Default A4 1.8T vs. C230K
1.8T or C230K? 170hp, or 189hp? i think the benz has the upper hand especially when considering the exterior styling with the AMG body kit, drilled rotors, etc. any other comments?

Actually try driving a C-class, though- It's not nearly as sporty and involving as you'd think.

Default my '03 A4 1.8T vs. wife's '04 C230K
interior = A4
exterior = A4
performance = A4(chipped)
braking = C230K
price = A4

the benz does have a nice brake setup, calipers are brembo, rotors i believe are 330mm x 26mm. that's the only thing i like. but i have yet to install my B5 S4 brakes. i'd take my A4 over the benz any day.

Default in all honestly, the benz drives like ***.
seriously, go drive it, it doesn't even compete as far as the level of interest in actually driving it.
