Dear GOD! Give me a Duc with air suspension, awd, computer this, computer that.... and I don't know what type of Audis you guys have owned, but I still love LOOKING at them but doubt that I will ever own another one. They are a dismal marque for long term ownership.
For that matter, the only thing that saves Porsche owners is the wonderful technical support from fellow enthusiasts. I cannot believe how much the world has changed. In the 60s the better German cars were just getting broken in at 100K. Today you live in fear of the complex computer/relays/motors.. all the electrical crap in these cars that turn to garbage if they weren't delivered that way in the first place. It's enough to make a person buy a Japanese car! [oh, i did that.. but my toy cars are all Porsches]
On the other hand.. can you imagine what the current Ferraris and Masers are going to be like to repair when they are 20 years old? That makes me credit Audi for the R8... but the R8 only.
