Ima youngin I guess (only 23) but I think it's time to venture outside my comfort zone a little. I been a Nissan fanboy my entire life. I was lookin at either a A4, A5, or S4--but since I been so into Nissan and dealing with military I have no clue what's what. What's yalls opinion on the Audi yo

I like Audi great styling with performance to match (though I drive Bimmer)...

Price range? Based on your comparison I'd go S4 before the A5 easily,and of course the A4 vs the S4 isnt a fair comparison at all. If money isn't a problem and these are the 3 you're looking at go with the S4

If money is an issue you might want to look at car max to kind of get a feel for whats out there.

get a Benz instead.

BMW then.

:heh:

Don't own one that's too old, that's all I can say. If you go S4 and get a B5 model, the turbos will surely go bad at some point, fixing to the tune of $5,000 and higher. If you get a B6 w/ the V8, you're going to have carbon buildup issues in the cylinder heads and more issues w/ the timing chains, that's more rape as that's upwards of $8,000 to fix that.

So at the end of the day, have a warranty.

Decatur where its greater

:salute:To Ricky for trying to keep the Audi brand from being diluted.

For those who don't know he loves Audi don't let the curve ball fool you.

To TS, if you can wait that new S3 might be something to look into. Should drop fall 2014, those early performance numbers are looking nice.

I knew it as soon as he said "get a benz" :skip:

As for the brand not becoming diluted, your days are numbered there. Audi #1 globally isn't it?
