I thought we were talking about fun cars we might like to own just for the fun of driving them, and you said you had a Mustang for that purpose, and I said, to each his own, but I never thought Mustangs were much fun to drive. If I'm going to get a second car as a summer toy (whether it's $12k or $50k or more) I at least want it to be appreciably more fun than my daily driver. And to me, that one's not. That was my point.

Doesn't really require a page of back and forth; if you like driving your Mustang then more power to you. Was just a comment in a thread about cars that I don't really like the way that one drives. I drove a civic for a couple years and that's not a good comparable, but in principle that's sort of what I'm getting at; I never got much more out of the experience than "well, this is a car". Not, "this is a fun performance-oriented machine".

EDIT: Oh, the RS6 was just what came to mind when I thought about Audi, which was really just a response to my confusion at you suggesting that RWD was a necessary box to check.
