Instead of whining as usual, you should start actually read the thread (specially post #32).

I replaced my 2007 328i 6MT with a 2011 A4 quattro 6MT for a change, new car, new warranty and all wheel drive. I really liked the build quality of the A4, exterior styling but missed the BMW so much. While both cars had base suspensions I felt like the BMW performed better. Jan 2011, I picked up a X3 35i and a few weeks ago I sold the A4 to CarMax. I do not really miss it at all. From your post it looks like you live in a climate that probably requires all wheel drive, so if you like the styling of the current A4 or refreshed A4 go for it. I think the xdrive 3s will not be out until October per my dealer.

MERCSUk153 is a hater. i mean ur a audi fanboy, have u ever driven a bmw the balance is everything and audis are so front heavy from all their line up other than the r8. the only reason why people love audis ar b/c of the stupid led lights. also the a4, a6, a5 are more feminine cars in my mind. just my opinion

My current dilema is actually between the 2013 S4 and 2012 328i M Sport.
The 335i isn't considered I think the S4 is the better package for the money. Appeals of 328i Msport edition: Excellent handling feel (50/50 weight balance, 650lbs lighter) Excellent fuel economy Bang for the buck Appeals of S4: AWD / rear sport differential Stupid raw power (Easy tune) A tuned 328i M Sport will be pretty awesome I think. I wouldn't be surprised if it beats a stock 335i on the track. I've read that it does handle better stock already than the 335i due to it's perfect 50/50 weight distribution and ligher engine and overall weight. Even though it's a 4 banger, I can definitely live with it if it'll give me better handling and fuel economy. Reviews have indicated that you couldn't even tell the difference based on how smooth and driveable it is. Might not sound as nice but it's just different I'm sure. The turn off for the S4 for me is it's very vague steering and heavy feel. I know it'll be faster on the track but it won't necessarily feel faster if you know what I mean. |

If you guys are comparing how a car laps Mosport then thats different. I imagine most of your driving is on paved public roads? |

Interesting . I just realized that you are in South Florida. BMWs are huge down there and need (want?) for AWD is almost zero. For me AWD is large....we get snow and I want to know I can go anywhere anytime. I don't lik ethe sound or feel of I4 (vibration) but I'm sure thats the way of the future................

Not everyone loves overweight unbalanced awd cars. Go find an audi board to troll on.

I have owned BMWs exclusively since 1977 and currently on my second 335i coupe. My next car is going to be the 2013 S4. Audi is becoming what BMW used to be and BMW is becoming like a German Lexus.

So youre going from a 335 to a 328 because handling is more important than speed? Overweight, unbalanced awd?. I'd say youre confused and read too many car magazines.

335 is a great car. But i have a good feeling(especially after driving the N20 and trying the sport ZF8 speed. That the 328 will be a great, car.
