A6 In the Money (Money Magazine, that Is)!
http://money.cnn.com/2005/12/15/Autos/carreviews/lux_sedan_comparo/index.htm
Thought this might be of some interest. A Money Magazine comparison of five cars: Audi, Acura, BMW, Infiniti, Lexus.
Audi comes out on top! Click on "See the Gallery" near the bottom of the page.
Referencing the recent realiability thread; my Sept. car with 3,000 miles has been fine since the out-of-the-box problem with a non-functioning nav.
I love the car and drive it with more gusto than the previous allroad which annoys the wife who also thinks the "features" (nav., voice, MMI,) are unnecessarily complex which leads to me being distracted a bit (and driving beyond her comfort zone). Ah, well.

Re: for the lazy:
Thanks, BRZA. Wondered why the url just didn't show up as a link, but I don't post here much and there must be some steps that need to be taken.
By the way, my car is a 3.2; failed to mention that. Looking at the thread just above this one, figured it might be worth noting. Oddly, I think the 3.2 is a "better" motor than the 2.7T. The 2.7T has that rush alright, but it starts at about 2,000 rpm and seems to shut down at around 5,000 rpm. The 3.2 runs progressively right to the red-line, continuing to make power and works better with the new 6 spd auto than did the 2.7T did for with the fiver.
