The curious cult of Audi
-
I'm a member. I love the marque. I love its history. I loved driving them. I loved driving my classmate's 4000csq. I loved my '98 A6 2.8q. I love some of their cars still today.
I've made a final choice about my car, BTW. I'm going to buy the last generation of Hyundai Accent Hyundai sold in the US. I'm going to buy the last year within the generation that had a traditional automatic transmission. It's going to be in showroom condition with no more than 40k miles.
I would never want to have to maintain an Audi again. It's impossible. They are very fine when new but they are definitely drive a few years and get another one cars. I wouldn't buy an Audi or any car without a naturally aspirated engine if I could afford one.
In an ideal world I buy a '26 Toyota Camry white with red leather interior but it's not an ideal world.

It's a VW. I had a VW Atlas SUV over Christmas in Nevada and just hated it. Last time i rented a Passat in 2015 I hated it too. I'd love to try an Audi sometime.
Funny, since my first car was a 61 beetle. Drove it like a little German Ferrari. It was great, but I supposed my expectations have risen a bit.
