I've found my next car..

http://www.audiusa.com/audi/us/en2/n...s/Audi_A4.html

Wow, Simply Wow

I want a 2.0T loaded!

http://www.audiusa.com/audi/us/en2.html Watch the A4 Commercial...'

From cars.com

A4 in the Market
A fine line runs between dynamics and comfort. Stray too far to one side, and you'll have a rip-snorting Sunday driver that runs you ragged by Wednesday's commute. Run too far to the other, and you have — well, the new TSX. In many ways, Audi redefines the balance: It makes par for visceral driving enjoyment, and it comes out way ahead for the daily drive.

The idea behind a sport sedan has always been to package athletic moves with passenger-friendly confines — namely backseats, trunks and a few luxury goodies. In its redesign, the A4 sets the bar for just how far that concept extends. If you're shopping the competition, think hard about Audi's contender.

Why would you....?

Critics say that it's not as comfortable as C class or sporty as 3er... and handling isn't any better than C.

My biggest gripe with Audi is that all its cars are built on a front wheel drive platform and just mounts Torsen differentials to make it all-wheel drive, whereas BMW and Mercedes-Benz are truely rear-wheel drives.

The exterior isn't so bad though... their design theme seems to be about an understated elegance.

It's hard to see from the front which's A3 or A8! Or anything in between.

Unless it has RS in front of it, don't bother

I like the A5 better, but it's good to see that Audi isn't hiding their MPG estimates anymore. Finding fuel consumption #'s on their site was almost impossible. The A4 looks pretty cool, but why not a 335xi sedan?

Did you look at a Infinity G35 sport?

I think it is a lot more car for about the same money.

A4 is nice, but I personally would go for an A5 - that is a hot ride!!!

It looks like the G37 will even be better
