A money magazine is not the first place to go for car advice...

This guy has no clue what he is writing about. For a start, he did not even know that Viggen comes from the fighter aircraft and means 'Thunderbolt', not 'something like "pumped up"'. Then he goes on with the usual non-car-person complaints about petty stuff, that real car people don't care about. He finally proves he has no idea what he is talking about by suggesting the Audi A6 2.8 as an alternative to a Viggen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The only thing the Audi has in common with the Viggen is it's European and it costs about $38,000!!!!!!!!!!! For crying out loud, the A6 is an obese, underpowered four door, four seat executive slug. He may as well have proposed the Lincoln Town Car as an alternative, it costs about $38,000 too!!!!!!!! A money magazine is the last place to go for advice about cars, unless you want to end up very bored. Do you read car magazines when you are thinking about the next move for your 401k???????? The problem is these idiots are just trying to put a little excitement into their otherwise very dull publications, and they are just a little too conservative to do it with nudie gal pictures, so they try to do it with cars instead.
