Mine is simple. Performance, exterior looks and the seats, awd
car that can hang with just about anything street legal, great motor, capabilities, somewhat limited number of them. There is
much more just wanted to know others reasons.

I just wanted a nice sized sport utility vehicle to put my 24" Chrome Dubs on!!!

PLUS, I wanted something with a sharp interior boasting leather, On Star, and twelve LCD screens for my various game systems and my state of the art THX/Dolby sound treatment...

Performance was not a concern, nor was actual sportiness. I just got it for the Ho's...

HeHeHe,

AWD turbo not to mention the majestic line of sports cars, I've always dreamed about buying a VI... the VIII is close enough for me

No kidding. I knew of these in England nearly ten years ago but couldn't afford one then. Wish it looked more like the VI TME, but it still rocks.

I bought mine because it doesn't have acd/ayc, front lsd and 2 din dash stereo . Oh yeah, also because it has kick *** performance!! And finally been able to pick your own car in most Racing/Rallying games.

It is as fast as my Lightning, and handles as well as my Miata. So I was able to combine two vehicles (and insurance payments) into one. Lost some cargo capacity, and top down fun, but its worth it overall.

AWD, 271 hp, 3265#, $32000, and a long list of performance features.
For the money, this car is sick!
I like the S4 but why pay more for less performance?
I bought it to show automakers that some people really want performance. Heated leather electric seats in a 3800# car does not spell performance. I don't care if it is a twin turbo!
Thank you
