Ehhh I had a 98 e36, got rid of it for my a4. Mod wise, so expensive to mod the bmw. And quite frankly with bmw you either get gold or a lemon, been there done that.

I would take the A4 quattro over any RWD cars in the wet conditions of Seattle.... I love being able to actually accellerate from a stop when it's rainy and take turns with confidence. I came from owning a Lexus IS300 (RWD) and even with 255's in the rear, wet weather wasn't fun.

really out handling another car when stock all depends on the driver. but on the other hand my a4 is lowered and i dont think there is a bmw where i live that could touch it.

Sorry to but in, but....

I come from jeeps and never drove a BMW so I'm definitely biased towards A4's, handling wise i think its great, even tho i have the FWD, i have the Koni struts with Tein s-tech springs and it handles like a king, but soon I'll be getting some coilovers... dunno which ones yet, any suggestions? best bang for the buck?

Also i live in Miami so half of the year we get rain by the buckets, never had a problem with it, and looks wise to me personally Audi's take the title

im with a4nick on this one. if you were talking about an e46 then maybe the bmw would have a chance of out styling but theres nothing sleek about an e36 box. just my opinion.

Yah i looked into that walla walla one more and the paint is horrible on it, the hood is peeling the door jams everywhere its horrible. But yah they are spendy to mod kinda why i wanna go a4 especially since i plan on uppin the turbo and everything. I found a pretty nice red one in wenatchee i might go look at 120k miles 2000 a4 1.8t quattro for 4k what you guys think?
