LOl! VW shares no major parts with the A4/S4. Actually the A4/S4 has more parts in common with BMW than with VW. A4 has the same transmission from ZF while the S4 and the X6M have similiar if not the same sport diff.
Also you can't take a FWD car engine and mount it to an AWD car so the engines aren't even the same. A4 2.0T engine is not the same as a 2.0T engine from VW.
Most of the parts from VW, Audi, BMW, and Merc are all made from the same suppliers anyways. So you can think that your BMW is superior but in reality it is made from parts from same suppliers as VW/Audi.
I guess Porsche, Lambo, and Bentley are also just VW's.
If you still want to think that Audi is a VW than the BMW will just be a Toyota since they will be sharing parts later on with the co-operation in sharing technologies.
