thanks for that preview link...looks like a potential winner for audi if it is as powerful as they say it is. Coming from the TT and A6, I know my audi and while they are nice to look at, they are underpowered cars (unless you shell out big $$) and not as connected to the driver as Bimmers are.

there have been a couple of reviews in the UK. both say it's good but that it's more expensive, less practical & not as good to drive as the 335i

I like the car a lot and its nice to have competition.
