Default Possible. I would hope that...

the instructor I spoke to knew what he was talking about or wasn't lying when I asked him specifically if the cars had the sport suspension. He said 'no', but I guess he could have been pulling my chain.

Default One of the other things I liked at the event...

was the fact that you had time to sit in each one of the competitors' cars and the B8. And the instructors were pointing out things that I really never looked at when comparing these cars.

For example:

I didn't realize that BMW didn't completely finish/paint the interior of the trunk lid on the 328xi. Totally looked cheap/cheesy compared to the finish of the Audi.

I also didn't realize that the gaps on the Audi were so tight compared to the other cars. For example, the gap between the rear bumper and the body on the Audi were razor think compared to the others.

I didn't even notice that Audi doesn't put thise black plastic/rubber trim pieces on the roof to cover the roof seams, like the other cars do.

On the BMW, how stupid is that to put the electronics like the amp on the floor of the trunk? If you spill something back there, you're in big trouble.

Obviously the interiors of the other cars can't hold a candle to the Audi interior, but going from one car to the other and back makes it even more apparent.
