Default Rant about AWD not getting credit in the sport sedan topic......

I have seen a few articles that included the 330i manual, Mercedes C350 manual and IS 350 automatic, and they say that a true sports sedan must have rear wheel drive..... But they dont think a true sports sedan MUST have a manual transmission??? What the hell are they smoking?? Just really pisses me off, The A4/S4 is a much better sedan than the IS could hope to be, and it offers a manual trans. I get so mad at these dumb magazines........I have reduced my reading materials to Car and Driver, and Autoweek. They seem to suck less than the others. Sorry, pointless thread I know, but i had to get it out...

Default Harsh words for a Christian. ;)

Personally i don't care what those trash mags say or how they classify my car. Don't care if they call it a sports car, sports sedan, mommy car, grocery getter.... I like it and that's all that matters.

Default Agreed, who cares what the automotive journalists say in those magazines

Then you could look at Clarkson complaining about flappy paddles in a sports car

Oh, I know, it doesnt reduce the amount that I love my car, and as I stated, I dont carry much weight with the magazines, just something to pass some time. Just urks me a little. In fact, it is because of those magazines that I love my car even more.
