#1 of 2 Help with Purchase - BMW 328 ix or A4 2.0 by montrota Jun 12, 2009 (6:38 am)
I had a 2003 Audi 1.8T which I loved. Recently hit by a drunk driver and my car was totaled. May end up buying newer version of the same thing I had, but of course part of me thinks I should try something new. Considering the BMW 328ix. Test drove both and like them. I thought the BMW felt a little smaller in the driver's seat - does this seem accurate? I live in snowy climate and AWD is very important. Will BMW handle as well in the snow as my Audi did? Just realized that Audi no longer covers maintenance. Any estimate of how much this will cost me for 4 yrs - this will really allow me to compare apples to apples. Thanks!

Replying to: montrota (Jun 12, 2009 6:38 am) You can prepay Audicare for 45,000 miles service. Around $700.00-750.00. A4 is much roomier than 328. Consider optional sports package with summer tires and switch to real snow tires. Drive them and decide. BMW is hurting so maybe you can squeeze them hard.
