Acutally, if compare in price wise seem not proper here, we should compare similar hps range, if he can look carefully S4 and RS4's hps, then he will know how to identify and classify with 335i and M3. |

I think the S4 is a better performance car vs a 335i (but not more practical). However, haven't any of you tried to negotiate with an Audi dealer? All I dealt with were not willing to budge off MSRP for the S4. So for that reason, I went with a 335i at invoice.

First hand experience
I drove both of these cars back to back to back to back today, (Audi dealer let us take car for the day), drove it to bmw to test 335xi & i
Anyway, I have had multiple bmw's in the past, my parents have had multiple audi's, so have driven both brands a ton. I tried to like the Audi but just couldn't justify it over the 335 for multiple reasons. 1. Audi interior, electronics, etc. are far superior to that of the F30 (only thing that I prefer in audi interior are the sport seats with alacantara / two-tone leather.) 2. I know statistically the S4 if faster then the 335 but when driving back to back (both in the most agressive sport modes), the 335 just feels better. S4 shifting was seamless but I actually prefer the slight jerk between gears @ WOT with the 335i. 3. Msport > S4 exterior styling IMO 4. BMW offering much better MF and Residual rates for lease term. Anyway will be picking up my 335 sometime this week hope this helps others make their decision which ever way they choose. |

justinnum1, your statement about the trans of both cars could not be more off - i drove both cars back to back TWICE and the DCT in the 2014 s4 is leagues above in performance to the bmw zf8 - its not even close - MUCH smoother and MUCH faster on both up/downshifts there's no way you could have driven the audi to compare and if you actually did you must be so blindly biased towards bmw as to cloud your reality comments like yours which are so far from truth have the potential to steer people like myself in the completely wrong direction - bottom line is that you have to take everyone's posts with a grain of salt and get out and drive the cars to see how right or (mostly wrong) they are. i'm glad i did and now i know that the only trans worth even getting any kind of excited about is the s4's |

The huge drawback of the Dsg is that I know too many guys who have had to pay $5k to $11k for a used or new DSG transmission. It is almost guaranteed to fail. While I loved my DSG tranny for 6 years I decided to trade it in for the ZF transmission BMW before it failed. I would give up the little bit of performance for reliability and money in my pocket. |

the cars are so equal that for me it came down to which one would I enjoy opening my garage and looking at more. and the f30 M sport in estoril just blew away the S4 in my eyes.
Also RWD > AWD. i can slide the 335 pretty easy on the these all seasons. its alot of fun. F30 has the heads up. more comfortable suspension (b8.5 s4 owner opinion, not mine) quieter with the 8 speed when you dont want engine noise much better gas mileage.
