Billy Dagwood Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I ordinarily HATE audis. a lot. But I have to admit...I kinda like the look of this one. I wonder whether it'll come here, and, if so, whether it'll be available with a manual...? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v220/billydagwood/autos/07-2013-audi-a4-allroad-quattro.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v220/billydagwood/autos/03-2013-audi-a4-allroad-quattro.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v220/billydagwood/autos/05-2013-audi-a4-allroad-quattro.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proflatlander15 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I've always said I wouldn't buy any other car on the road other than mine. That is now false. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Marker Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Wow... I actually like that. 2011 Volvo S60T6 & 2013 Volvo XC60T6 Polestar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Dagwood Posted October 27, 2011 Author Share Posted October 27, 2011 Wow... I actually like that. I know, I was surprised too. I don't particularly like the new regular A4, or even the S4. But this one...I even like the interior. Just gimme a manual option. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v220/billydagwood/autos/12-2013-audi-a4-allroad-quattro.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Dagwood Posted October 27, 2011 Author Share Posted October 27, 2011 I've always liked a few of the audi's but this one is (very cool) The only modern audi I've liked before this one was the RS6 wagon from a few years back, and that was never a realistic option for any number of reasons. But this might actually work in the real world. I just hope they don't price it too ridiculously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tito_b0y Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 If this Allroad Avant makes it Stateside, I may have another option in a few years' time... 2006 SWP 3.0R 5EAT VDC BBQ 2008 OBP 2.5i 4EAT BBQ [RIP] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Dagwood Posted October 27, 2011 Author Share Posted October 27, 2011 If this Allroad Avant makes it Stateside, I may have another option in a few years' time... the autoblog folks seem pretty convinced it'll come over. I just hope audi brings the manual version along (which does/will exist). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doccrowley Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I like the wagons! This is a nice looking car! Hmmmm, maybe a future option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penguin Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Nice looking car, but I could do without the two tone cosmetics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueWhiteBoy Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I like it and find it quite sexy, a coworker of mine has an older Allroad 2.7 TT? and he was saying that he had to replace the suspension 3 times while it was under warranty. I guess the part that raised/lowered it kept breaking. Definitely seemed like a fun car though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Dagwood Posted October 27, 2011 Author Share Posted October 27, 2011 dunno whether this one would have the same (or a similar) air suspension setup as its A6 ancestor. Personally, I could do without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f1anatic Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Audi just refreshed their A4 line and added another 1.8 tubo engine for a combined 23 engine and tranny choices. That is too much. I desperately want an S4 and I admit I like this allroaf. It is the new high tech Subaru Outback of yester-year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and the fact the allroad has two of everything, so it's more expensive to mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I desperately want an S4 and I admit I like this allroaf. It is the new high tech Subaru Outback of yester-year. Yes it is. Way too much money tied up in developing tooling just to make them all. Although I do understand there is a 300hp diesel V6 that can be fit to this platform (A4/Allroad) I'd love to see one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I definitely like this thing. I'd prefer mono-chrome white, or at least a little tone-down of the unpainted bits. I like the interior a LOT, but I don't like the divergent center console and dash joint (like the <2005 Impreza). I prefer a smoothly flowing, continuous dash. Just seems cleaner. Those are really my only complaints. Now if I could get it with the engine out of this, that'd just be icing on the cake: http://www.audi.co.uk/new-cars/q7/q7-v12.html 490hp, 740 ft-lbs. Enough to get a 5,000lb SUV from 0-62mph in 5.5 seconds. Yes. Please.

The air ride suspension is a well-known pice of crap. Well, it's actually really nice. Until it breaks. then it costs a fortune to fix and breaks often. No thanks. Leave anything overly-fancy out of an Audi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doccrowley Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 reminds me of the air suspension I had back on my XT6! I bought a wrecked parts car for $1000 so I could harvest the brake calipers, rotors and suspension pieces after a $900 brake estimate for 2 rear calipers and rotors from Midas Muffler. Every time I put the car on jackstands to service the brakes I'd lose another air suspension piece to leaks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f1anatic Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I've seen just the other day a V12 Touareg. That was cool ! Spoke to the guy...64 years old car nut. That car has enough torque to move the universe.

hmmrdwn Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Give me a white one. People who want to drive fast and not get noticed. Black is for insecure people who crave power. Red is for people who want to get noticed. Green is for people who want others to think they have money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penguin Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 No minivans are for people who want to drive fast and not get noticed. You can drive a minivan 120 miles per hour in a school zone in front of a cop and not get a ticket, because you will be invisible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
