Default saw the new body a4s on the 134 freeway near pasadena (in l.a.) saturday afternoon i decided...

that i really like it now. i was kinda starting to get used to it in the pictures but hadnt decided if i liked it all that much until i saw it in person. the guy was cool too we had our windows down yelling out the windows at about 60 mph. it looks much more aggressive than the B5 a4. i dont think i would trade it but for those of you considering it versus other cars in the performance/price range, i would definately get the a4. the guy told me it feels much more stable and "planted" than the current a4 (on stock suspension) and the 3.0 is a lot quicker. either way ive got mine and i dont think i would be getting a newer one for a long while. oh ya and the new blue color is absolutely gorgeous. its like a lighter version of nogaro... really really nice.

Default I hear that Queen song playing again (And another one bites the dust!)

aaaaahhhhh yessss.... another body falls off the "I hate the new A4" wagon.

The wagon's almost empty now. You've all decided to join me. I feel so evil!

What happened?

Default I've driven the new car. At first I thought I would hate the car. But it really is quite handsome

(whereas the current car is very pretty). It's much better lloking than the A6, IMHO. It looks smaller than the current car but inside it's really much larger. Finally, the engineers have really done their homework this time. The suspension is a major improvement. The car is much better ballanced.

If so, it looks a helluva lot better on the new A4, but I really think its just a better color.
