Are you for real???

 

I get the luxury, premium car concept you all have developed and completely agree on that side. I have a Lexus myself. But I'm asking in terms of, performance, reliability, and maintenance costs...

Thanks

 

Civic wins for your cause

 

if you want all that into one package...then its the civic

 

he's asking about performance, reliability, and maintenance costs. the a4 can't touch the civic in terms of reliability or maintenance costs, and the performance is a wash. the luxury and class of the audi make up for the relative lack of reliability and expensive maintenance in my opinion, but it's your decision. have you driven both? I have a feeling that if you drive the audi your decision will get a lot easier.

 

I do not know much about Audis but I'm guessing that S-Line is a sport package for the A4? I noticed that this A4 I'm looking at has considerably nicer rims than others and has a small lip on the front bumper making it look sportier than the one next to it. Can anyone fill me in? Thanks


I will be driving them tomorrow and I'm getting the same feeling. Thanks Belligerence.

 

Totally different cars.

But hands down go with the A4, you won't regret it

 

that civic is overpriced thou...
is this true???
"audi a4 1.8t quattro manual 0-60: 8.2s"
"civic si 0-60: 6.5s ftw"

 

From what I can find, the civic si 0-60 time is in the 7.2-7.4 range. Not only that, but Audi is very conservative with listing their 0-60 times. Overall, the A4 will own the civic with some minor engine mods.

A4 FTW!!!!!

 

Agree ^^ Drive the Audi. Only took once for me. I was sold. Bought my first Audi in Feb.
