Audi cars are so less…

Because Audi's are probably the most boring cars on the road and horrible for circuit driving.

I can set the scene of driving one.

You walk from the rear of the car past the fake exhausts, walking past the unremarkable exterior and jump into the office like interior.

You accelerate with no skill at all with the automatic gearbox and all wheel drive. You come to a corner, the car feels like it will never slow down because of it's sheer weight. You try to turn but the understeer is so severe that you have to slow down yet further. As you wallow around the mid corner you try to floor the throttle to induce oversteer and get the car turned. Unfortunately the computer kicks in and activates the amount of traction control normally reserved for driving up a snowy Alpine mountain. At the same time the all wheel drive kicks in and instead of the car rotating towards the apex instead it's trying to pull you to the outer reaches of the corner! You slam on the brakes again barely making the corner and feel relieved you've made it through the ordeal.
Don't forget that after you take that turn, the car will break down on you and you'll have to get it towed to a mechanic to fix where you'll be greeted with a bill for $12k worth of repair work.
