Ive always preferred Audis to the other germans. They speak for simplicity but at the same time maintain that air of individuality that makes them look so much better.
Another ‘nice’ looking Audi however they’re still pretenders and always will be when it comes to the other top league imports – Benz, BMW and even Lexus now kill Audi when it comes to real driving quality – Audi make well built cars but thats as far as they go – for real drivers stick the other makes
Obviously Andrew B has not driven an RS4 or an R8 absolutely ridiculous to compare a Lexus against these as both MB and BMW have been outflanked by this brace of Audis as an owner and more particularly a driver of a Porsche 993 bi turbo and GT3 Carrera Cup car, these cars are really impressive.
What a fabulous looking car. Audi pretenders? you’ve got to be kidding. Having owned a BMW3 and driven a C200, my A4 is a league above. It’s not without it’s issues – the electronics can be tempramental, but it’s the perfect car for style, comfort, safety, and performance. Audi designs some of the most elegant looking cars. From what I’ve read, the new A4 packs a lot more BHP and torque as well. This is going to kill a lot of the other germans. As for Lexus – a glorified toyota that will never have the same appeal as any of the Europeans.
Audis, might be fabulous looking like my A4 cabriolet but after 41,000 km the glue came out of the rear window and the car filled up with water. The seal cannot be fixed and we have to get a new roof. (I might add the car was always garaged and looked after) $13,000 dollars later and audi will only cover half the costs as the warrenty doesn’t cover trimming or glass. You would think that when paying over 100k for a luxury car that the windows wouldn’t fall out!!
Sorry ( LENNYOO)to hear that you have problems. As the German would say : “Das ist ein Montags Auto”. Which means, it’s been put together on a monday…It’s a monday car.
I just had the same problem. Went to a roof/upholstery guy who told me this is a common problem and the only fix is a new roof as the glass is factory heat sealed. (ouch). My problem is, I have an ‘04 with 65K miles. Roof is in perfect condition. Apparently, Audi was fixing these, but never did a recall. Risky proposition I’d say as the glass can actually fall out the back of the car if you aren’t careful. I went through water damage as well at a car wash, no less…
same problem with sunroof (glass and hinge all coming loose) and also when put thru the red line (yes i drive rough) these cars turbo blow up. happened twice already. what about the rev limiter??
