maybe fine on a cheap car like an abarth or something, but not sure if i want to spend over $40K? on something that's going to break. how much are these S3's?
Probably around 40k with a couple options.

There's not many options that are better in that range though (luxe compact). If you want an AWD luxury sedan Audi is the only game in town. BMW's X-drive has nothing on Quattro and in my experience recent offerings from both are about equivalent.

I wouldn't have considered anything from VAG a couple years ago and I'm fairly pleased with my current VAG ride, though I've only had it a couple months. I'll report back down the road!

Something about driving something called a VAG doesn't sound manly In all seriousness I'd like to drive this in person as an Audi is on my radar down the line.

Is it better if you get a hatch and call it the VAGwagon?
