I would take my quick audi that handles like all hell whilest keeping the people in the car super comfy over a fast crappy honda any day. Race in the twisties, then see how bummed you are(assuming you have quattro).

Yes Its a Quattro.

Seriously, laughable indeed. New accord, 270hp. New Altima, 270hp. New model Eclipse (oh god its ugly), 260hp. Civic Si, 200 hp.

New cars are putting out nice numbers. Granted, they still suck.

Go audi.

When I went around looking for a car, I went to nissan and no one even looked at me, nevermind talked to me. Mazda, I asked them for a hardcopy brochure on their cars, they told me to go look online which wasnt what I asked for. Toyota sucks. Honda Sucks. I didnt want to get a Saab because of the GM frame. It seemed like everywhere I went no one took me seriously. So instead of buying new, I just picked something used so that I could save a few bucks and deal with someone who wants to talk to me. Im happy with my choice in Audi because it has everything ive ever wanted in a car. Might be a little slow right now but anythings better than my old suzuki sidekick.

what do you want ?

when you are giving your car a little kick in the ***, like spirited driving or racing pos cars, keep the rpm's above 3k

and shift right after 5k (thats where cars hits peak power, and before the turbo becomes inneficent)

as far as launches... do not go above 3-4 k on stock clutch.. you will do nothing more then make is slip and decrease its life
as far as chips... you have a b6, so i would probably go apr 1+
Thanks for the guide.

I've noticed in the week that I've owned my A4 so far, that it's a slug off the line but on the freeway its a quick lil bastard. I do plan on chipping it within the next month or two though.

Thats accurate for me as well, highway the cars great. And the mileage is not too shabby at all!
