This came from Forbes Magazine.

Our first instinct is to attribute the 3 Series' success to the difference between the brand images of BMW and Audi. The former is glamorous and established, while the latter is an arriviste trying to overcome a reputation for poor quality that lasted until the mid-1990s.

Johan de Nysschen, executive vice president in charge of Audi of America, said at the A4's media introduction in February in Arizona that he cannot understand why Audi's cars are not as well known in the United States as they are in other markets, particularly Europe
So maybe its because we have to earn the respect from the BMW owners. We're doing a pretty good job considering there are a lot of 1.8s out there that can kick the crap out of most BMWs in its class.

Yeah I know what you mean. But have you sat in an 07 A4 lately? Hell of a lot nicer than a 3 series. Build materials are superb! I agree that BMW owners are stuck up. So are MB owners. But who cares, at the end of the day, we win!

The history is much longer with Merc and BMW than Audi. It was well established that itis german luxury and the car to have a long time ago. Audi still has many years to fight to gain that kind of perception with the people.

agree totally. its the name audi needs to get more respect for.
in comparison audi wins 2 me.
-audi TT or bmw z3-z4?
-audi a4 or bmw 3 series?
-audi rs4 or bmw m3?
-audi a8 or bmw 7 series?

2 me audi wins all of the above.
