RE: New 2.0T Quattro ranked 1st in AWD Sports Sedan camparo.
ORIGINAL: Yuikio That's odd, because SPEED, R&T's bastard child tuner magazine, gave the B7 S-line a big "Meh" in its AWD sport sedan shootout. They compared a 2.0T quattro tip (lame) S-line to the Subaru Legacy GT Spec B and the Mazdaspeed 6, gave 1st to the Mazda, 2nd to the Subie, and distant last to the Audi. Overall, 190.7 points out of 200 to the Mazda, 189.2 to the Subie, and 167.9 to the Audi. Said it was slow, heavy, and understeered piggishly. My only explanation is that since SPEED is focused on pure performance they were judging the cars sheerly on performance numbers, where the Audi obviously comes in last. I think the R&T team took into account the entire package, including build, fit and finish, equipment, and they mentioned the intangible "feeling" of the Audi more. The best mags are Evo, Car, and Top Gear. But they are all UK publications and I only subscribe to Evo which is the best enthusiast publication in the world IMHO. |

Have you gotten the new EVO with the RS4 features? Can't wait to read it. They did at least two or three stories with the RS4, which is a sure sign they like it and wanted excuses to drive it.

Besides, a subscription is like $180 a year, and for the best car enthusiast magazine in publication, $10 a month at newsstands is quite alright with me. |

So I take it that you're a fan? :) I haven't looked at it much over the years. I'll give it another look to see if I can agree with your assessment. I gotta say that I haven't noticed any great writing in there yet. But hey, it's a car mag.
