However, unless it is icy or snowing the quattro isnt much use, and down to the way the system works on the S3 it makes them understeer BIG TIME.
Bmw handling is more enjoyable and they feel more balanced.
I have owned 4 performance audis now and i can honestly say i will never go back.

They are reasonably quick standard but another 60bhp doesn't put it into that high a performance class.
It isn't a real quattro system either.
