2003 A4 - 1.8T Quattro - 5 MT
The car is extremely stable, quiet and fun to drive. AWD is the icing on the cake. A lot of people complain about the 1.8T engine as not "powerful enough"; I contend they should have bought the 3.0 V6 then. The 1.8T provides more than ample power and has plenty of go.. but it's not a 220 HP v- 6. Compared to other entry level luxury cars, I feel the 1.8T with 5 speed manual is one of the better offerings. Ride and handling are very impressive. If your looking at any entry level german cars, you should at least drive an Audi. It's not for everyone, but I sure do like mine
Near Perfection
I've dirven them all. The 330 The G35 The IS-300 The 320 None of them compare.
Great car, but reliability issues
I bought this car certified used with 43k miles on it. I have driven Lexus, Acura, Infiniti, BMW and Mercedes. In general this is a great and solid feeling car. Outstanding interior which I like even better than the new models. Strong performance (acceleration a little light), and fabulous in the snow. Great car when things are working. Some reliability issues. Car got stuck in tiptronic day 1. Received flats on 3 of 4 pirelli tires that came with. Antenna had to be fixed, wipers got stuck vertical on windshield, had to replace brakes, fix broken wiper fluid tube, and engine steamed up once. I have never felt that the car would stop running on me, but things always need to be fixed.
