Good looking car. Put me in the Audi > BMW camp, I've owned two Audis and currently on #3, and have also owned three BMWs and two Minis (so basically a BMW). I love the way BMWs drive but after having five, I won't own another. I find them to be incredibly poorly made, with an interior that makes some GM products look good.

My biggest complaint on Audi products is access, their engineers are masters at packaging crap in every nook and cranny. It's common to have to remove multiple things to access the one thing that you are trying to access. With that said, the 1.8T is a 4-cylinder in an engine bay that is sized to fit a V6 or V8, so it won't be too bad. It's also a zippy and reliable motor if maintained, they get good MPG and people mod them to big HP without a lot of upgrades. Audis are known for electrical gremlins, so test all of the gizmos before buying. If it's as clean as it looks, and if it has been well maintained, I say go for it.
