The fact that there is finally a review of a car with a damned clutch is pretty exciting for me, even if the car is a 4WD Passat in new garb with a brutal markup (/s).

For some reason I love the proportions of this car much better then the new 3 series. It looks quite a bit smaller, I like that look a lot. I'd still rather have an E90 though (sorry automatch)

Haha I was just being sarcastic (should have specified). I remember hearing a bunch of people talking about how they are "practically the same," so I threw that in there. I think you should run with Quattro kicked in yo!

I can't hate on that...I'd rather "drive" the E90 but own the A4.

Why thank you. The best trolling is always unintentional!

This makes my head hurt. You might be right. The 2.0T probably gets better gas milage and it has quattro. I'm just not sure....

They really need to do away with the score in the end, just like Jalopnik does. I don't think an item as complex as a car can be accurately rated in this manner, even if it's just a subjective opinion of the reviewer. I'd prefer more detailed reviews that describe the cars' strong and weak points in detail over a completely irrelevant % based rating system.

The most boring review by Harrismonkey yet. Can't blame him though.

I drove this and the new F30 BMW 3. The Audi was nice, but the BMW was just that much nicer. I can't say I've regretted my purchase one second.

Dude your F30 is beautiful! I love that color. I've only driven the E90 so I can't judge anyone here.
