2008 4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Audi financial had geed financing interest rates, vs others manufacturers, Volvo and Subaru.
2008 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
An A4 with a V6 and automatic transmission can get pricey but Audi throws in enough standard features to make it worthwhile.
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Since a new model is being introduced, there were several lightly used models available and they were aggressively priced.
2005 4dr Sedan turbocharged 170hp 1.8L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Good value
2004 4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed manual AWD
I got a rediculous deal. Once in a lifetime really.
2002 4dr Sedan 220-horsepower 3.0L V6

2010 4dr Sedan supercharged 333hp 3.0L V6
7-speed automated manual AWD
Relatively pricey, however compares well with competition (BMW 335).
2009 4dr Sedan turbocharged 211hp 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
It is a pricey car for the fairly average performance.
2008 4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Expensive to buy and run
2008 4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed manual AWD
You pay a premium on the S4 over the A4. Just up to you to figure out if the performance is worth the price. You are right up there with a nicely configured BMW 335.
2008 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6
6-speed manual AWD
The A4 is not cheap, however it is worth the money.
2007 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4

$40,000 price tag (fully loaded w/ nav)
2007 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6

exspensive car
2007 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
7-speed shiftable CVT FWD
For the same as a base A4 2.0t I got a LOADED Passat. No incentives offered on a lease. VW wanted zero down, Audi wanted $3,000.00 down. Same terms, same monthly payment.
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual AWD
Can get pricey
2006 4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4

What was on the sticker is what you paid. No negotiation, No discounts!!
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD

2006 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.1L V6
6-speed manual AWD
You pay for performance and workmanship
2006 4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual AWD
Even buying second hand, I paid a bit too much. A manual 6-spd wagon with sports package is not your typical configuration. Compare to other alternatives, Audi does run a bit more expensive.
2005 4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed manual AWD
It is a very expensive car, though in the right area for that level of combined luxury and performance. Other, perfectly adequate vehicles are available for much less.
2002 4dr Wagon turbocharged 170hp 1.8L I4
5-speed manual FWD
Way too expensive for what it was.
2002 4dr Sedan 220-horsepower 3.0L V6

2010 4dr SUV 245-horsepower 3.5L V6 Hybrid

The price is very high if compared to a Mazda CX-9, with similar features, similar performances and similar (i guess) reliability
2009 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
more than $12000 more than the Murano with all the same bells and whistles
2008 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
Overpriced
2008 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
all of the above come with a price tag, which, over the long term, balance out with hopefully lower maintenance and operating costs
2006 4dr SUV 208-horsepower 3.3L V6 Hybrid
CVT AWD
This can be an expensive car. I would never buy one new and while I think there is value for money, I have issues with spending 55k on a car. I bought mine used on Ebay for a great price including shipping and have a friend who has done the same.
