because many people would more likely trust years and years of consistent survey information from thousands and thousands of owners over your study of ONE car.

Some of my very close friends drive audi too, they don't have any problems for years, so I guess we are really lucky men in this world ---- drive an Audi and no problems. wow!

And I bought the Acura because of the trust of the years and years of consistent survey info, now I have to always go to acura dealer to fix the car, u can easily find it out in this community ---- 60%+ ppl complain about it. so u think the survey really means something?

I'm not trying to argue with u, this is just my experience.

And since you and your close friends have not had any problems for years, that must mean that Audi is the most reliable brand out there? Do you mean YOUR experience really means something vs. the experience of hundreds of thousands of other people?

I'm sure I can find at LEAST 1000 people with a TL/CL that has NEVER had any tranny problems. Can we now say that Acura's tranny problem doesn't exist?

Same thing...you can find a handful of people with Audis with no problems, but it doesn't mean that their reliability problems don't exist.

Its a lottery. My sister lemoned her 99 323i, and when she got an 02 325i, the same exact problem persisted, although they could fix it the first time.

No problems at all with the 05 RX330.

I didn't say Audi is the most reliable brand out there, ok? but at least we don't
have any problems with our AUDIs, we r happy with it, the car is not as that bad
as u said, that is the point, ok?

what do u mean my experience vs hundreds of thousands of other ppl?

u know so many ppl out there? or just some numbers on the internet or magazines?
u trust the magazines?

u know what, get the car, drive it, then talk ~
