If you like the idea of paying thousands less for a European sports sedan that is as frugal with fuel as it is quick off the line, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better choice than the A4. Optional quattro all-wheel drive is a bonus for snow belt residents.
If you think a bona fide premium sports sedan has rear-wheel drive and a normally aspirated, non-turbo engine — like the Mercedes-Benz C350, Infiniti G35 and Lexus IS 350 — you may find the Audi A4 a little impure for your tastes. Taller folks might also find the driving position somewhat confining.
