i have never driven a b7 so can't comment on the feel or performance. however, on style i think they took a step back. something about the front end, i think the bumper looks cut off or something. i prefer the b6, that is probably my favorite looking, then the b5.
technically, i still can't figure out why Audi only offers Front trac as an alternative to quattro. why don't they make a rear wheel drive version?



Cause Audi is about AWD , not RWD.
the drive train topic obviously isn't b7 specific, so maybe i shouldn't even bring it up here it was just something i was thinking of in general.
however i do realise Audi is about AWD, that's the main reason i bought one. i was only wondering why Audi makes a FronTrac as the only alternative. i personally would prefer RWD if i couldn't get AWD.

Because Audi is VW , and VW is FWD .
