It's a 4X4 quarterly put out by the folks who publish R&T. It was a pleasant surprise to find it tucked in among reviews about Grand Cherokees Vitaras.

Thanks for sticking it to your fellow Iranian friend or Arab ( I am guessing you are Iranian?). How did I ever insult you Hassan? Please have some class and do not insult me without provication.<p>Sincerely,<p>Alex Hafez B.

Good to see a couple of others that hang out on both boards. While I have a 328i on order my wife and I are already the proud owners of a Black/Ecru A4 2.8QTS. <p>Michael Ivy

Michael,<p>Since I know in 1998 Audi only offered ecru with the royal blue dash and door trim, I was wondering if this is the interior combo that you have. It just seems like the blue would not go too well with a black exterior. On the other hand, the new ecru/onyx Advance interior for 1999 seems perfect on a black car. Wait, your car might be a pre-Atmospheres A4, which had black dash. Since you mentioned QTS (T is for tiptronic, right?), it must be a 1998 30v model, not a 1998.5 model. Correct?<p> By the way, how would you rate the performance of your 2.8Q (power, acceleration) against the 328i's which you test drove? Was the 328i much quicker? Are you getting an automatic 328i? sorry for the numerous questions.
