one lucky person to be able to get either car..as i was .. you can always change the exhaust to suit your ears!! living in DC consider all wheel drive for winter monthes etc.
how about a RS4 lol!! you only live once just do it. lol BMW are nice but boring to me unless i was on the race track with one. blah blah ..get the S4 , if i were you

When I looked at the difference between a loaded S4 and a comparable M3, the M3 was 10K higher in the US. Coupled with the AWD and the B&O audio, it was a better choice for me. I do not have much opportunity to use more than 333 hp anyway. 0-60 in under 5 is all I need.
I test drove the 335, but it left me a little flat. I have had a couple s4's previously - a 2000 and 2004. I am glad that my new S4 is on the boat.

It is supposed to be at the dealer the first week of November. BTW, I was originally told to expect it the latter part of November, so maybe they are cranking them out faster than expected. Good luck.
I will post pics when I have them. It was ordered Sprint Blue with the Ivory alcantara inserts. I hope the combination works OK.I wish they would have had the option for the bright blue inserts in the seats. They looked great in my 2004 S4.

Sounds nice. My '04 S4 was Nogaro blue with black/blue interior. Now I'm waiting for brilliant red with black/red interior. lol Looking forward to seeing pics.

I had the same in my 2004 S4 with Nogaro Blue exterior and loved it. I always got lots of compliments on the combo. I'm leaning towards Sprint Blue with Black/Brown Silk/Nappa Leather this time around when I finally make the plunge.

Last december I paid $52k OTD for my 09 3.2 A4 prestige. It kills me now to learn the S4 can be had for similar money, wish I waited. I also wish I considered the M3, maybe 1 year used. That's the only can of the bunch that I would consider over an audi. Only thing about the M3 is the interior is so boring, it would be a huge sacrifice over the audi a4/s4. I guess the sound of the M3 would help me get over that fast.
When my lease is up in 2 years, I'll probably go for the S4 or RS5 (if it ever comes out and I can come up with the extra (much extra) cash)
