Re: S3 review: gorgeous with a turbo lag

I suppose I'm not really that cut out for a highly strung motoring experience. I like something that can be everything to me - a performance car, a bit of a luxury car, a useable car. It can provide excitement and relaxation. To that end, I might like NA better. Admittedly the only turbo experience I've had is at the hands of a VAG 2.0TDI engine, but it wasn't the most responsive off the line.

Nevertheless, high pressure turbos and high revving screamers (a la Civic Type-R) aren't my cup of tea. All respect to Martin and those who like 'em, of course!
