I had 5 Audi S4's and RS4's in my 20's and early 30's until they killed the manual transmission. I made the switch to the F80 in 2016 and at the age of 35 it was my first "non quattro" car.
I happen to truly love RWD now. I am on my 2nd F80 (i have an M3 CS) and am getting the G80 in RWD 6MT. I think AWD is totally overrated. I run Michelin Alpins from November to early April and I'm an avid skier. I have no issues getting to the top of a mountain in Maine under any conditions. That's just my experience.
RWD with snow tires outperforms AWD with all seasons and is comparable in functionality to an AWD with snow tires. |
Pretty much the same story as yours with regards to the many Audi's I've had and we are around the same age. I did 2 F80's and an M2c and while I never got stuck, it was quite challenging going up some of the steep streets here in Montreal (and with some pretty good Nokian Hakkapaleta's).
A lot depends on where people live.
