Should i get an Audi A4 quatro or Acura TSX?

I would appreciate reasons for which one you choose and or pros and cons to each ones or even personal experiences with one the cars. Thank You.Should i get an Audi A4 quatro or Acura TSX?
I agree with the previous poster- ifunewwh. I would avoid both vehicles for several reasons. Although the Acura TSX has rock soild reliability, it is front wheel drive and honestly, the AWD Audi will out drive the TSX, especially in bad weather. Audi's in general have horrific reliability records which partly account for their poor depreciation rates- only a few points above Hyundai and Kia. Do you want to shell out serious cash for a vehicle that will hold less than 1/2 its value in three years?



Another factor to consider is that Audi makes changes to their models every two years which means this years model (2007) is already outdated next year. Additionally, take a look at Consumer affairs and read the horror stories about Audi's reliability and high maintenance costs. If you do you may save yourself some serious money and trouble.



On the other hand, I would highly recommend the 2008 Cadillac CTS. It was just awarded the 2008 Motor Trend Car of the Year award and beat out the Audi A5/S5 among many other cars which people highly praise. In my opinion, test driving the CTS will change your opinion about all vehicles- you will not believe it to be an American car and better yet, a fully loaded AWD CTS 3.6L costs as much as an Audi A4, stripped BMW 335i/528i or MB C350- and it has far more interior space and technology (ie- a 40 GB hard drive for movies, pictures and music, built in USB/iPod connection, Bluetooth etc etc etc)



Or for something very surprising, test drive the Lincoln MKS. Super looks and AWD like the CTS. Just passing along some info you may find useful.
German made baby! Audi.Should i get an Audi A4 quatro or Acura TSX?
The Audi is a fantastic car.... until it breaks. Audi's are known for being finiky, and are expensive to fix when things do go wrong. TSX is also a nice car but is amoung the most religable cars on the road and considerably less expensive to fix if something does go wrong.
Agree with Howie, above.

Also, the initial cost of the Audi is likely to be considerably more than the Acura, unless you've found an outstanding deal.Should i get an Audi A4 quatro or Acura TSX?
Forget both the cars get an 08 Lincoln MKZ with 263Hp and AWD,don't forget to get sync and all the other sweet sh*t it comes with.
I would get the AudI A4 quattro because i look more for performance, driving dynamics and build quality over reliability. If you are looking for the cheapest to own it would probably be the TSX but the Audi will have better driving dynamics road feel and build quality wise there is no comparison the Audi has the more luxurious and higher quality feeling interior. Honestly they are both nice but i think the Audi is still a step above the Acura i think the Audi has the advantage in just about every aria other than cost of ownership. The quattro system is a Huge advantage over front wheel drive and honestly once you get out of front drive cars i would be surprised if you went back AWD is far superior to front drive in bad weather and good weather and Rear drive definitly the best in good weather over all there is really no reason to buy a front drive car other than cost if you can afford to get an AWD or rear wheel drive car its well worth it.
Hands down I would go with the TSX the standard features alone make the car worth it: http://www.forbesautos.com/gallery/2008/鈥?/a>
Japanese made Lexus IS350. If you can't afford it, the TSX will be just fine. Can't go wrong with Japanese car. you can keep it for a long long time with low cost of maintenance. I own a Japanese and my son has his troublesome A4 Quattro. I put my money in my bank but he puts his money into repair bills.
I think that we can all see that almost everyone is saying 2 get the audi, the audi is the BEST one for sure. It has better build quality american cars DONT!!!!!!!
