2008 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD |
Audi has highest German-made value retention. Buy a 1-year old certified pre-owned and save the 20% depreciation in the first year. see full Audi A3 / S3 / RS3 review |
2007 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD |
Audi is well known for their engineering prowess, and that was a big plus for me. They may not be the best-knwon luxury make, but they are making a big push in the U.S. market for brand awareness. At the dealer, customer treatment is extraordinary! see full Audi A3 / S3 / RS3 review |

The Audis are known have reliable engines (except maybe for 2.0TDI) and offer a very well balanced ride. Also the finishing, materials and styling in the interior are of high quality. see full Audi A3 / S3 / RS3 review |

Every night I hear the Buick slogan. You have no idea how many customers get in the car and say"THAT'S not a buick!" Yes it is. Trust me. I bought it. And no, I'm not old. I'm 26. I'm far from old. Mind you, it isONLYold people who claim old people drive buicks. It's the 50 and up crowd who claim they're "old lady cars" without knowing how many youngsters actually drive them. They're not specifically for old people; they're for successful people. People who have made good financial decisions but don't care to flaunt it. People who enjoy comfort and luxury but don't enjoy the flashiness and pretentiousness of a Cadillac, Mercedes, infiniti, or the like. see full Buick Verano review |
