Audis' roadholding is crap.
-
yeah, got 4wd,fat tyres, turbo engines,tiptronic,dsg.
but ultimately, it has a lot of weight in the nose, not good for changing directions. -
come here and post as many controversial and unsubstantiated arguments as you like! heehee!

i honestly hope u have driven one before 2 make dat comment
can't give an objective opinion coz i haven't had any personal experience driving audis, but i can tell u dat if u think a quattro's handling sucks, there're tons of other continental cars with worse handling running around in comparison.

that's y i said controversial mah. and the unsubstantiated part too .. haha!!!Originally posted by tailslide:i honestly hope u have driven one before 2 make dat comment

but i must say, lots of reviews have been good. aout audis. i guess the awd overcomes the weighty nose weakness very well. -
its mostly the bigger engine variants that have that nose-led steering. for me.. if i were to get an audi in sg.. it would prolly be a middle engine, non quattro version...

Dunno, never drifted in one.

The only DSG Audi I know that is already running on the road is the 3.2L Audi TT, and that is not turbo engine. And this car is very rare in Singapore.Originally posted by dryver:yeah, got 4wd,fat tyres, turbo engines,tiptronic,dsg.

The other DSG engine that PA is bringing in is the 2.0T FSI with DSG, and they are not quattro.
For turbo engine, there are only the 1.8T and the 2.0T FSI, and they are mostly multitronic and FWD.
So which model of audi did you test drive? -
all i can say is this W/o audi Evos,Skylines,Rexes and all the 4wd road cars won't exist

yes thats y i say Quattro is the Best innovation that automotive has ever had....I never once doubt that Audis have bad roadholding...I've read reviews from top gear and jeremy clarkson kinda like audis cos of their Quattro 4wd system...like when they compared the E55 to the jag S-type-R and the audi RS6.....

the audi Sport Quattro...the greatest rally car ever in the world IMHO....I think many of u would agree with that...not the best but greatest cos of how it has shaped cars and WRC today....Originally posted by Gazelle:Remember all the world rally championship that audi won in the 80s? -
Sat in the RS6 when I was in UK, all I can say is that the power and the sound of the V8 is awesome. No horse run!!Originally posted by AE86tofu:yes thats y i say Quattro is the Best innovation that automotive has ever had....I never once doubt that Audis have bad roadholding...I've read reviews from top gear and jeremy clarkson kinda like audis cos of their Quattro 4wd system...like when they compared the E55 to the jag S-type-R and the audi RS6.....
