.....I may end up buying a BMW or Mercedes.....
I think this is a risky approach.... Remember your customer base Mr de Nysschen! This is probably why they want to do a gradual price increase, not to scare their customer base. Also, the competition reading that may want to be a little more attractive to Audi buyers, to have them switch over.... So this is a risky business. Remember who buys Audis!!!!!!

So much for Audi depreciation ....
Both were $50-51K sticker new.
In my experience, Benz has a much lower total cost of ownership.

I had thought that historically too, but at least in my area late model '01 or better
of all German cars are taking about the same hit and all of them seem to be in the shop about as much too...not sure, other than complexity of systems what that is all about as they used to hold their value better and be at least as reliable or more so than most American marques.
