What would you choose:

pros for both:

Audi:
awd
can be had for much cheaper… (05-06) around the $25K mark
Warrenty. 06’s with 60K mile maintnence free
4cyl mpg

BMW:
it’s a bimmer.
more reliable than audi
more hp
looks a bit classier (IMO)

an audi a4 b7(newest body) can be had for around the $25K with a full warrenty…the 2.0t is a quick motor…and much more hp can be got out of it with a simple tune.
The bimmer (e46) is a bit more dated…as the newest bmw 330 is well over the $30K mark.

I know i’m comparing a 2002/03 car to a 2005/06 car but what would you choose.
taking into consideration performance,looks,warrenty ect…

or would you buy something else in the sport sedan market?

neither are sport sedans. both are sedans.

3

just save your money and buy an e30 and do suspension work, you’ll love it

4

I thought E46’s were getting well under $25k?

Meh, I dunno. I don’t like relying on warranties and (maybe I’m wrong, MPD47 correct me if I am :P) I think the bimmer would be more likely to be reliable? So I’d probably go bimmer. Although audi quattro is attractive.

Fuck I dunno. :gotme:

Yeah… Easy out for you here but STi or Evo my friend… you can get them still with low mileage for under $20k easy and I feel they both are much sexier cars too.

A coworker has a 330 with the m package he might be willing to part with… if you are interested. Red, too.

audi… :slight_smile:

true, but if these are my choices i pick the bmw

11

how bout you stop buying/selling cars.

12

Oh, but if we have to chose.

VAG w/ CPO. Spend the price diff on tune/injectors/suspension/hookers/blow, dust the bimmer with a car full of whores and still have money in the bank.

13

If you pay $30k for an E46 330i, you really ARE retarded.

14

ughh… make a decision and stick with it for over a month… christ… lol

there are a bunch of 04’s for under that even.

you can find a early 05 S4 for under your A4 price

Guys,
This isn’t a “what should I buy thread”
Trust me…I won’t ask you guys because the only response would be “something with 2 bedrooms and a bath”
HAHA.

Nah, I was just wondering what you guys thought.

I would say these two are considered sport sedans. A regular sedan would be a camry or an impala.

Check ebay for 330’s… decent ones (under 40K miles) are going for$25K+

The sti/evo is cool… but I’d personally rather have an a4 as a daily…much more classier and nicer looking.
Plus insurance on an evo or sti is :roll2:

Given your propensity for vehicle turnover - I’d look at resale value first. :stuck_out_tongue:
