not even close... Posted by Scott Paterson [Email] (#13) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Scott Paterson) on Wed, 15 Jun 2005 03:01:19 In Reply to: Re: 2006 changes? No free maintenance??

I test drove an S40, A4 1.8, 9-3 Linear, Arc, and Vector, and BMW 325i and Mercedes C240... The worst car by far was the S40. It was awful. The interior was by far the worst with almost no detail and the car felt like the wheels were under the driver's seat = very little response. It was not a sports sedan and under hard acceleration would whine.. it might have been faster than the Audi 1.8 underpowered engine, but at least the Audi accelerated without sounding like it was going to break in half. The BMW and Mercedes handled like I thought they should... of them all, the Audi was the most competitive although way less powerful than even the Linear...
Test drives are so revealing,
