CARGUY...before I vote for anything. Please tell what's the point? Are you asking about daily drivabilty, reliablity or track worthyness. It's kind of pointless to keep making poles without a legitimate question to back it up.

Thanks.

I am asking about the best overall package to live with everyday between the three.

I find it strange you have a poll discussing AWD rockets without mentioning Audi.. Are you considering buying one of the 3?

On this board you know which car is going to get the votes. BMW for me too. Then strangely enough I'd want the Subaru. Martin will take the Subaru also.

Then why not have an audi A4 Quattro? What about a C350 4Matic? You're asking about daily drivability but only have 1 car that is luxury while the others are KNOWN track beasts but not daily drivers. No offense but you're polls are a little fishy man.

Re: AWD Rockets - 08-08-2008, 06:38 AM

Okay buddy your thinking to much please stop giving so much importance and thought into my polls and go with the flow. Which one do you think is the best overall package. Now I picked BMW against these 2 beats because I know the Bimmer is the most driver focused car with respect to handling and response. It had turbo just like the other two. Also the AWD version to be more on par and fair for this comparison. The C350 cannot keep up with these 3 and the Audi A4 3.2 Quattro much the same again. Really we all know the 335i is in a league of it's own so it is best to put a fight against these two and in order for Audi and Mercedes to keep up we have to move into the much to harsh and aggressive RS4 and C63 which is just overkill anyways.
