Other Choices:

The 2009 Audi A4’s chief rivals are the BMW 3-Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. The BMW 3-Series is perhaps the most popular, though in its current edition, it’s become heavier and quite expensive, yet its turbocharged in-line six offers brilliant power. The Mercedes C-Class has more capable handling than before, but rear-seat room is still cramped and its interior styling a little complex. The Infiniti G35 sports BMW-like handling with a distinctly Japanese flair, while the Cadillac CTS is perhaps GM’s best effort yet, with remarkable European-style handling, ample V-6 power, and a world-class entertainment system.

  2. Wish the performance was a little stronger

    Sounds like a great new audi a4, but performance wise it doesnt seem like it can compete with some of the makes.

    I took delivery of my new 2009 Audi A4 1.8T exactly a week ago today. Not only is it a total head-turner, the performance has eclipsed the previous model. Biased is probably an understatement - this is my 6th Audi - but this is a truly awesome vehicle. Much quicker, holds the road with confidence, and the hesitation experienced with the previous model has been eliminated. Even with the increase in horsepower and torque, my first tank of gas averaged 30.9 mpg!
    With Bluetooth and an intuitive cockpit, the hands-free media experiences couldn't be easier.
    The longer wheelbase smooths out the ride, and the roomier interior is a joy for extra passengers.
    And don't you just love the LED running lights?
    My only complaint so far: I use a Blackberry which syncs with Outlook. Since I have 600+ contacts, they won't download so that they can be accessed solely through the car instead of dialed from the handset.

    I've just turned my first 1000 miles on my 2009 A4 3.2 quattro. The factory 0-60 est. of 6.3 sec is an understatement. It is no doubt under 6.0. My '05 TT 225hp is rated at 6.3 sec and this is much quicker. The new longer wheelbase gives the A4 a luxury "E-class" feel with a sportier command. I test drove this car (July'08) at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma and compared it against the BMW-3, MBZ C-class and Lexus-IS. None come close to the feel of the Audi. I prefer to drive this car as a daily driver over ANY other car and I own Audi's, VW's, Porsche and MBZ.

    Have had the car for about 3 weeks now, cannot complain a bit. It moves effortlessly.
    Only thing i hate is that the exhaust is a little too quite. It needs a mean rumble a quite tone tho. You dont notice the car going from (km/hr) 0-100.
    This car goes 0-60 in under the 6.9 seconds for shore.

    I have had this car for about 3 months now and couldn't be more disappointed. As a previous A4 owner I went with the car because I loved my car. BUT BEWARE the 2009 has a defect in a number of the cars which AUDI has decided to ignore and just sell the cars. The defect which they claim is not a "safety issue" leaves you frustrated with every other shortcoming the new A4 seems to have. PLEASE protect yourself and don't buy the car. I've been working on taking care of the defect for as long a I've had the car. There are 4 other owners in the dealership I bought my car from alone that have the same issue and AUDI is refusing to fix the problem. And aside from that the car is a total disappointment. I wish I could take my decision to purchase the car back but now I'm stuck in this hell so PLEASE PROTECT YOURSELF and don't buy the 2009 A4. The defect is in the steering wheel of the car and leaves me just disappointed and sad to be spending money on a defective car.
