Used 2004 Audi A4 Sedan Consumer Reviews
Right Brain Meets Left Brain
This car has probably the best combination of attributes among sports sedans that will appeal to both right-brained and left-brained people. For left brainers, there's the super- smooth, cutting-edge CVT transmission that doesn't sap engine power to achieve creamy smoothness (I previously drove sticks); absence of torque steer; superb handling and value versus BMW (I paid the same for this as I did for a 2001 BMW 325i with fewer options and smaller engine). For right- brainers,there's the clean exterior lines with an aesthetically superior interior design and quality of materials that can't be matched in any price class.
MPG worries?
I had concerns since most reviews I found mention an average of about 21-25mpg. I have found that reasonable driving habits have given me a combined average of 32.1mpg on regular gas over the last 20,000 miles! Of course if you bought this car to really drive it you won't do so well, but I was so impressed with the design, quality and ride that I got it to enjoy those features (I drive about 30,000 miles per year and don't race, or even speed much). A buddy of mine who does have a lead foot gets about 21mpg on premium in his 2001 A4 2wd.

Germans Do It Right
Love my Audi! Excellent quality inside and out. They did not cut corners on anything. I test drove the Infinity 35, Maxima, and found the Audi to be the best value for my money.The exterior fit and finish is awsome.

A4 3.0
This car is quick, but not fast. Great gearbox, very crisp and pretty short throws. Have yet to try the quattro in the snow, but this thing feels like it is on rails. This was the only car I could find that met the majority of my requirements in performance and luxury. I looked at the G35, 330, 9-3, TSX and IS300 and ultimately choose the Audi. AWD was a big factor for me over the G35 and 330. It is hard not to love this car....
