Default Car Magazine B8 review.

Some great pictures and a review of the new A4 in Car Magazine. Picked up a copy this week in Amsterdam, and found it online...

I have to admit, with the larger wheels the white car looks quite good!

Default Interesting, a major auto publication compares the Audi 3.2 to the BMW 330i

...in performance AND price. That contradicts those who say the Audi 3.2 is meant to compete against the BMW 328i (325i nomenclature in the UK).

CAR Magazine: The A4 3.2 SE quattro has performance that, on paper, is virtually identical to BMW's 330i SE and there's only a few pounds in the price.

Default No silly, your mental block was comparing the 3.2 with the 335...

btw, the last time I checked, the 330i didn't have awd. I'll still take the 3.2 over the 330i any day....especially in the snow some of you got over the weekend!

fyi: major car rags have nothing to do with auto manufacturer's market strategies. The other day, I saw Top Gear compare a Porsche Cayenne against a skydiver....the skydiver won (with much less hp)

Default Disagree - BMW is still on the dark side. Seen the rear of a white X3? You'll understand.

Default so I guess that would be the dark side of the dark side? ;)
