Has a ton of m performance parts and looks way more aggressive. After I made the purchase went back to Audi and scoped the s4 again and the look was just to ordinary for me. Thought I'd have some buyer remorse but I had none at all.

It could be the fact that I owned an Audi before and just needed a change. The one big thing I notice is the driving dynamics, the Bmw is so much more fun in the corners. A completely different car, almost feels rwd even though it's an xdrive. The Audi pushed through the corners and it had the sport differential.

Can't say I'd go back to Audi unless an rs4 hits America. And if there was an awd m3 I'd still go with Bmw
I'm glad you're happy with your decision.

I agree that the new S4 is pretty unaggressive in styling. But personally, there's no way I'd buy a new F30 within a year of its replacement. I'd either get the new B9 S4 or wait for the new 2019 G20 3-series.
