Good job we can choose what we buy eh! If you dont mind carrying around an extra 90kg it doesnt matter! And if thats all that puts you off, choose a non quattro. No point arguing over this, everyone has different points/opinions and experiences.
that's exactly my point. you've clearly fallen on one side of the line, and there's nothing wrong with that. you've accepted the limitations of your choice and embraced the rewards. i've fallen on the other side, and i've done the same with my choice. my statement above directed at the thread's creator in regards to him not having the quattro he thought he had shouldn't be viewed as an outright disaster because it has its advantages. and in my opinion is the better of the two. you're entitled to disagree with that, and i welcome you to do so.
