Default Thinking of a new A4: Pros and Cons?

Hello,

I am looking at either a new A4 or a BMW328Ci. I was wondering, from you long term owners, what the A4 pros and cons were? Thanks in advance...

Default You're not the first to ask. Check the archives. Here's a brief summary.

Pros (better than the 328)

exterior design
secure road feel & handling in bad conditions (w/ quattro)
quality of materials, fit & finish
more unique
more enjoyable to drive daily w/ sport package

Cons (worse than the 328)

less power (stock form)
less tossable handling (drawback of quattro)
less rear seat room (not by much)
resale value


When you add the difference in cost, the cons don't carry as much weight. But you can't argue the popularity of BMW's, which helps their resale. Audi is gaining in popularity, so it might not be a big deal.

The answer is in your gut. Drive them both and go with it.
