If I'm willing to accept more capable cars require more money to run and are more complex, is Audi a good choice?

Porsche minimum for a vag product
>>29052807Now lets make the track rainy and see what happens
if you want the v8 just get an a6 or a8 so the engine actually fits in the engine bay
Superior German engeering
>>29052818Wrenchlet ngl>>29052816I do like A8s but I want a coupe
>>29052820>i need this particular shapeur dumjust try sitting in and driving a used a8
>>29052826>nooo you cant like something in particular you have to neeeeeed itk
>>29052814"We're closing the track down due to unsafe amounts of standing rain!"
>>29052804no, because Audi is not more capable than its competitors but still has greater maintenance complexity burdensonly reason to pick Audi is if you wanted a rs7 avant or a s8
>>29052863Its competitors are uggo Its also an order of magnitude less complicated than the 4.0tt
>>29052866vws are boring as fuck, and gay-wheel drive is useless
>>2905288540:60 rear bias isnt fwd according to most definitions im aware ofbmw owners are also really pretentious despite their plastic coolant systems, wastegate rattles and rod bearings
>>29052885>V8 that revs like a k20 is boring In what universe?
>>29052814The track being rainy would make 95% of Audis understeer even more. The commoner's Quattro system is mostly for traction from a stop, not rotating the car into corners.You've got to pay big for the real Quattro system. And even with good, real AWD, cars tend to understeer unless you're flicking the car just right unless there's a big rear torque split.
>>29052898The RS5 in op pic is a "real" quattro systemIf i was looking for a track car id be looking for something else, but I also enjoy myself well below the limit of grip so burger ring compilations mean less than nothing
>>29052896Mogged by the UDM
>>29052886I didn’t say fag-wheel drive, i said gAy-wheel drivevws are gay as fuck lol>>29052896When it’s paired with faggy gay-wheel drive lol
>>29052910someone translate?
>>29052901>The RS5 in op pic is a "real" quattro systemI know.But from my view, you could have been a complete n00b who just got a pic of a random hot Audi from google images and thought AWD inherently was magic cornering sauce.Apparently you claim to not be such a noob, but I had no way of knowing that.
>>29052917REAL Enthusiast Cars are REAL-wheel drive
>>29052930ValidThats one thing I kind of like about audis. They largely escape the boyracer associations and are largely ignored by normies. Unless you are a "knower," an S or RS badged audi is nothing special
>>29052934You're like the children in /vr/ who have to make every thread about their brand. "A thread about a PSX game - I'd better talk about Sega!"
>>29052935Uhh vws are boyracelet as fuck THOUGHJust look at how ricey the rs3 and golf rs areThe r in both stands for rice>>29052936What brand?I don’t have a brand lol
>>29052934Im not aware of any cars that have non corporeal wheels
>>29052938The golf R looks pretty pedestrian as does the RS3. But im not talking about either of those so im not sure what they have to do with this
>>29052935I learned to drive in a TT 225 Quattro 6-spd and drove a 6-spd V8 S4 for a few k miles.They're good solid (unreliable and overly-expensive) luxury cars, and they have more sedate quiet styling, but I'd never consider one myself even if I were wealthy. I'm okay with talking about them though.
>>29052940Kek those cars are pretty much the definition of boyraceletAnd they look like mini-minivans which is so fucking gay already
>>29052818
>>29052944Audi is the only member of the big german 3 from which i have not owned a car, but ive also owned cars from VW, Toyota, Nissan, ford, Hyundai and GM, over a dozen cars over a 30 year range.Im looking at audis at this point because the only thing I can even fault them for is being complex/maintenance intensive. I like everything else about them, which is something I cant say about any other car ive parked or wanted to park in my garage. Im sure financial destitutuon is in my future but I cant manage to talk myself out of a late RS5.
>>29052885>>29052948Well are they boring or are they boyracer cars? I honestly wouldnt even be bothered by your shitposting style and cancerous double spacing if you could at least be consistent
>>29052951Sounds like you know what you want. The plus side is it'll probably hold value well, being an RS Audi, so if you decide a year or two later to switch, you should be able to recoup most of your money.
>>29052955If >>29052951 is you as well, you literally wouldn’t get itYou’ve only owned boring cars
>>29052958I dont outsource my opinions to ai chatbots >>29052957Here’s hoping
>>29052960I’m stating facts, not opinions
>>29052963Corvettes bore me plus torque tube autismIm not willing to put up with that
>>29052968>this bores the vwlet kike somehow
>>29052972YeahThe interiors are shit for one And its no better than audi in the sense I still have to drop the drivetrain to do things that are trivial on other cars Im not willing to put up with that for a funny leaf spring coupe with a plastic interior and a truck engine
Just get a Giulia Q4 if you want an AWD automatic, holy shit. >handles better>looks better>more reliable>more fun>also comes with a Ferrari engined version if you have the money
>>29052977Tell them to put a v8 in it and then they can call me
>>29052974How does that make Corvettes boring lolYou just said you accepted that more capable cars require more money to runLife’s too short to drive a boring gay-wheel drive bullshit
>>29052981And putting up with the extra care and attention requires me liking the car in the first place. I dont like corvettes. GM engines are quite good for what they are, but they insist in shoving them in ugly cars. Beyond that, I dont find high revving v8s that can put their power down in all weather conditions to be boring
>>29052938>I don't have a brandYou don't even have a car.
>>29052986Kek C6s aren’t ugly THOUGHHIGH-revving V8s aren’t boringThe faggy gay-wheel drive that you can’t turn off is boring as fuck THOUGH
>>29052989I own 5 cars THOUGH
>>29052993I dont need to mechanically abuse my cars to get fun out of them. Maybe thats the difference.
>>29052995That isn’t mechanically abusing the cars THOUGH
>>29052999You should consult your ai chatbot like you did here >>29052958 and see what it says
>>29053002You should be less of a pussy lol
>>29053006Ah manIt said drifting and burnouts is mechanical abuse didnt it
>>29052986>>29052981It’s just a busrider jeet day-dreaming about getting girls because “muh v8 luxury barge”. Just ignore and move on.
>>29053009They’re pussy slowfaglet boyracelets; that’s why I trust them to know what boyracelet cars are in the first place
>>29053009I take it you're not currently a regular here. He's the resident lolcow at the moment. Not worth responding to.I'm all about drifting and burnouts, probably more than he is, but this is an Audi thread, you've stated you're not looking for that sort of thing, and I respect that.If everyone did what I did and liked what I liked life would be even more dull than it already is.
>>29053010>>29053019Oh I know. Ive been a resident here since like 2012-ish, i just like to play dumb. I actually like to engage with trolls from time to time just to see how comitted to the craft they are. He's kind of boring. His double spacing is more annoying than anything he actually says.
>>29053019KEK post a car that you own that can drift or even break traction in first without cheap chink bullshits as tiresvws aren’t a good choice for a V8 Coupe because there are much Better REAL-wheel drive options, and gay-wheel drive is useless and boring as fuck
>>29053031>a car is only good if it cant put its power down!!Weird cope but ok family, go off
>>29053031I drive a stock NB miata, it wants to break traction nonstop. I've drifted at least 5 corners in the last 12 hours - long slides at big angles, I really did. 140 (more like 110) horsepower of pure 99.8% unadulterated fury!
>>29053022How am I trolling by recommending Better cars than a boring as fuck vw?You’ve been a resident /o/ poster since 2012 and only owned boring as fuck bullshits?You’re clearly the troll lol>>29053035>retarded false dichotomyFaggy sneed, but go off, queen
>>29053046I literally dont care
>>29052810Porsche is VAG too retard
>>29053045Delusions of a slowfaglet
>>29053049That’s literally what they saidWhat they meant was Porsche is the only vw product worth buying>>29053048Why’s it faster if it can’t “put its power down?”
>>29053046Ive had quite a few rwd cars, several v8s, one boosted i4, one straight 6. Limit driving/mechanical abuse is not fun when im the one that has to pay for fixing it. Its much easier to go rent a gokart at a local track for the cost of lunch, pull higher Gs than any road car, and beat the shit out of their equipment instead.
>>29053050Driving the car says otherwise. It's ridiculous how easy it is to break traction without even going WOT. It's crazy, the rear will snake left and right just starting from a stop with moderate throttle. Same as my NA was.Shit, it will swing the rear out if you tap the brake on one of those curved on-ramps. I use racing tires on tracks and yeah it grips well. But on "high-performance" all-seasons? It constantly swings the rear out, non-stop. It's literally why I like the car.
>>29053055Gokarts dont attract hotties THOUGH>>29053057Post tires>inb4 chankjank billshits
>>29053060Why would I care about attracting hotties? Im not some hormonal teenager and already have kids.
>>29053057>Shit, it will swing the rear out if you tap the brake on one of those curved on-rampsLift-off oversteer isn’t powersliding or drifting THOUGHYou’re basically just saying you have uttershitem8 tires
>>29053061Why would I care about gokarts??Those bullshits are for little children, and hot women prefer actual cars
>>29053060My current tires sure are (I think, anyway). I bought it with them, and I will enjoy them thoroughly.Look, I've had miatas 12 years. I've had everything from chink specials to hoosiers. I like drifting at low speeds, I've actually been doing it since the '00s and can nail it almost every time. That's my favorite thing about cars, so I consider putting summer tires on as ruining them. POWAHSLIDE EVERYWHERE, fuck grip. I powerslide on the way to work, I powerslide leaving the grocery store. I've only gotten 2 reckless in 20 years and never hit even a curb, seems worth.
>>29053069Attracting women via cars is completely irrelevant to me since I already have a lineage I choose my cars because I like them, not because women or drift kiddies like them
>>29053071False dichotomy>>29053072Yeah, you like faggot cars, and when a Better car is recommended, you say some nonsense like “it can’t put its power down” despite it being faster, or that C5s and C6s are ugly lol
>>29053091And yet you're still buying cars to pull women and ive already done the workIdk bud
>>29053095Can never have too many hottiesKeep saying that faster cars “can’t put their power down” despite being faster than your boring dream car kek
>>29053065>You’re basically just saying you have uttershitem8 tiresYou're goddamn right and it's a LOT of fun! I don't even have ABS.Ride into the Danger Zone every day.You know I used to have an STi on super-grippy tires. I had a miata at the same time and preferred said miata. Speed isn't as exciting as it once was to me, I just wanna sliiiiiide and cheat death again. It's really that simple, it's what I like.High speed is more dangerous, more expensive, but less fun. I wanna feel like *I* did that drift, not just the car - mashing the gas and going 170mph? I don't feel like that required skill or was interesting to do, but it was really dangerous.
>>29052820>but I want a coupeits like 3 inch shorter than the 5 door."sporty" cope at almost full size wagon lenght and wheel base lol
>>29053097450hp is plenty for street use and awd keeps it usable in all conditions. Im chillin>Can never have too many hottiesOnly homies with no hotties say this
>>29053097how many kids do you have
>>29053101And dimensions are relevant how? The Chrysler Imperial is the biggest non limo car ever made and is, you guessed it, a coupe
>>29053054delusional
>>29053099Delusions of a slowfaglet, and false dichotomyWe both know a stock turbo sti can’t do 170mph kek>>29053102>ebonics>450hp is plenty for street use and awd keeps it usable in all conditionsOnly nocars say this>>29053103Uhhh I’m talking about hot WOMEN, son
>>29053128is this what its like when you buy cars motivated by what women and children think are cool? Ill pray for you bro. It gets better
>>29053129>ebonicsWomen don’t think the cars are cool lolThey are attracted to the Men that purchase said cool cars
>>29053134Is that why I have kids with a hot woman and you dont?
What's funny is the guy who thinks women are attracted to guys that buy cools cars only has 4 20+ year old bmw.
>>29053138Post wife with car You won’t>>29053139Only my E39s are 20+ years old
>>29053128>We both know a stock turbo sti can’t do 170mph kekIt wasn't stock. Accessport 18 psi 93-94 octane tune, cobb turbo-back exhaust. I really went over 175 according to an ECU readout, multiple times. I sold the car over a decade ago. I think it's hilarious that you refuse to believe a 4-banger sedan could do it when I simply did. You think only some twin-turbo I6 or V8 could. I don't know what to tell you man. I'm much more proud of my powersliding ability than just holding the throttle for several minutes.
>>29053144Let's see one car you own and ill think about itShes and the car i owned at the time has been posted on this board before, im not doing it again.
>>29053144Post hot women with your car. Not pictures you found online.
>>29052820>coupeJust get a 911
>>29053163Nah
>>29053144
>>29053154Which one?>>29053155Soon
>>29053186>Which one? Any of them
>>29053194Coupe for the Coupe threadMy E92 isn’t riced out THOUGH
>>29052804Not when W exists, unironically-Someone who owned Audis exclusively for 10 years until last year.It used to be a fairish exchange, especially if you were willing to do some of the work yourself and avoided dogshit engines like EA888 Gen2Rev1, but now it's absolutely not commensurate.The BMW M340i mogs everything Audi has and its reliability is legendary, they even put that engine in the Toyota Supra lmaoA5 is soulless shit now, especially compared to 3 series.X drive is now the superior AWD system.Just move on to BMW brother, its so much better.insha'Allah Audi will correct course in the next decade and Mercedes will stop being retarded, but at least we have BMW
>>29053229BMW* not W
>>29053224Nocar lol
UDM mogs
>>29053233>UDMUS Domestic Market does indeed mog all else
>>29053229Ill pass, but thx
Lmao the copes people come up with to pay more than a Corvette for less performance and higher maintenance costs
>>29053264Because for people who live in the real world, cars are not spec sheets on wheels
>>29052896>KLol dude it would be the coldest day in hell a bmw ever revved like a Honda you dumbass ricer, wrenchlet
>>29053231Don’t be jealous of My E92’s fake leather seats
>>29053144Not your wife Juan.
RbMRaped by Merc
>>29053333literally brown coded
>>29052950Op hereRight is literally me except for actually having the audi
>>29053229>X drive is now the superior AWD system. delusional. shit understeers like crazy. quattro on the other hand is a dream since the b9 rs4/5 (and s4/5 post ecu tweaks). even paid bmw shill misha had to admit it’s better than the m3 comp https://youtu.be/YPCIMmY90UU
>>29053336*double wishies codedftfy
>>29053348>double wishboneeat this multi link my niggle
>>29053146That’s stock turbo stillstis with stock turbos don’t go that fast and aren’t Coupes with V8s anyway
>>29053388If he was making around 450hp and absolutely wringing the shit out of 6th gear its plausible he got it up that fast
>>29053299>Car Dealer detectedSlimy little fucker.
>>29053401A stock can’t make 450hp You’d probably need to build the engine too at that point
