Wait, because people didn't like the way it looked and they changed it after a very short run is why girls like your threepointslow? It's probably a fwd automatic, too.

Besides, girls don't always go for the bigger things. My fiancee likes my 9mm Beretta over my .40 Beretta. And about the bigger things, well, I don't need to worry about that, being black and all.

you guys do realize that they milked the b5 for as long as possible and then they (like every other company) changed designs every few years? Is that really so hard to believe?

I got the story from the audi german engineer himself (didn't know much english though)
the only reason they continued to use the B5 platform was because of budget cuts and limited development money. Changing the 1.8T engine several times and keeping the B5 platform saved audihundreds of MILLIONSof dollars.

It had HAWT GERMAN SECKS APPEAL and they were really good at cheaping out. Back then, Audi was a quasi-luxury car, but now they are hardcore all out sports luxury. Someone had to give BMW a run for their money!
