An A4 with a V6 and automatic transmission can get pricey but Audi throws in enough standard features to make it worthwhile.

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.

The quality of materials is exceptional. I paid $28,300 for my 2005 S4 with 25,000 miles in July 2008. The fact that it was a $50k car new meant that it had better build quality, materials, and design than new cars in the $25-30k range.
