obviously, there are rules and exceptions to rules but, in the case of audi and vw, there's
a great deal of common technology across the various platforms.
for example, i have a 1999 audi a4 which is based on the vw b5
platform which is shared with the passat from the same years.
they're basically the same car...

Good Job snowboardspaz, didn't know so much of the forum was so passionate about audi's and V dubs

Yes, VW is the parent company... Audi in turn owns Lambo... Bugatti is also in the mix as well. So is Seat, Skoda... and where is Porsche in all this.

Go into any VW or Audi dealership and they'll say that they are the same? You are killing me... maybe if you went into a VW dealership a salesguy would tell you that they are the same.. but not at an Audi store.

I'm embarrassed for you. Please stop while you are behind, or keep going... this is the internet so it'll be pretty fun to see what you come up with next.
LOL "fact" !!!!!

Yep, this is the internet, which is why you are acting like a keyboard tough guy right now. Unfortunately for you, a quick search reveals that most of Audi's and VW's most popular cars share platforms, drivetrains, engines, transmissions, electrical, etc etc etc parts with each other, are manufactured at the same plants by the same company, and are equally as unreliable.

Subaru, Toyota, and Honda make the most reliable consumer cars, period. VWs are garbage from the get go, Audis (generally) are after 50-60,000 miles.

But hell, I don't buy German sissy sedans so what do I know?!

How was your T Day? I'm working from my house today, too lazy after the weekend to drive to the city. Plus after the scenery from Maine to here, I don't want to see the city

These statements would seem to contradict each other....

How was the drive to Sunday River? I've never actually gone cause I assumed it was about 10 hrs but Google says 7ish. Is that realistic passing Boston?

I was actually implying that AUDIs at least look really cool and have enough luxury features, including AWD, so that under warranty, its still a car worth having for 50k miles or so, whereas VWs are just ugly and poorly made cars from the start
