Is this really 22% more car? Is it really 22% better? WTF is Audi thinking.

BAH, all the M and AMG cars are WAY overpriced too. They must make CRAZY profits on these cars. No way they cost that much more to produce than the A4s, and god knows the A4s are WAY overpriced too. Audi, BMW, and Mercedes need to wake up. Their cars aren't worth what they want for them. The Japanese are going to get their stuff together sooner or later and kill them. That will be a good day.

F*ck you Audi! And that goes for BMW and Mercedes too.

dude chill, your like on a mission....being "German Car" owners, we expect what we pay and we know why we pay it. Nothin beats german engineering Period! They are the most maticulous people when it comes to design. I think you are most pissed off with how the american counterparts deal with the situation then you are with the parent german companied. I agree AoA and the other US constituants are a pain in the *** sometimes, but deal with Audi AG and then see a good company. I would love to pay less for an Audi but just because I am not I am not going to complain about it because thats part of the teritory of German Car ownership.

Default Yeah, I'm on a tear, I just don't see how the German makes can justify their pricing.

It's all BMW's fault. Stupid brand ****** paying anything for "image"... BAH!!!

HEY YOU KIDS, GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

Oh, and this whole "german engineering" thing is totaly a MYTH. Sorry, but I'm calling BS on that one....

I own one of these cars, do you? Have you driven a Japanese car lately? Honestly, it seems like you're talking out of your ***. Sorry, but that's how it seems. Put aside your preconceptions and "brand identities" and look at this objectively. These cars at these prices in this economy don't make sense. Go test drive a Honda Accord EX V6 that you can get out the door for $25K, or an Acura TL Type S and get back to me. Sure, these cars are no match for many of the German sports sedans, but are the German cars really worth SOOOOO much more? I think not. A small premium, perhaps, but the premiums they're asking are HUGE. It's out of control. And it IS going to hurt them, and soon.
