With Audi you get (as expected) the cabin noise levels you'd expect from an american car (something as expected you've found lacking in VW).
Really?
Clarify. You are disputing which part of my statement
1. VW is on average is noiser than an audi.
2. audi cabin noise level are comparable to cabin noise level in an typical american sofa on wheels
This one.
If you are willing and can pay $70k for even better sound proofing: good for you. Not so good for your pocket.
Thanks, I'll take that under consideration when I buy my RS 5 in a few years. And the Q7 was much more than $70k. In fact, optioned out, it was closer to $90k.
Well, as americans say, you have a rich taste.
Who doesn't.

Maybe you wear LLoyd shoes too? That $200 paid did not last a season. Fucking germans better keep to making automobiles.
Clarks.

I would not want RS5 ground clearance where I live. In fact I'd get a Land Rover Defender if I had the dough and was in a market for a jeep now. Would've kept A4 though for longer highway trips. But if your city utilities work like a swiss watch RS5 with an active differential in the ass would be a blast to drive. Much more so than your Q7.

American sofa cabin noise levels are good enough for most people. Otherwise no $20k appliances on wheel would leave the showroom.
....so you're abandoning the notion that cabin noise level in NA cars is comparable to noise levels in Audis?
I've had a 93 taurus in the 90th. The cabin noise level was good enough for me even at freeway speeds.
I had a 93 Taurus also, the wagon. The panels from the doors started falling off the 2 nd year.
But could it EVER plow through snow.Brake Dive, Acceleration Squat, Body Roll Works LLCNashton
Having a six pot under the hood helped too in the city when wind noise is not an issue. And the car was cheap to run. Was not much fun driving it though which is not an issue for LLoyd.
That's because he hasn't tried anything else.
I've had lots of cars of all types in my 55+ years of driving. From little 2-seaters to big vans and pretty much lots in between.
Nowadays I drive very little. 2 miles to the golf course, a mile to the grocery, 15 miles to the doctor and 3-4 350mi one-way trips. And I have no need to impress others with how much money I've spent on transportation any more.
Don't worry, you'll grow up one of these days too.
