Don't know if this will help you at all or not. I have a 04' 1.8T Cabrio and a 07' Accord V-6 6spd. The honda is faster hands down. It is a nice car to drive on a daily basis. On the other hand, the Audi is much more solid of a car. Like you said, the Audi drives much more different. It just feels more solid all-in-all. If I had to choose one, it would definatly be the Audi. It just fits more like a glove than the Accord.

On a side note. I hardly drive the Audi. It only has 6700 miles on it. So when should the oil be changed if not driven often. I read about the sludge issues, and would hate to have such issues later on.
