chicagoA6

I really like Dan Neil's reviews in the Saturday WSJ. Couple years ago his review of the 911 Turbo was one of the best reviews I've ever read.

For the A7 let's just say he was impressed...

Thanks for this. I hadn't read anything by Dan Neil before — what a great writer.

I thought this was an interesting line:

"the A7 isn't the quickest car in its class—the V8-powered Mercedes has three-tenths of a second on it—but the Audi is so unstrained, so willing, it actually feels faster than it is.”

He's spot on about the car being so unstrained and willing, but I have the opposite sensation: I've had my A7 for two weeks now, and find that I am always going about 10mph faster than I think I am (a recipe for lots of tickets).
