Dima K yeah ive driven a lot of cars since then and after driving an 03 corolla for a day I really appreciated how fast my car was, and thought it was slow after driving an R8 for a couple days
I love when companies make cars that dont age , this a7 no matter what year does not age truly makes you want to keep it forever!

@@Jackw920 I got an A5 Sportback and I also sit insane close to the steering wheel. Probably also because of the amount of go karting and having a raceseat + wheel which I play racing games on. People always make fun of me that I sit so far to the front, but I don't care. It's comfortable AF to sit so close to the steering wheel especially when driving longer distances so you don't have to stretch your arms like crazy but you can just let them hang.
