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

Toyotas are reputed to be bulletproof and that was our experience with a 1994 Previa minivan see full Toyota Highlander review
2007 4dr SUV 208-horsepower 3.3L V6 Hybrid

This is my 3rd Toyota/Lexus. What else can I say, they are great cars/appliances. Although not a styling icon, Toyota/Lexus knows how to build what most people want/need in a reliable good quality vehicle. see full Toyota Highlander review
2006 4dr SUV 208-horsepower 3.3L V6 Hybrid

Previous Toyota SUV lasted 25+ years with great performance and low maintenance. The new vehicle was the first affordable hybrid SUV available to the public. see full Toyota Highlander review
2006 4dr SUV 215-horsepower 3.3L V6

Not much to say, Toyota has made great products. So many people I talk to discuss the fact that they have over 150K miles of maintenance only repairs. see full Toyota Highlander review
2004 4dr SUV 230-horsepower 3.3L V6

Well...up until the issues with cars accelerating on their own their reputation was untarnished. Still...very few cars exhibit this trait so I still would buy another one. see full Toyota Highlander review
