You're missing the point of the question. I was asking why Corvette Owners like what they like, not asking them what I should like.

Also, hearing that the A4 needs to be beefed up after so much power makes sense as well. I know (coming from a Mustang Cobra Owners perspective) the the Standard T56/M6 can take a lot of abuse.

It's poll nothing more, nothing less.

I don't think I missed the point of anything. You asked A4 or M6? You are the one who needs to answer that. Next, ask BSM's or no BSM's? Then runflats, non runflats? I just think that your reasons should decide what you buy, do you ask others, "What kind of girl do you like, I'm trying to decide what type to date?"
