This sounds right, my prior car was a 328i (RWD) with Sportpkg. Between the suspension, runflats and heavy steering at low speeds, my wife and i could not live with it day to day..Ontop of that, the non turbo, low torque 6 at low RPM and horrible GM automatic made it the most disappointing car I ever owned. The 335xi sport is a totally different experience and in my opinion, the best 3 series to get.

Sounds as if Audi have gotten it right with the chassie tuninng of the A4, even with Sport on the "nice" NJ roads. I tried the non-sport and it was not at all right for me (fishy steering) and not as defined as what I am seeking.

If anyone knows an NJ dealer with a demo, please keep posting.
