Beautiful car, but no Rear Wheel Drive option is a deal breaker for me.

[AutoTrader]

It can send up to 80% of the power to the rear wheels.

[Man Garibay]

yes that is great,I know Quattro is safe an good handling, but there are some of us that just want rear wheel drive not awd. Thanks to Mercedes and BMW for giving us just that.

[AutoTrader]

Understood. AWD is nice to have, but unless you live someplace where you regularly have to drive on ice or snow, it's not really necessary. It adds extra weight and drag that decreases performance and reduces fuel economy. Thanks for the extra input!

@lexusfan100 ...i love their strategy because they use a male and a female reviewer and i think they do this in order so the male reviewer can give his opinion of the car and the famale reviewer can give her opinion of the car......because if u think about it...in my opinion a male viewer might b interested in the speed and technical stuff while the female viewer might b interested in the technology and comfort of the vechicle so thats y 2 reviewers of different genders r needed 2review da car

Bland exterior, though very similar the A4 and A8 look better
