The 3.2 is a normally aspirated V6, While the 1.8 is a 4 cylinder with a turbo. If you want speed then the 1.8 is a tuning dream. But the 3.2 gives you quite a lot of power out the box and sounds fan-bloody-tastic.Originally posted by suityou01 View PostAnd these are 5 cylinder?
If you have not bought a quatro audi then you should have also probably driven a Saab.
This guy can't drive and misses the gears badly but even then it would have been over a 100 by the time he stopped the clip...

V6 FTW. 1.8 might be tuneable but it's not as nice IMO.
All the proper quattros had 5 cylinder engines. Nowt wrong with those.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment
