I really like the deep blue; it reminds me of the Santorin Blue Audi offered for the older B5 A4/S4.

The new corporate grill of Audi is starting to grow on me.

I didn't know A4s were selling for close to $40,000 now?

No offense, but I personally wouldn't buy a A4 for close to $40k.

I think there are equal or better cars to be had for that price.

Enjoy the car.

I was down there last week looking for an A4 quattro manual with 2.0T. They didn't have any. Keep us up to date on how you like the car.

It was Leith Audi in Cary. They didn't have the car we wanted there either....took them almost 2 weeks to locate this one and have it shipped to us. Most of the Quattro S-line cars were coming with the auto tranny w/paddle shift which we tried and it sucks.....needed the 6 speed so had them locate it. If you need to talk to a salesman our guy was great so if want info just PM me.

Yeah, I wouldn't buy one for $40k either.....we leased it.....and our payments are about as much as they would be if we bought a $28,000 car

We go through cars too quick so I'm just doing 24 month leases from now on.

$40K is about right. Sounds like its almost loaded, except for NAV. S-line package is not cheap, but is well worth it. Nice choice of automobile.

i am jelous. when i bought the evo, i looked pretty seriously at those, i am glad i made the decision that i did, and if i had deep enough pockets i would have one for the mrs as well. they just look great, the styling is one of the sexiest cars on the road. easily.

You've got to take me for a ride when you get it chipped so, I can see if that's what I really want. I'm on the fence about A4, 330, or keeping the Evo for a while longer and modding somemore.

No it's not. That's how much you'll pay for any highline German car these days. Audi's are pretty competitive on price, and you can get a Quattro Audi for the same money as a 2WD BMW or Mercedes. And I think Audi is the best looking of the bunch right now.

Also, Audi has a pretty aggresive 24 mo lease deal on the new 06 A4's right now, so while the MSRP does matter, you'll have to look @ your bottom line payment. You can lease a $33,000 A4 quattro right now for $369/month with a little over $1000 down total via Audiusa.com

The car pictured has the $3000 S Line package and other high end options. The 2.0 car with the new 6 speed manual is a very sweet package. It's a blast to drive, plenty quick, and the gas mileage is pretty stellar, too.
