#18 of 20 Audi vs. BMW 5 Series?? by gardis Nov 16, 2008 (4:18 pm)
I looked at Audi today. I cannot figure out, is the A4 the same size as a 3 series BMW? And the A6 would be the equivalent to the 5 series? Although the A6 looks longer somehow. To me the A4 lookoed bigger than the 3 series. I want a car that's roomier than the 3 series which I currently drive. I prefer the 5 series, but want to be sure of what I'm doing. Thanks Guys. How's Audi on the mechanicals? I keep cars a long time. Are they good cars? Replies to this message: tayl0rd (Nov 25, 2008 12:38 pm)

Replying to: gardis (Nov 16, 2008 4:18 pm) The new A4 is bigger than the 3-series, but they still compete in the same class.   A4 = 3-series = C-class = IS A6 = 5-series = E-class = GS A8 = 7-series = S-class = LS

Replying to: satyarg (Sep 16, 2008 9:14 am) I feel the same way, about the GS 350. I drove the new ES as a loaner Car when I dropped my GS for service. I felt the ES was even quieter than and more roomier inside than my GS 350.  I even parked them side by side and the GS is longer and taller in exterior dimensions. If only I knew Lexus would bring the ES to these levels, I would have waited and saved big- almost 10- 12 K.   Coming to BMW vs Lexus- The Beemer 5 series is much sportier than the Lexus in looks and handling. however my GS 350 is much luxirious inside ( the 5 series is bland in comparision once inside). The ride is a lot comfier, silent, the controls are made with almost flawless precision and the stability control is awesome. The only complaint I have is there is a HUMP in the Back seat leg room space which in not comfortable for three adults in the back on long drives. The ES does not have this do not know why the japanese geniuses included it in a large car like the GS.   I myself brouht the GS 350 AWD because it was less expensive than the 5 Xiseries and am Happy with the gas mileage 29 m/gallon on highways for AWD and the compromise it offers between luxury and handling. It finally comes to personal preference as both are very good.
