As one who owns 2 BMWs and 2 Audis (none of them really new) I can see both sides of the argument. Living in the snow belt however tips the scale to Audi for its Quattro. Once drove an A4 and S4 back to back and didn't feel the S4 was worth the extra money. The A3 with 220hp would interest me if I were wealthier but I'll stick with my 128 (230hp) for a long time. Another BMW advantage is all the good "club" activity AND all the fabulous DIY's available [Bav Auto, Pelican, etc] and soon I plan on installing a Koni suspension on my 128.
