Nothing like power at all 4 corners. I live in LA and think Quatrro is a must.

Default Another good case for FWD (it has its place)

Default Hehe, that's like saying there's no place for a 4-banger in a "premium sedan."

There's more than one way to skin a cat!

Default +2. That is an old, out-dated way of thinking. Much has changed over the last twenty years.

Automatics have made incredible strides with manual shifting, efficiency, and performance.
As I have mentioned, the average buyer is not an enthusiast and doesn't care which wheels drive the car.

Default Re: well.... not faster 0-60, handling depends, but agree on cost, mileage

agree 100%.

would get a RWD car ahead of a FWD car, though.

Spending this kind of money on a FWD car is crazy if you like performance driving. In my opinion, only, of course.

I have an 09 CVT and it drives nice. If I want to feel the power of the car I use S or Multitronic mode and the car flies. The CVT has 8 shift points programmed. In reality a CVT has no shift points but the engineers progammed 8 into the paddle shifter. It is a blast to drive.
