The a4-

I like the way it looks, but its just not thrilling to drive. I know theres some power there, but it just doesn't FEEL like there is. The tiptronic is moderately fun, but I have a feeling that I'd rarely ever use it. I love the brushed aluminum on the A-pillars but the trunk is really small, long but not wide, since the car isn't very wide. The sales guy tried to convince me that the blindspot on the A4 is smaller than the one on the Saab, but they seemed about the same to me. Sales guy tried to tell me that I would have a relatively "unique" car if I were to go with Audi, since they don't make a lot of convertibles. Isn't the A4 sedan/coupe like the best selling car in its class? I mean they are everywhere, so the cabriolet has a ragtop..the rest of the body looks the same.

Quattro will be an option come June, thats a plus.

The big A4 plus: YOU CAN GET RED LEATHER INTERIOR. mmmmmmmmm

However, I felt happier when I got into my Saab to leave. I just like it more. Its five years old, but it didn't feel like its an old car. :)

I stopped in the Volvo dealer, but they didn't even have one in the showroom to look at.

Tomorrow I'm stopping at the BMW dealer and then the Saab dealer. I'm debating stopping at the Mercedes dealer, too. I'm such a dedicated student. ;)
