my dad used to drive MBs too. then when he tried my e46, he quickly became a bmw fan n changed to a bmw. he says MB cannot be compared to bmw when it comes to driveability .....

as for me, i dun think i will ever let myself own a MB. even if i do, it has to be an SL n it will hve to join my bmw in my stable...

Aston? no way, crap, basically just had built Fords, lots of muscle and no brains! Just Jags, overpriced Fords...total rubbish!

Lambo, now that's a different story, the fact that they are owned by Audi, makes them very desirable indeed. I think over time, they will give Porsche a good fight.

Hey Toto, I'll chop if someone will buy me a Gallardo!

Hey guys; who's this no 1 guy you meeting up with? If its other than Charlie Brown, I'll definitely try to find the time. Would like to hear your problems and possible rectifications before my ride eventually comes in.

As for the MMI, lots of button surrounding the knob...kinda defeat the purpose, when one spent couple of hours with a car and at that instance have to learn to figure out the i-drive, you can see pretty well why everyone who writes the review finds it challenging.
The new A6 brought into Singapore is a 3.0L Quattro not the new and superior 3.2L FSI engine. Weird!
Nobody at Premium Auto could answer my question as to why not the 3.2L FSI.

Hey Zag,

This mtg is supposed to be jus me and Robert Friend !

I was talking to a senior w/s manager and he passed many of my comments to RF. Now they want to hear me out and I thought I could rope one of our kakis in as well, despite being reminded that it would be a private casual chat .

I was looking forward to see what comes out of this coz, AFAIK, perhaps only Zag and myself have 12.2 in our ride and thus the annoying Acceptance message.

Will report here on outcome of our chat .
