No because of exactly this stuff--the attitude and the rigidity and the... Read the prior replies. You aren't worth my time honestly, set in your ways and opinions and I guess know better than the factory and its engineers. I like the vehicles, but stuff like this is a turn off to the brand. Have seen this general approach called out on this board in past too. Stand by what I said meantime.

Move on. ...But you won't... and other readers can then see how it plays for themselves.

So going by the logic of the Audi engineers know best then that means that 60 seconds after engine light off that I should go full revs on my W12 because I have full tach right?

Or does this just mean the W12 is THAT much better than the 4.0?


Literally left my driveway and only half way though the subdivision
