I just picked up a Linear wagon this week with auto and premium package. I leased but the cap cost was $32,200 (I know the price of the wagon is about $800-900 more).
My Last car was an A4 1.8T (sounds like this is what you had also) and there really is no comparison between the two in terms of size. 9-5 is much more comfortable. I also find that the Linear seems much more refined compared to the A4. Nicer ride, quieter and definitely quicker. I have been surprised by the quickness of the Linear given its a relatively large car with only 185 horses. It's definitely not the Aero but it is certainly more than adequate for everyday driving. Has power where it needs it.
You say that Onstar is great. I haven't really used it yet, but what makes you say this? Which feature(s) do you find most useful?
