    Facelift C6.5 Quattro

    Read this on Wiki, wondering if it's really true:

    "Also updated for 2009 is the Quattro all-wheel drive setup, which is already found on the 2008 Audi A5 and 2008 Audi A4. This new system features a 40/60 front-to-rear torque split and offers a more balanced feel, reducing the understeer that comes from 50/50 AWD platforms."

    Was originally wondering if we had the very first year of the 3.0T in our car (we do), but stumbled across that in the process.

    Yup, it's true. Our vehicles are equipped with the 5 gen quattro system.

    Sweet. I knew we liked this car, but it's always a plus when you find out the extra bonuses.

    It's not quite like the high bias torsen I have in the CQ, but it's pretty fun for a bigger wagon.
