Best all around for sport and luxury
My 2011 Audi A4 has been a great all around car for someone looking for luxury and sport. The S-Line interior is amazing and the sport seats are extremely comfortable and supportive. The turbocharged four-cylinder engine is decent but you will suffer slight turbo lag and it can't compare to the supercharged six-cylinder in the S4. I drove the 328i/335i, C300, IS 250, and G37 and decided the A4 was the best car at combining fun-to-drive, nice interior and exterior design, fuel economy, and technology. My one disappointment is the fuel economy--only 23.3 mpg over 62,000 miles of mixed driving (almost all driving in regular "D" mode; I rarely put it into sport mode). The car has been reliable with only two non-routine repairs, both of which happened in the last 10,000 miles. I'm very happy with the car and am looking at the new "B9" A4 to replace this one.

High tech goodies in a great ride
I've driven the 2011 A4 for 4,000 km now in a variety of weather and road conditions. Top marks so far for the very peppy turbo 2L engine, the solid but not harsh ride, quiet interior, roomy trunk, confident handling from twisty roads and sharp corners, and an entertainment system that is a match to any desktop computer. Medium marks to the odd LED daytime running lights that wink out when a turn signal is on, the turbo lag off the line, a slightly choppy 8 speed auto transmission that isn't as silky as it should be, and back seats that aren't quite roomy enough for the legs of taller adults. Room for improvement on head space for the driver.

Failed Turbo before 100k Miles
The car has performed well but the repair costs are expensive and failures are occurring on a well kept vehicle under 100k miles. The car had oil leaking issues, which was solved and covered by Audi, a failed air condition unit at 60k miles and now at 83k miles a failed Turbo which is very expensive.

No major repairs
I am very pleased with my A4 overall. I love driving it -- the car scoots and turns corners like it's on rails. I don't drive fast enough to notice any understeer, which is reportedly present (CD). Only two minor complaints: First, it uses oil. In the two years I've owned it, only two extra quarts, but still extra oil. Second, the radio has an inexplicable quirk. I regularly (read always) listen to an AM talk-radio station. Once in a while - it seems to correspond to cold wet weather - the sound flops from low to high volume. The amount of flop seems to correspond to the settings that specify how much the radio sound is turned down when the parking sensors are doing their job. But the parking sensors are not on and it only weirds out on the one station; others play just fine. I guess as long as you don't listen to talk radio, this is not an issue. Note: The dealer couldn't figure it out and was not interested in fixing it, despite it being under full warranty when I took it in. That didn't please me much. I'll buy my new 2017 Q5 somewhere else. I repeat -- I absolutely love this car -- more room than a BMW 3-series and just as fun to drive.

Nothing like a manual!
I bought an audi A4 premium AWD certified vehicle because it was the only upscale vehicle still available with a manual transmission. The car handles great and is fun to drive. I highly recommend this car. Before this car, I had a basic model that was totaled. The car saved my life. I was disappointed in this model but my new certified pre-owned has all the features my basic car lacked. It is a premium plus. I love the back up camera and split backseats. I have to have an AWD car because I live in a very hilly area and it handles great in the snow!
