too big for my needs and no manual transmission. 'nuf said.

It's interesting how much loathing is heaped on the X3. I've been an Audi fan and driver for years (check out the member ID on here) and I love my X3. It fits my needs perfectly: road trips and the ability to get to my favorite trailheads here in the Pacific Northwest.

Yea, because those Audi "professionals" have a flawless track record in product planning... - JoeO 2008-04-20 08:11:31 (167 views)

You are right the Q7 is selling better than Audi planned! - G R8 White 2008-04-20 08:23:11 (199 views)

It's easy to beat a forecast when you aim low. - JoeO 2008-04-20 22:15:06 (110 views)

Actually no, orignial forecast was 30K units... 20K Q7s were sold last year. This year down >30% - B6S4 2008-04-20 18:16:14 (86 views)

The whole auto industry is significantly down right now - 1994 levels and heading South. - Quattrings 2008-04-20 18:53:43 (95 views)

It's "nice" but it could have been so much more. Features are very good though and it beats ugly X3 - Quattrings 2008-04-20 07:02:09 (161 views)

the X6 is significantly more expensive than the Q5, and unsuitable for adults in the rear seat - Rocky-in-Connecticut 2008-04-20 11:35:51 (118 views)

The X6 reminds me more of the Murano's and Infiniti FX's - Quattrings 2008-04-20 16:18:18 (103 views)

^agree with him. However, if Audi just gives us the 2.0T with DSG, it will sell very well. And - AutoUnionQ7 2008-04-20 07:49:50 (133 views)

Yep sure hurt the A3 sales not having the 2.0 the first year... - Hugh Jardon 2008-04-19 23:22:13 (131 views)
