At audi, many ppl buy the quattro system, why not the Xi at bmw?
 

Many ppl love audi, because they have AWD. But why are so few ppl driving BMW with AWD? DOes the Xi system suck?

it's all about image i think. audi has branded the quattro as a technically advanced solution through dozens of advertising campaigns whilst BMW never made much fuzz about it.

just remember the audi campaign when a 100 quattro drove up the ski jump thing - something like that sticks in mind

I thought that was fake?!?! :Oh crap

it is, but it's the advertising that sticks with ya.

no, it was not a fake. that's why they did it last year again. they just attached a steel rope in case it won't work and the car would start to slide backwards. but they didn't tow it

easy answer

bmw xdrive sucks because the 4wheel drive won't work when you drive backwards.

if i buy a all wheel drive car i want it to have this feature permanently

That picture of Donner is too fucking funny.

I didn't know he is such a good rapper after all :)

Good to have standards reguardless of how bizarre.

:thumbsup

yeah, his rapping is better than is 'beleid' tho:)

It was pretty good actually :)

I love this slogan from bmw although i dont like bmw.

The first diesel that drives like a BMW

Good advertisiing

Audi Quattros have been around for years and are well proven.

I think BMW also has the XI models for a long time. But also when you visit a showroom/dealer, they never expose the XI models..Strange if you ask me..

Quattro is a full time all wheel drive system, as opposed to Xi's only engaging when the wheels slip (not true Alltime AWD).

Plus, the Audi circles are much cooler than the bmw's logo :)

Okay I wasn't aware of that...

My Audi 80 Quattro GTE from 1986, when Quattro still was something very rare...
