Took this out for a ride at the dealership today. I was very impressed with the drive when equipped with the sportier suspension and larger tires of the s-line package as compared to the regular A4 2.ot. I was having a tough time deciding between this car(in black with the black alacantra seats) and the BMW 335xi. Ive never owned a Audi before, usually go with the BMW's but i think this car looks pretty aggressive. Also, any opinions whether to order in automatic or the 6 speed manual??(this car was the automatic, I will also order it with the quattro as this test ride car was) what does everyone think??? sorry about the pic quality, it was from a camera phone.

 

IMHO this car is prettier than any BMW

335xi is a nice car, though

I'd go with the DSG (automatic) is the best transmission in the world for street cars. Ferrari said they will remove the F1 transmission in some of their base line cars and will develope an Audi/VW like DSG transmission.

If you get bored you can shift to manual anytime!
