Default Re: FYI, golf bag does fit sideway

I find that hard to believe, but I'll have to wait and see in person. Even my friend's Toyota Solara convertible can fit two full golf bags in the trunk, with the top down.

Default I think you should have testdrove it back to back with a B7

I think the complaints you had in regards to the performance always existed between an A4 and the a3

Default On the comparison with the Sonata, Peter Schreyer is the chief designer

at Hyundai, and he penned the C5 A6 while at Audi.

Hehe, that's an interesting twist of knowledge. Didn't know that.

Default This is my trunk

I have thought for years that Sonata apes B5 and B6 elements, so I definitely see it in your comparo
