Default Hard to believe Europe has a motor even *less* powerful than the 3.2

If you think 265 HP sucks, how about 95 fewer HP??? That combo must be a real dog.

Or enjoy affording what you want to drive instead of being forced to drive a bmw :-P

Default or force to drive an underpowered car to be different... =P

The reason i loved audi was the fact that many people didn't drive it. The gap between how many bmw on the road and audi are close pretty fast. I really didn't mind the power 6-7 years ago because the power difference between bmw and audi wasn't that significant.

Ever since the release of the 335, bmw just left audi behind in the performance race.

I was commenting on 06A8's post, not specifically yours.
