Comfort and being queen of the road in big limo :-) I guess, you can say it about any car from this segment.

Define comfort. That's a very general term.

Extreme interior luxury. Understated good looks. Speed and quickness from the 4.0 V8 AWD and butter smoothness.

That it’s not a spineless 2.0 A6!, massage seats, killer looks, super high quality interior, blowing away new Mustangs and basically any Corvette. From a dead stop this car accelerates to 60mph in 3.565 seconds! The acceleration from 65-100 is ferocious! All around excellent car made so much better with APR tune on the 4.0 twin turbo.
