the audi interior looks bland and boring. the seats dont look like they have much support from that angle. the caddy will be more reliable and faster too. looks like a :tdown: to the overpriced audi. Brian ---

i would drive either one, both are great cars for what they are. caddy interior is definitely not too shabby. finally somewhat modern looking in comparison to other gm models. hate pop up nav though, and they really need to update the gauge cluster. ---
