You could always step up and ask for a Maybach. Can't hurt. :rofl:

I stand by my statement that the A5 would be a smarter choice. I also agree with whoever mentioned the X3. Those two should probably be your top choices; they're both quick, easy to drive, stylish, well-built and generally reliable.
It wasn't a reliability problem it was a supply problem. At the end of last year until about the beginning of March of this year, Audi was having a supplier problem with its V8 engines which delayed delivery of S5's among other models.

Because it's ugly, because it's not as good as an M3 or C63 for the same price, and yeah like T said because it's a Toyota. :rofl:

Be patient.... Get the 2009 E70 with the twin-turbo V8 and the newly redesigned 4 wheel drive system that currently lives in the X6.

Hey, for that matter, what about an X6????

What is the story on the redesign 4 wheel drive system, will it also be on the 2009 335XI?
