Avoid Audi made for the US market.
If you want a reliable Audi in the US, go to Europe to buy it and import it. They are not the same cars. Audi knows that it screwed up in the choice of timing chains for the US models but doesn't care because they work well for about 50-60K and then the problems start. Increased oil consumption, engine noise, turbo malfunction, stretched timing chains, dead engines soon after the warranty expires. I have rebuilt many of these engines and cause of failure can always be traced to cutting corners and using the same chain in many Audi, VW, and Skoda models. The torque on the Audi turbo engines is too great for the chain and it stretches it after some time. I now purchase a different chain (imported from EU) to rebuild these engines and once that is complete, they are great for 10-12 years of driving in the US.

The Best of Both Worlds!
I've driven everything in this segment from Lexus IS, MBenz, to BMW and this car is the best combination of Luxury, Performance, and comfort. I chose the Prem Plus Sport Pkg with 18s and 6spd Manual! Audi has completely raised the bar with this one. The sport pkg takes the handling threshold into triple digits with ease. Plus I've been getting 31.3 MPG cruising between 72- 80mph hwy which is unheard of. I had a 2007 Infiniti G35x and never got north of 19MPG. Just drive the A4 once and you'll understand completely.

Outstanding
This is my first entry level luxury sedan purchase. I'm very thorough in my research and compared BMW, Lexus and Audi. Performance, quality and style made Audi the best choice for me.
Love, Hate Relationship
Loved my Audi, but hated when it started acting up. "Awww Bwoy! What does this light means now?"

Love It!
I got the premium plus package with navigation. I've had the car for a few weeks and absolutely love it! The symphony style LED headlights are my favorite, everyone notices them. The 2.0T engine has plenty of power, I wouldn't want the 3.2L. Audi has done it again!
