2007 Audi A4. Loved it 'til I knew what a real car was, lol. Only makes 200hp, pathetic considering its turbo charged. Though I had a great lease, the car always had issues. Electrical problems about a month after leaving the dealership (car was lease brand new of course). Had a recall on some kind of valve that made the car shake like a fricking train at stoplights, and the interior started to fall apart a bit. But man are those stock pirelli p6's sweet...Anyways all in all I'd say the 8 is a much superior automobile though it requires extra attention, just makes it more fun to own IMO.

Before I got my 8 on saturday, I was driving my parents' 2007 saturn vue. I am thrilled to have a car that actually has some power, and I'm proud to say its all mine.

i loved it. i wish i didn't have to trade it in, but i just couldn't afford it anymore after i moved from Cali.

the thing i liked most was being able to put the back window down and all the other windows and sunroof. that thing got some airflow going through there.
