It may feel fast because it's smaller and feels lighter. but it's not faster than a G. All the 'A' model Audis are designed for luxury and electrical problems. All the 'S' model Audis are designed for racing with a lot of electrical problems. S4 maybe able to keep up with the G... not an A3...

again, A3 is is not faster than a G!

stop making me mad now

...I like Audis too... just not more than my G
I think I clocked my stock a3 a tick past 6.3 0-60 without using that crazy launch control start. but with it in Sport shift mode. I think my g, stock, 0-60 withotu a clutch dump was like 6.7.

i dont know, maybe my memory is foggy, maybe it was 6.2 - what is the norm for 0-60 without a clutch dump on a revvup? i remember when mine was modded out i ran a 1/4 mile in like 12.9 it was stupid fast, neftali can attest.

a stock GS-T ran 6.5 seconds in 0 - 60

a stock GSX ran 6.4 seconds in 0 - 60


a stock 6mt runs anywhere between 5.4 - 5.8 seconds 0 - 60

a stock 5AT runs anywhere between 5.5 - 6.0 seconds 0 - 60


there's no way in hell an eclipse is faster. i owned a 96 GS-T before i got my first G, no contest.

Default It's the suspension

The G's suspension is much stiffer than the eclipse's and probably more than the audi's.

Stiff suspension means you feel less Jerk (change in acceleration). I'm assuming that with soft suspension, the wheels take off first and the chassis sits still for a brief second as the weight shifts, then the springs have to pull the chassis to meet the wheels which makes you feel the acceleration more.

Kind of like those cartoons where the person gets pulled fast and their head stays on screen for a moment, then it springs back towards their moving body.

Don't mind GZ car porch. He's always into race stuff because he's a gnome. He would like to be insulted as a human, but always falls short. To his credit he was once mistaken as a lawn troll.

I'm not angry... just trying to say that the G35 is fast as I always expected it to be and I am extremely happy with it. I don't think the car is underpowered.
