It is a great car and if price was the same I would take one over the 335i, but the best they could offer me was a $1,000 incentive and 5.5% off, which would be GREAT if it wasn't a 2012 model! with $4K in options I don't want/need As we all know if you are going to keep this for say 3 years, when you trade it in or sell it, the car is viewed as a 4 year old car because of model year, they don't care when you bought it.
I dont know about the newer models, but everyone I ever talked to about Audi or s4 they always say they start to fall apart after 3 years.

When I had my 04 cobra, my tuner Bob Kurgan use to tune out of a shop in Machesney Park Illinois called Eurotech, and when I was there I got to talking with the shop owner, and I told him I was considering an a4 for a daily, and aked him how they were he said quote "they are in here all the time for rapairs, look into something else." His words. They were mostly B5 and B6's but still, thats fairly modern cars.
