Sure, they could spend money they really shouldn't be spending on an Audi, BMW or Benz but isn't that REALLY they problem with our country right now? People have become greedy and act based on their egos. They look at everyone around them and try to keep up in the great rat race. They spend money they don't have because they are fooled into thinking they need to. And when our greed screws us up, we look to the government to save us.

Mike, your Audi is what's wrong with this country.

I know you guys are all having fun baiting each other. As a previous owner of 2 Jags (XK150 and XKE) and familiar with friends that own Audi's and Evo's, I'd never turn one down. Fantastic drives compared to the general population, and my Jags gave me less problems than many mainstream cars I've owned.
I think Subaru, and Toyota, are trying to offer an affordable entry platform. And by the video, showing the possibilities. Not everyone can afford a full blown WRX STI. I think they could have gone farther in simplifying the base features, and cost. If they haven't based it on the basic drive train and suspension platform of the upper end models, they are truly fools.
How many of us have upgraded our cars performance, handling and looks based on resale value, especially when we are young and cash poor? We paid as we go.

Neither of my Audis have ever had any mechanical failures within my ownership. All I've had to do is regular maintenance. Both have almost 170,000 miles.

I'm sure you remember how the saying goes... "A gay man without a sense of style is just a gay man with a German car."

I'd buy one to if I didn't have to look at it when I walked out to get in it. Then again, I'd also buy a Prius as well if I could slit my wrist first.

No offense to either of you but, I think you have more in common in appreciating fine automobiles than you realize or, willing to admit.
