If Mr Peanut says It's okay, then it is.
Yes dear.Sure. But the failing was yours rather than the car's. Nothing wrong with that. It happens.
Why do BMW and Audi owners often seem to drive like idiots?

AMG is completely meaningless now. Merc would put it on a shopping trolley if they made one.
M still has some chachet but they do but the 'M Sport' brand on some pretty lukewarm cars. However M Competition cars are still the real deal.

You'd need to qualify your version of "lukewarm" really, given that it's unlikely to be many other people's. M Sport is styling and extras rather serious performance upgrading.

If it's just styling then the sport bit seems a bit misleading really doesn't it. I suppose Polo Sport didn't make you go faster either tbf

Do they no longer have hand built engines, with Klaus building an entire engine before signing his name to it?

My A6 is a 1.9 sport. It's slightly lowered, has a twin exhaust and bigger wheels.

Depends. Pretty much all manufacturers have had "sport" versions of various models. As mentioned it usually means a few body styling mods, different wheels, suspension, and interior, rather than it necessarily being a faster car, although it may be. Most people know that so I don't think anyone who buys one would feel particularly misled.

Your conclusion is probably correct but for the wrong reason. Most of the unintended silliness on the thread hasn’t come from them.

But that’s only considering performance. Once again, that’s not what M Sport is. In this case it’s appended to a car which has undergone the relevant styling and handling surgery and signifies those differences comparative to other models in the series. The performance version is the M2, which IS seriously quick.

That research highlights that all drivers are racist and sexist, yet the article focuses on the cost of the vehicle. Serious study

"The answers were unambiguous: self-centred men who are argumentative, stubborn, disagreeable and unempathetic are much more likely to own a high-status car such as an Audi, BMW or Mercedes," the press release states.
"These personality traits explain the desire to own high-status products, and the same traits also explain why such people break traffic regulations more frequently than others," Lönnqvist added."
