problems at all. Fun in the rainy conditions though for sure. Long live Quattro!!
