Liking the looks of the new A3. Haven't driven one yet though. All the reviews of the DSG make it sound like it'd be a good commuter (meaning fun when you want it to be, but automatic for bumper-to-bumper).
Worried about the Audi factor though. All the ones I've driven have been lifeless cars. Too heavy, and not that much feedback.
The 3.2 sline sounded like a nice upgrade to the 2.0, until I saw it added nearly 600 freaking pounds.. Anyone driven the 2 or 4 wheel DSG 2.0 version?
Don't you post over on he NTAG forum? I'm sure they can give you good feedback...
I have, although I'm not a fan of most audi's, including the S4. Was thinking I'd get more of an unbiased opinion here..
I'd rather have a new GTI. Same DSG drivetrain, same basic chassis, similar interior space, over $10k cheaper, and you get those ultra-cool plaid seats. :cool:
Well, the A3 was one of two "finalists" to replace my S4 Avant last year. At the end of the day, I just couldn't justify the cost of the A3. I think it's a damn fine car, but 10% overpriced.

I'd run, far, far away, from any VWAG product... but then again, I'm biased.
'Zat where the Passat went?
Yup... I got real tired of it sucking money out of my wallet.Quote:
