OK, no more element, if I can sell my allroad, I'll get a 20th anniversary GTI...

Re: .. I got my wife one of these:
If I got my wife a Kia, I'd NEVER see the inside of the allroad again! As it was, I had to get rid of my GMC pickup and get a BMW 528i just so we'd start swapping cars again! HA!

I love my AR don't get me wrong... but the wobble, squeeky brakes and DBW lag with the
allroad did and does bother me for the amount of money. Does this 3rd grocery getter's brakes squeek?.. no. wobble?... no. pedal lag?... thank god no.
audi people are like trekkes... Loyal to the end even if there are bad episodes...
that is all. hehe

as someone said in this forum before, problems in cars increase with complexity...
and technical gadgets. The best bet to get no wobble, no squeaky brake or dbw lag is a barebone Honda.
My friends complain about their BMWs all the time for reliability issues, but will they give up their bimmers for a Honda just for reliability? I don't think so. Even Ferrari and Porsche have their share of problems, but so many people still desire them. There's just something that these cars have that is beyond reliability concern.

the stepbars were 900 alone. luxury package tow, load level suspension.. etc. adds up.
on top of the good ol' uncle sam that has to get it's bite. Addung option packages add up and it gets $$$$$!
