Was that a Passat or a Bora/Jetta ? Sychro was the name given to the older
VW's 4wd system, which they now call 4-motion over here, if it was a Bora
how did you find the Haldex Vs Torsen, as you now have RS?
I've never driven a Haldex 4wd but can't imagine I would feel as secure as I
do in my A4.

It was an 86 Quantum Synchro with an Audi five cylinder and an Audi transaxle.
It was the same as an Audi 4000 except with a VW wagon body. Great car.
Joanne and I rallied in it for several years, finally giving it to my
son-in-law when we bought a 90 5 cylinder Turbo 200 wagon.

I believe the Quantun had Torsen also, I may be wrong, but I believe it had
the same running gear as an Audi, and not one of VW's engine/transaxle.

Love the RS6. Just coming up on 15K joy filled miles. It embarasses the hell
out of most Corvettes and Porsches, but blasting STS "Dudes" is about as much
fun as you can have in any car.

Operative word being "quattro". I've driven a friends 1.8T and it's a lot of
fun.
When you get to be an old geezer and the kids are edumacated and the house is
paid off, *then* ya can get that RS6. I never would have made it to old
geezerhood if I had an RS6 when I was 21.
