Default AU vs BA!

I know there has been about a billion threads on this, but every time I drive a BA I just can't help but feel it's almost a downgrade from an AU!

I regularly drive my brothers BA XR8 and need to drive BA's at work fairly often, and every time I do, I can't help but notice the cheap and tacky dashboards, the low grade plastics, the MUCH heavier feel of the BA, lack of response from the 6's, heavier steering, and the list goes on!

Then there's the fact that practically every BA I drive has squeaky rattly interiors and I know my brothers has been back under warranty for a heap of things, yet my 170k old AU is still quiet and squeak free and has had nothing go wrong in 1.5 years of ownership.

I know I'm biased being an AU owner but I'm also not blind enough to understand why to many the BA is a huge upgrade.

Does anyone else out there feel the same way?
