Great Car But....

This car does exactly what we needed it to do- take us from A to B with decent cargo and let's face it, pretty dang comfy front seats (there's only two of us and we rarely have passengers, but the rear heated seats are nice to have, and the same goes for the three zone climate control). The B&O speaker system is pretty good, and I can confirm that it is much more comfortable than some other cars on the market, as I have been asleep in the passenger seat while it was going well over 80mph. But after owning it for a few years, the LEDs in the center cupholders have started to yellow, and the Bang and Olufsen metal tab on the passenger door speaker consistently has stuck out (we even brought it up to Audi when we were having it serviced and they glued it in place, but it still pops out. At one point, I caught it with my foot getting out, and accidentally bent it, but that actually seems to have helped, as it's now sort of bent in to place). So overall, it's a great car, but I don't anticipate it living past 100k miles.

Beyond automotive excellence

I have driven Audis for decades, starting in 1980 and always loved the brand. Audi has a long, storied history dating back to the early 1900s, with distinguished heritage. It always pushes the boundary of technology & Innovation (hence the German motto “Vorsprung durch Technik”), not to mention a winning racing pedigree (Grand Prix in the 1930s, rallying in the 1980s, SCCA Trans Am, IMSA GTO, European super touring in the 1990s, 24 Hours of Le Mans and American Le Mans series in the 2000s, Audi R8 competition in the 2010s, and soon, Formula 1). The cars from Audi have character and style, and a unique combination of performance without sacrificing comfort & convenience. They are not mere transportation. This “B9” generation A4 (mine is an “ultra” Premium Plus S-line submodel & trim level) is the 7th Audi in my family. It is without question the most technologically advanced I have driven yet. The tech is not there for its own sake, it genuinely serve many functions and make them easy to use via the MMI interface as well as direct input switches on the center console and steering wheel. The more I learn about the little touches that the tech provide, the better I come to appreciate what the engineers thought of when designing the car. The result is sublime. The suspension is stiffly sprung like a good German sport sedan should be, and the result is quick and sharp handling despite the car’s size and weight, yet the body structure is stiff enough, and the low NVH characteristics makes the ride serene and comfortable on most roads. The engine is a marvel. With only 2.0 liter displacement, it nevertheless provides a satisfying rush of torque, power and acceleration when you step on it, all the while being very quiet. It feels so effortless! What’s more impressive, is how it manages to be fuel-efficient while pulling a car that weighs over 4000 lbs. I average about 28mpg in mixed city/highway driving. At 70 mph, the engine cruises at around 1500 rpm in top gear (it has a 7-speed "S-Tronic", a dual clutch manual transmission operated by computer, so you drive it like an automatic). The car has a fuel tank with around 13 gallons capacity, and a full tank can go more than 500 miles! Last but not least, the car is roomy inside, with ample leg room and head room even in the back. The trunk is cavernous, too. All that wrapped in a body that’s sleek and good looking, unlike other brands, the new Audi design language is elegance with a healthy dose of fierce attitude, but it’s not overdone. Inside and out, every surface, every line or curve is a feast to the sight and the touch. Every drive in this car is a treat to the senses! I’m very happy with this purchase.

Way too much Fly-By-Wire

Everything feels numb. Throttle feels delayed and overall feel of the car seems “disconnected.” Shifting is quick but getting into drive initially has an odd delay. High steering ratio of 16:1 is ridiculous, perhaps beneficial on no-limit European highways, but in the US completely burdensome... almost two full cranks to make a 90 degree turn. Center console intrudes on right knee... but plenty of room for left knee on passenger side. Obviously it’s core design is for right-side drive; left side drive seems to be an oversight. Seems they could have added an 8th gear; between 4th and 5th, the engine is either bogged or revved mighty high. Engine feels underpowered unless precisely within its power band. Does not feel like an A4. Audi, what happened?

Balanced & Spirited

First off, my manual has the "Sport Plus" package, so the interior has a brilliant alcantara small patterned seat with the S-Line imprint badge, squared off steering wheel, among other design features. The head rest is the perfect bit of soft and solid. The aluminium trim looks so clean. The turn signal feels very cheap. The exterior front is amazing, while the rear is just a tad old man. What helps the look on mine is the subtle optional carbon fiber spoiler. This upgraded TFSI 4-cyl engine is needed. I would not accept the power of the entry level 2.0T unfortunately. I keep the dynamic suspension setting on all the time to keep it as stiff as possible. Both of these features and slightly lower coils are from Sport Plus option as well. I am so happy that I purchased the final year manual 6-speed A4s in North America. The clutch is smooth and light weight. The stick itself does has a pause/resistance between gears, but I understand that this car is not designed for daily heel/toe shifting. Overall, it is the best car I could find for the value. I feel that Audi now offers the best balance of tech, sport, and luxury out of the car brands. I saved 10% off MSRP but paid the savings entirely to the pricey extended warranty.
