I'm sick and tired of BMW driver's view of VW/Audi as the "other" German car company.

A lot of dubbers would much rather own an E30 M3 than their current car. But no BMW owner will ever admit the legacy of any of the Dubaudi group cars. Ever.

It comes down to a superiority complex.

Once it comes out, BMW drivers on the roads will bow to an AWE chipped S5, or stock one for that matter. The same way they bow to the older S4.

IMHO, RWD is the superior drivetrain. But AWD is a great compromise.

And to those saying BMW copying Audi............Audi was using turbos in the A4, S4, etc.......... long before BMW ever did for the 335.
You signed up just to respond to this and put in the good word for Audi? You should be speaking of your own inferiority complex rather than bmw owners' superiority complex then!

Also, why do you think many neutral professional reviewers seem to repeatedly arrive at the conclusion that BMWs handle better than Audis on dry paved roads?
