[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 370020, member: 4527"] I have no doubt that Merc and Audi are more comfortable than BMW in general, but there's certain trade-off we can't escape in life. U want high speed stability, the suspension need to be firm. Extra layer of NVH materials and door seals will improve the quietness of the ride but such material are a weight penalty to the performance department. Which the VW GTI decided to keep them to a minimal.. This is how I would rank them, for a small saloon model. 1) Comfort: Merc, Audi, BMW, VW 2) Performance: VW, BMW, Audi, Merc It also greatly dependent on your desire and purpose. Looking for a weekend track car? Go for the VW. Last track day we had proved that the 325i is the slowest car on track.. :p Looking for comfort family prestigious cruiser? Go for either Audi or Merc. Looking for a Sheer Driving Pleasure? Go for BMW.. :wink: [/QUOTE]
