When Audi passes BMW in global sales, I wonder what kind of billboard BMW will put up?
Mercedes should get theirs ready soon, BMW has a couple years to go.

Just wait for the 335D to come to Canada...
265 bhp and 425 lb.-ft. of torque.... 38 (some people reporting as high as 48) mpg on the highway...
Out in Europe they even have that engine in the 6 series..

Decided not to get the A4. The fact that Audi won't offer an extended warranty plan is slightly sketchy. More alarmingly so is the fact that the resale values for Audis drop precipitously after their warranties are up, more so than other cars. The A4 is a well made car with an amazing interior, but just not for us at this time.... =|

Audi's are very well built cars, great interiors but some of their cars are way over priced and warrenty sucks. I was looking at the A5 and I couldn't push myself to pay $55,000+ for a car that should be priced alongside the E92 328i so I went with the E92 335i instead but I read that Audi is dropping the v6 and coming out with the 2.0 A5 which will be priced at $42,000. If the pricing is true it should make things quite interesting because I think the A5/S5 is the best looking coupe around and if priced right it will really take away from the E92 sales. What are you planning to get now?
And Penner, no 335d for the coupe just the sedan.

Nice choice. The LCI E90's look hot.

I like the A4's aesthetics. However, it doesn't handle nearly as well as a BMW. The suspension is soft and comfy, but too soft for spirited driving.

The Audi 2.0T has so much more to offer than 328xi. 335i, now that's a different story.

We liked the audi very much but reliability seems super sketch. If I had my way, I'd get a 335d in a heartbeat, but xdrive wasn't available for it. The torque on that car is addictive. The 328i is not too bad in terms of acceleration, especially with sport mode on. It's the BMW inline 6, I don't see how it would sound like crap.........
