Reviewing: 2008 Audi A4 2.0T Quattro

2008 Audi
Model: A4
Trim: S-Line 2.0T Quattro
Color: Quartz Metallic
Drivetrain: 6-speed manual

2.0L 200 HP

Optional Upgrades:
Dual power seats
Dual Heated Seats
Bose Premium Sound System
Bluetooth

Average Cost (Gas Tank): $49.65 (Premium)
Maintenance: Paid through 100k

Pros:
I simply love the car. Whether it's hugging a turn in the city, or letting loose on the highway, the car remains quiet, tight, and easy to handle. Unlike comparable models, Audi's real-time AWD hugs turns. The 60/40 front bias gives it a more drivable feel, while still enabling it to weave in and out of traffic. Little to no body roll (which was a huge selling point). The attention to detail both internally and externally leave no doubt that this car was designed with the driver as well as passengers in mind. (This is noticeable both in the front and rear passenger seats -- as each has plenty of room to relax).

Cons:
0-60: 6.5 seconds (though in all fairness it feels faster than test numbers indicate)

I'd recommend Audi to anyone in the luxury car-buyer bracket - It's a great value for the money, and is definitely one of (if not THE) most drivable vehicle on the road. A joy to own. Period.

Pros — Handling, Appearance, Styling, Quality, Cost of Ownership
Cons — Performance (only slightly)

Reviewing: 2008 Audi A4 2.0T

Handling, braking, sporty feeling/acceleration.
Lowered S-Line appearance.
Gas Mileage on highway is just amazing. Gives me around 34-35 mpg. In the city its gives me b/w 26-29.
This car a dual-character. It gets very sporty when throttle is on fire, and at the same time gets very calm when cruising.

Pros — Total value and performance package
Cons — Couldn't find any,,,

Reviewing: 2008 Audi A4 2.0T Quattro

Fantastic car with great pickup while remaining very fuel efficient.  Traditionally brilliant Audi interior enhanced by the S-line and Titanium packages.  The S-line suspension is further bolstered by the ever amazing Audi Quattro all-wheel-drive system.  All in all a excellent introduction to the Luxury Class while remaining youthful and sporty.

Pros — Quick, Efficient, Well Appointed
Cons — Pricey

Great car, looks and drives well..... This is a very good solid car that handles much better than it's predecessor. Extra's are quite expensive but the build quality is second to none. The LED lights are a must for this car as it makes it stand out on the road from the rest.

Pros — LED lights, ride, handling and looks.
Cons — Price.

The armrest is positioned poorly and obstructs the cup holder and accessory outlet. It is amazing car to drive, it handles extremely well, especially with the sport suspension package added. It can be chipped to gain 50 horespower. i can't seem to chirp the tires as the quattro drive stick s like glue!

Pros — performance, handling, build quality
Cons — minor issues with interior conveniences

With the 1·8T, Audi has put in a fairly economical engine that performs when it needs to—and sips fuel the other times. With a sublime eight-speed automatic gearbox (far better than in the Mercedes-Benz C-Klasse), the car does deliver above-average mileage, but it finds it hard to put the power to the road without a Quattro system, scrambling to get grip up front. The interior is beautiful as always (BMW could still learn a thing or two, as could Mercedes-Benz) and the sat-nav is fairly clever though it is missing Karo Drive and the bypass in Wellington. Looks-wise, the A4 has lost that Bauhaus rationality as with the B6 and B7, but in many respects it looks sleeker and the proportions are closer to those of its chief German rear-wheel-drive rivals—for better or worse. A great daily driver, comfortable over long distances, but don’t expect an S3 hidden under the new exterior. The 2·0TD is the big seller and I would probably go for that if it were my money.

Pros — Interior design, gearbox, fuel economy, satellite navigation
Cons — Grip

6 speed is killer, car looks nice, fun to drive, engine a bit noisy, AWD is key

Pros — AWD, manual transmission, sportiness
Cons — small back seat, engine is noisy and a bit underpowered without the stick shift

Not the fastest car on the road, but it has an overall balance that few have.  The Quattro system makes a big difference.

I love my car with an exception to the relatively soft clutch and the OEM tires which I will be replacing as soon
as possible.
