/\ The new ones have a button to switch the power from one side. I remember reading that in a Road and track or Car and driver magazine. The engineers made a promo or a show to showoff their new tech in the A6's or something. I'm pretty sure all new one's can have that system.

There are reasonably priced audi's?

Maybe he just wants a more luxury ride that also has a bit of sport to it. I really like some audis and I wouldnt mind having them.

I currently drive a A4 2.0T Quattro, nice smooth engine, smooth gearbox (long throws though), and awesome AWD system. The AWD makes it's presence known in the snow and rain, all in all it's a nice car for now.

Yah, but when youre on your death bed 50 years from now looking back at your life, do you want to say "I had an Audi" or "I drove a BITCHIN' CAMARO!!!"

I hope it doesn't need a new transmission at every other oil change like my Z28 did. The RX8 may not be a dragster, but at least every Tom, Dick and hairy redneck doesn't have one.

i know a place that will rebuild a camaro trans for under $200.

if you want to do a rebuild for the rx8 trans... it will cost you over $2000.
