It's all on what you want. Ihave been a fan of quattro for ever since I was a kid. I never rode in an Audi before I got mine. Never even knew what they handled like, never knew anyone with one. I've driven FWD and RWD for as long as I can remimber then came quattro every car I have driven after it has been lacking something maybe its the fact there is a bend I tried with normal cars at 90 they would slip then my Audi 3.0 quattro 6spd which I still havnt dared to push the limits on "120" or slide still plunty of pull.
It's all on what you want. I like to drive, I love twisty roads and snow its a bad combo but I've never secound guested the quattro system. I travel in the mountions alot and love it. When I'm in the city I find very little use for it and a FWD serves me best 21mpg tells me that lol.
Is it worth it? = HELL YES

everybody is right, but check this out: stock audi dont have much power, but you have quattro atleast you can take of faster than most of the other cars(raced my unchiped b6 and lost to a corvett by .3 second)
plus if you turn off ESP you can through your car side ways when it rains.
GO QUATTRO
What kind of corvette did you lose to by .3 seconds? Was it the first 10 feet? 1/4 mileORIGINAL: BOPOH

I'm considering a 2008 A4 2.0T; definitely manual, andI'mleaning toward the Quattro based on what folks say...
Comparingspecs, 0-60 acceleration for the Quattro is only 0.2 sec slower that the FWD's.
What concerns me a bit is the fact that the Quattro's fuel tank is over 10% smaller than the FWD's. On the other had,the Quattro's highway gas mileage is about 10%higher(why would that be?).
Anyone have any concerns regarding the Quattro's cruising range?

Buddy, dont be crunching all those damn #'s... 10% + or - isnt going to make a difference...
Audi minus QUATTRO = every other car
Audi WITH quattro > every other car
quattro is what made audi famous, it is what every other company tries to duplicate with their AWD, its what got audi banned from rally racing... audi = quattro

quattro is worth every penny, i would never go back. however i live in IL not socal, and it snows here. dont forget you will loose about 3MPG with quattro, maybe more in cali traffic.
